People's creativity in the service of their own misinformed ideologies never fails to amaze me.  What, we don't like what science has to tell us?  Fine, we'll just make some shit up!  Current case in point:

I hope you don't mind if I share this to my Facebook. I've already seen this pix being cited as evidence to reconsider abortion.

Not at all. In fact, after just a teensy bit of research, I discovered it was actually a model. Inaccurate, but not photoshopped.

They obviously decided the means justify the end. That is so wrong, especially in an era when people re-circulate every damn shocking thing they see without ever thinking to verify it first. Thanks for sharing this.

The Truth

It is difficult to get objective facts especially from the liberal media on somebodys payroll. If you cut it all down to hard science and strict fact you sound cold and calloused, but In the end we do have to look at Quality of Life for the person to be born would you really want that life, Or would you like to have a shot at something better? One cannot destroy an everlasting soul But you can make someone have a happy productive Life, or a disapointing and Dismal one. Sometimes
Hard Choices
have to be Made.

Just to point out the pervasiveness of the mentality, I recall a mention by someone around here the other day of a couple of "$1500" items... Pure hyperbole to engender an irrational emotional reaction remains a standard trope of so many people. I do agree so heartily that this kind of disrespect, and it's sources, should be stomped out at every encounter.

Does it matter what a 12 week old foetus LOOKS like?

Apparently. And it matters whether the anti-choice people are honest or not. If their pictures are wrong, then their other claims may be wrong also.
