No, really, Planr, that is loving disgusting thinking and people like you make me ashamed to be a human being. Do you have any idea what it's like to be raped, or loveually abused? Well I do, you cunt, and it's a horrible emotional trauma. I don't have a uterus, though, and so I don't know how it could possibly feel to be made to bear the child of some sick man who forced himself on you without your consent. I'll never be able to understand it, either, since I am incapable of experiencing it - however it doesn't take a genius to figure out that it isn't a pleasant feeling.
Just thinking about it makes my skin crawl, because I know in some part how terrible it would be. And I wouldn't want to wish that on any innocent woman no matter how much I disliked her. Your pitiful argument can be made to work both ways: Why should the mother suffer through nine months of pain and agony on top of a life time of shame just so her bastard child can 'live'? What right do you have, as a man who has never experienced the trial of childbirth or the emotional turmoil coupled with conceiving a child from rape, to force to her to suffer? You have no idea how their life would turn out.
Some women are strong enough to care for that child on their own and that's perfectly fine. Others aren't, though - and who are you to say she'll look on that child with love or affection? The bastard child some stranger gave her? Life isn't your thousand-year-old biblical stories. There is no such thing as unconditional love, and in that case abortion is a better alternative. You talk about shelters and orphanages as if they're some haven for tossed away children but have you ever even been in one? They're underfunded and I'm pretty damn sure children who grow up with no parents start to wonder why mom and dad left them, leading to more emotional trauma. Human life is a burden, don't romanticize it. You're a burden on the state, on your parents, and a burden on rationally-thinking people everywhere. A child is a burden, and if it's not a burden on it's parents it's a burden on the state. That's not a life to live.
Conservatives like you really loving piss me off, not only because of your handicappedly outdated ideals but also because as soon as that baby plops out of his mom's pusillanimous individual you all turn your heads because now it's not an issue anymore, not your problem. You're content to let that child suffer through a life of turmoil and pain just so you can get the point of your thousand year old book of toilet paper across the general public's noses. You're so concerned with life that you ignore whether or not the quality of that life is worth living.
Disgusting. Nothing makes me more upset than hearing people talk like this about raped women.
