Pro choice or pro life?

If evidence could be provided of that, I guess so.

Simplest solution and best chance to avoid anyone falling pregnant, though... No sex (Unlikely)! Seems like a doable solution for myself :P Asexual lifestyle to the end, I suppose.

With modern forms of birth control, if you use say both a condom and the woman is on the pill, the likelihood of conception is infinitesimal.

If a man complains about how sex doesn't feel as good with a condom on and he doesn't want to use one, that's fine but he should also take full responsibility for that decision. A human lifeform should not be killed simply because someone doesn't want to use a condom, that is totally disproportionate and unjust

So a woman who has already had a terrible act committed to her should have to suffer a constant reminder of what has been done to her. That to you seems more fair than removing a cluster of cells that is months away from being anything that could even vaguely be described as a human being?

The human lifeform in the woman's belly also has a life. Why doesn't its life come into it?

What of the human lifeform in the woman's belly? It has a body as well. It didn't choose to be conceived.

I'm not saying abortion should be outlawed, but it seems facile to assert that there are no moral dilemmas here, that there are no moral implications to ending the life of a proto-human lifeform

How much it resembles a human isnt my main concern. But yes, i do believe it is better, yes its a shame that the victim has to suffer more, and yes it might seem unfair. But we can spend eternity talking about how unfair the situation is, but we dont get to just put our fingers in our ears and pretend nothing happened. Sometimes you have to put others before yourself.

I'm an atheist but I'd say life begins at conception, I don't think that's really debatable in that it is a lifeform. The feotus is alive.

Now the fact it is alive isn't a conclusive argument that it therefore has the right to life and not to be terminated, but I don't think we progress the argument by pretending that it isn't alive. The real question is not whether it's alive, but at what point a human lifeform should accrue legal rights and should be deserving of our protection as a (potential) fellow member of our human society

Such stupid names, as though those who are 'pro-choice' are 'anti-life'. It's things like this that got Hitler into power.

True. An interesting comment I've seen from someone else on the Internet one time on this topic, goes along the line of (and I paraphrase from my memory):

"Anti-abortionists are not really pro-life, they are merely just pro-birth. They don't really tend to care what happens to the unwanted child after birth, such as if they live a bad life being severely disabled, being stuck in the care system with no one wanting to adopt or foster them, living in dire poverty, or even just being emotionally damaged by being with biological parents who never really wanted them or cared properly for them. All scenarios that would be avoided with abortion."

For the record, I'm personally pro-choice.

But until it his the point where the foetus can be viewed as a functional human being then what you're doing isn't putting the child before the woman, you're putting a cluster of cells that do not meet any definition of "a person" and that have no awareness of their own existence.
