On a personal level, I do not believe in abortion. However, it is not my place to force my beliefs onto another person. Those who would try to use their religion to try to force this issue....God gave us this nifty little thing called Free Will. We have a God given right to make choices, be they good or bad choices, they are our personal choices to make. Will there be an accounting of those choices, yes, I believe there will be. On the other hand, those who are trying to force their beliefs onto others via religion will also have to answer for that choice. When as Christians we begin to judge others and condemn them based on our beliefs we turn them further from God and to me that is the bigger sin.
What to do about the tens of thousands of those blessings starving to death around the world? Yours is a lofty goal but has not much to do with reality.
Every acorn is not an oak tree. Every handful of cells is not a PERSON, this is absurd. This planet is groaning under the weight of human overpopulation, and this is what these people are concerned about ? Personhood for zygotes ? REALLY ? Get over your hysteria and think about this poor planet. We already cannot find jobs for everyone, we cannot provide health care for everyone, we cannot look after the old and the sick, the orphanages are crowded. Our water is polluted, our air is polluted, the polar ice caps are melting, and you want to protect every single zygote ? This is the insanity of the uneducated human mind.
If the GOP doesn't get off this attempt to deny women their human rights.......the party is likely to fall into oblivion. This attitude simply will NOT succeed in the US.
The amendment would open the door for charges of involuntary manslaughter or negligent homicide against pregnant women that suffer a miscarriage due to an accident, such as tripping and falling or accidentally or being hit by a vehicle if they are deemed clumsy or inattentive. There are so many variations on the theme that even Solomon would be baffled as to a judgement. A person is an ex-uteri being capable of existing without organic connectivity to another human.

If this didn't pass in Mississippi, it doesn't have any chance in those states. Don't these people have more immediate concerns? Why are the same people who complain about an intrusive government the same ones who want their (usually peculiar) religous beliefs enforced by (wait for it) THE GOVERNMENT?
"Unborn children are being killed on a daily basis in our state and country, and it's urgent that we protect them," said Hairston, a forestry consultant.
There is no such a thing as an "unborn child". The fetus becomes a child at birth.
Hey, how about all those chicken eggs they are eating in MS. God doesn't want them to abort those poor creatures.
Hey next it will be illegal to masturbate because you are killing potential lives. And we can't have any women have their periods because they are wasting eggs. I say lock em all up.

Love the fetus.
Hate the child.
