The most effective and reliable contraceptive methods are abortifcants. Taking them is responsible. Should you find yourself in a position where you have had sex and might be pregnant, a morning after pill is responsible.
The most reliable contraceptive method is not to have sex unless you are able and willing to accept the possibility of a pregnancy and motherhood. This means understanding that sex should be reserved for marriage.
Since people refuse to accept that sex should be reserved for marriage and apparently cannot exercise control and restraint over their sexual appetites and passions, preferring to be mastered by them rather than master them, people are going to have sex outside of marriage. I get that. Use a condom. Use of a condom prevents the need for expensive birth control pills that work as abortifacients. Or use a condom and birth control that works as a true contraceptive. Or get pregnant, bring the child to term and put the child up for adoption. Or do any one of a 100 things besides have an abortion.
Abortion simply is not necessary.
If you find that you are pregnant despite using contraception, an early abortion is responsible.
How is murder of a child in any way responsible?
If you are happily pregnant and your circumstances change such that you are no longer capable of supporting the pregnancy, an abortion is responsible.
Again, how is murder of a child in any way responsible? Responsibility means accepting the consequences of your choices. Irresponsibility is is attempting to shirk them or run from them. There are consequences to sexual relationships, sir. Pregnancy is one of them.
Reasonable and responsible people master their passions and exercise restraint. Reasonable and responsible people master their passions rather than being mastered by their passions. Reasonable and responsible people own up to their mistakes and take responsibility for them. What that means is that reasonable and responsible people accept pregnancy as a consequence of sex. Responsible people bring the child to term and put it up for adoption if their circumstances are such that they cannot care for the child.
If you find that your unborn child is hopelessly disabled and unlikely to survive birth, an abortion is responsible.
I do not agree, but at least in such a case, I can understand why one would argue that. Remember, however, I limiting our discussion to abortion on demand, not rare circumstances where there are mitigating medical factors in play, rape or incest.
Besides, once again, what does this have to do with anything? You have told me repeatedly that you will not accept any restrictions on abortion, even if exceptions are made in rare cases like rape, incest, health of the mother, or other serious medical issue. Thus, why bring up these rare cases and then argue "This is why we need abortion?"
People who have abortions are taking responsibility and dealing with an issue in their lives which might otherwise overwhelm them.
No they aren't. They are taking the easy way out and attempting to shirk responsibility for their choices.
Since they can put their child up for adoption, again, why is abortion, outside of rare cases even necessary?
Those who have abortions are not all feckless drug addicts whose low self-esteem leads them to have unprotected sex with anyone who asks. Even if they were, they have the right to seek an abortion to avoid their lives being made worse.
Who said they were?
