Topic: Anti abortion and anti euthanasia


  
  Abortion debate - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Abortion debates, especially pertaining to the legal ramifications of abortion laws, are often spearheaded by advocacy groups.
Abortion in the first trimester (or before the embryo or fetus is viable outside the womb) should be legal; abortion after that time should be illegal.
Abortion should always be illegal, except in some special circumstances—for example, when the woman's long-term health or life is at stake, when the pregnancy is the result of rape or incest, or when the infant has no long-term viability, or is likely to be born severely disabled.

 Pro-life - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Euthanasia and assisted suicide are also opposed by some pro-life people based on a belief that life is sacred and must be protected even against the wishes of a person who wants to end their own life.
While some pro-lifers are opposed to euthanasia of humans under all circumstances, others do believe that individuals, especially adults, should have the right to choose to end their life if they become terminally ill or severely disabled.
For example, many desire to lower the number of abortions that are performed, generally using methods that focus on the prevention of unwanted pregnancies through improved sex education and increased availability of contraception.

 Hitler's Euthanasia Initiative
Euthanasia typically means "mercy killing" and in the 1990's in the United States and other western nations, it is synonymous with "physician-assisted suicide." The kind of killing carried out through the T-4 program bears little resemblance to contemporary concepts of euthanasia.
Hartheim victims of both ordinary `euthanasia' and 14f13 are variously estimated from 20,000 (by Dr. Georg Renno, Lonauer's successor as director), to 400,000 (by Franz Ziereis, the former commandant of Mauthausen, on his deathbed); 30,000 is believed to be the best estimate.
The euthanasia program proved to be a valuable precursor to the atrocities which were to come in connection with the "Final Solution." SS Major Christian Wirth was transferred from his duties at a euthanasia center to take over the supervision of Chelmo, the first of six extermination camps in Poland to become operational.

 Hitler Pro-Abortion
Although Hitler and his government encourged Aryan women to produce a lot of children, he left the matter of abortion and all its facets in the hands of a decidely pro- abortion medical establishment.
If Hitler was opposed to abortion, why did he permit the establishment of guidelines and procedures for legal abortion in close conformity to those developed by the Berlin Chamber of Physicians, a prominent advocate of permisssive abortion under the guise of health?
If the Nazi government was opposed to abortion, why did it issue an endless series of decrees legalizing the destruction of the unborn throughout the Eastern territories?" At risk of stating the obvious, some (perhaps, many) of the aborted were JEWS.

 Texas Monthly March 1974: Abortion in Texas
For late abortions, the hospital is using a new procedure called urea amniocentesis: amniotic fluid is removed from the uterus and replaced with an equal amount of hypertonic urea solution.
Phelp says that abortion is a quick negative response to a pregnancy and that women should realize that undergoing an abortion is absolute degradation, an effort to conceal the fact that they are able to have children—and thus are women in the most important sense.
The reality of the abortion issue is that the choice of the pregnant woman to have an abortion has an extended impact: on doctors; on hospitals and their staffs; on the father; and, depending on your point of view, on an unborn human being.

 Euthanasia   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-30)
Voluntary euthanasia occurs when the individual chooses to die; nonvoluntary euthanasia occurs when the individual’s death is brought about (either actively or passively) without the individual’s choosing to die; involuntary euthanasia occurs when the individual’s death is brought about against the individual’s wishes.
Involuntary euthanasia covers those cases in which an individual does not want to be euthanized; nonvoluntary euthanasia refers to those in which the individual cannot make an expressed choice at all.
There is a sense in which the motivation and justification of compassionate euthanasia may appear to be utilitarian, or at least consequentialist, in character: the concern is with eliminating pointless suffering.

They believe "the government" is necessary to prevent abortions by threatening violence against those who procure or deliver them.
Many pro-abortionists say that abortion should be "safe, legal, and rare." Why should the exercise of a "constitutional right" be "rare?" This is like a government censor saying freedom of the press should be "rare," or a pro-lynching KKK member saying trials by jury should be "rare." Abortions should be rare because they are murder.

Most of these people having abortions are not upper class women who could've provided for and taken care of the baby if it were born; these women tend to be young, poor women and the so-called father of the baby has abandoned the woman to have and take care of the baby by herself.

 Mormanity: Euthanasia, Partial Birth Abortion, and Retroactive Abortion
With the partial birth abortion nightmare, we are aborting unborn infants that are far enough along in their development that many of them could have lived outside the womb - and in some cases, perhaps could have had very healthy and happy lives.
The bill bans "partial-birth abortion" and it legally defines a partial-birth abortion as any abortion in which the baby is delivered "past the [baby's] navel.
The first full year the law was in effect (1999), Kansas abortionists reported that they performed 182 partial-birth abortions on babies who were defined by the abortionists themselves as "viable," and they also reported that all 182 of these were performed for "mental" (as opposed to "physical") health reasons.

Abortion is only murder if the fetus is a human person.
