>>>>>>This issue always gets heated, doesn't it? You should probably take back the part about hoping his daughter is raped.

>>>>>Well, unless John is willing to really think through this issue, and remove his fanatic glasses, I stand by my words. I also happen to know the parents of the girl I mentioned, and they virtually died when their daughter committed suicide. I have never seen anyone "going down" as fast as they did. They lost all their friends, and finally moved to another part of the country.

>>>>It has NOTHING to do with fanatacism. Its a thought out position that I've come to terms with over the last 60 years. I wouldn't wish rape on anyone, but if it does happen, have the baby and placie it for adoption with someone who wants it. Abortion is often the easy way out of many situations; self-made and other.

>>>I find your POV extremely narrow minded. In a way it's also very, very, egoistic. You see yourself as a good person on the cost of other people's life. Face the reality, open your eyes. The world is not black and white, it has colors as well. In the real case I mentioned, do you really think it was better to have two dead people and two "deadish" people (her parents), than to remove something which could have become a baby? And if the girl really did give birth to this child, do you think it would be fair that she should continue to suffer just so that your egoistic conscience should be good? And what about this baby, do you think would be fair to grow up without knowing who his/her parents were? Or to know that her father was a rapist?

>>>Don't you have ANY respect for other people's feelings? Do YOU have the right to decide over other people's life? Shame on you, John. Shame on you, I fill pity for you.you

>>OK. So we kill one. That's the solution, right Tore?

>The solution is to let the girl who is raped, make the decision herself. Without any pressure from anyone else. It's her life, she should have the freedom to choose herself. Just like you should have the freedom to do with your own life whatever you want. I am no judge, you are no judge. I tell you that whatever this girl does, it will be wrong for her, terribly wrong. There is no right or wrong solution in such cases. She will have to live with her decision the rest of her life, just like she must live with the bad memories of the rape. Let's not add to her burden. I don't know how I can say it better.

The baby may die by her decision. The baby will live with the decision the rest of his/her life, which may be extremely short.

The rapist made the decision to rape.

The girl can make the decision to kill.

The baby isn't allowed a decision.

It's not a pretty situation.

At least the rapist won't have to worry about losing his life with democrats around. He'll get counseling and be allowed back into society.
