*If it's not really a baby, you're not really pregnant!*

...Speaking out for those who cannot speak for themselves...
Who has the right to play God??? If they were created, obviously God had a plan for them. And you did get to make a choice, you chose to have sex. Deal with the consequences!
True bad things happen, such as rape...but TWO WRONGS DON'T MAKE A RIGHT! If you can't keep the baby then give it up for adoption. That way a couple that wants to have children can have the blessing of a child for themselves. Make a loving choice for your child, its not his or her fault that you were a victim of that crime... don't make your child a victim of murder.
The Facts
Don't care about my opinion??? At least
know the facts
It is a biological fact that a
genetically unique human life begins at conception. By the time that
most abortions are performed, the developing baby has grown from a single cell
to a tiny baby. Its important to know that its someone that is
being aborted.
The heart begins to beat at around
24 days from conception
Brainwaves can be recorded at 43
days.
Movement begins at 45 days, and by
eight weeks, every organ is present and functioning.
Total number of abortions in the
U.S. from 1973 to 2002 are estimated at 44,1010,378
In the year 2000, more children
died from abortion than Americans died in the Revolutionary War, Civil War,
World Wars I and II, the Korean, Vietnam, and Gulf Wars combined.
Some women have often cited
"social reasons", NOT mother's health, rape or incest as their reason
for having an abortion in 93% of all abortions.
Abortion can cause
severe hemorrhaging, and the risk for infection is very high even in clean
abortion clinics. Many women often must have either a partial or complete
hysterectomy because of an abortion. It can cause infertility or in
several cases, even death. Is is really worth that risk?
Know the facts about what
procedures actually occur... (click to see a diagram of how these abortions
are performed.)

What does God say
about abortion???
We are alive from conception, not just simply a
"fetus", but a human life unique and special in every way.
Before I
formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart.
~Jeremiah 1:5
God already has
a life planned for this baby!
Your eyes saw my unformed body. All the days ordained for me were written in
your book before one of them came to be. ~Psalm
139:16
Murder is defined as "The killing of one human being by another; to kill
brutally or inhumanely; to put an end to or destroy... Abortion seems to fit
this description correctly
Whoever sheds the blood of man, by man shall his blood be shed; for in the
image of God has God made man~ Genesis 9:6
The living but unborn are persons in the sight of God from the time of conception. Since abortion takes a human life, it is not a moral option except to prevent the death of another person, the mother.
And as a final note. Think about what would happen if your mother had an abortion? Or what about your best friends mother? We're not God. We don't have the right to choose who gets to live and who gets to die. And weather you refuse to believe it or not, a "fetus" is a human being. An unborn child. Just because the child is unborn does not mean its not a live human. It has a beating heart and brain waves. Having an abortion is as absurd as saying that I could kill a person legally if they were in my house but if I took them outside I would be charged with murder and given the death penalty. It doesn't make sense. Think about it.
Thanks for
listening to what I had to say! I want you to know that this page does not
intend to personally offend anyone. **In addition to believing that
abortion is wrong, I also believe that it is a sin which is equal to all other
sins in God's eyes and is certainly not unforgivable. I will discuss this topic with you if you
wish to make your point. If you agree with me then you can put
