No nothing to do with money, pregnant women should be encouraged to deliver their precious baby healthily. Many times it is the environment in which the woman lives which is at fault, not the fact that she is pregnant. Pregnancy is a wonderful natural event, and it should always be that way for all women. WRT a decomposing body, not all of the 3500 (assuming this figure is correct?) women going abroad annually for abortions have decomposing bodies.

ABC101 wrote: » The X case was not a case of a rape in the normally understood event, although many pro choice / pro abortionist campaigners will never admit this fact. The X case was a underage girl who was dating a man in his 20's or 30's with the full knowledge of her parents. In the course of the relationship, the underage girl was raped on a technicality, I.e. Because she was under the age for consent it was considered rape. It was not because she was coming home from school and in some dark alley way she was beaten half senseless and violently abused by some twisted stranger. The entire fiasco could have been avoided if the parents had done their job as parents, told the man to sod off and that he has no business around their daughter. I know I would have. These days somebody behaving that way would be considered a pedophile. Nobody said life would be fair. Given the fact you have lots on money you can always give your money to women who are seeking abortions. Or spend your money on getting yourself pregnant and enjoy playing God by travelling abroad for late term abortions.

A 14-year-old girl is raped by a man known to her and her family. She becomes pregnant and it is later discovered that the teenager was being sexually abused by the same man for the previous two years. Court judgements subsequently call him an “evil and depraved” man

This is a typical pro-lifer response that comes up time and again with respect to abortion in the case of rape. Cos as long as a woman isn't attacked down a lane she must have brought it on herself? :rolleyes:
