What a load. One can support Planned Parenthood and/or legalized abortions with out advocating pregnant women actually get one. Abortion is but one of the many services Planned Parenthood offers, including counseling on family planning and birth control. Women are counseled on the alternatives to make sure they make an informed decision, as they would for any life changing medical procedure.And as I’ve stated in the past, closing down Planned Parenthood and making abortion illegal won’t stop women from actually seeking out abortion services. It just means that it becomes more dangerous to the woman seeking it.
It ain’t a child, it’s an embryo. You may think that an egg is identical to a chicken, but I sure wouldn’t ask you to make chicken paprikash. Planned Parenthood, through its contraceptive and women’s health services, prevents more abortions than any of the hundreds of anti-woman and unconstitutional laws passed in red states since the great shift right-ward in 2010. And the American Health Care Act, once it’s fully implemented with contraceptives included, will prevent far more abortions, based on the St Louis study. (Not to mention the savings of lives of actual, born children, for whose lives the Republicans never have any room in their budgets).
You brought up science, so please provide a consistent, logical, scientific definition of when a human being begins to exist. Such a definition would not be subject to exceptions purely to benefit a particular belief. It should be applicable in all situations, such as premature birth..I’ll provide my definition:1) Full Human DNA (identity)2) Metabolism (living status)3) Growth (developmental path).I’m interested in hearing your scientific definition.
You can explain about all the good work Planned Parenthood does. You can explain how we need sensible gun laws and that NO ONE is trying to take your gun, if you have it legally. There’s just so many mental midgets out there you will always get some of the stupid, anti PP comments as shown here.
Mr. King, I must take offense and pity you that your refer to The Lord as “Magic Big Guy in the Sky.” It is obvious by your comment that you are athesit or agnostic, who else would refer to a person made in the image and likeness of the creator as a clump of cells. Wonder if you are thankful that your parents at least considered you worth more than a bunch of matter.
Jase99 said….to onguard….blah, blah, blah…..liberal rhetoric that evades the point.thank you Bruce for posting info for Jase…-Varvel is 100% accurate in pointing out Obama’s total Hyprocrisy……he said those exact quotes…..for gun control “to save one child”…we must control gun ownership…but He made a 12 minute in person speech to PP and never once said “abortion” (PP is #1 provider and knew but ignored Gosnell’s atrocity clinic and has PP clinics under suspicion of the same type of ABUSING WOMEN AND BABIES.)-then oh, so Christian Obama “God Bless You”-ed the PP profiteers since the 1970s from the Abortion genocide of Americans in the womb, being fashioned by God as next generation, but murdered before (and sometimes after) birth.-Every Bible believer knows God does not bless mass murder.The ultimate vulnerable human is the baby in its prebirth phase, and God makes it clear in scripture that He will hold murderers responsible, at the final Judgment, if they have not repented and asked God’s forgiveness and stopped doing legalized murder by abortions.
50% of fertilized eggs never attach to the uterus, and are naturally “aborted” by that great abortionist in the clouds, called “God”, by some.
100% of kids shot and killed in school shootings are actual human beings, murdered, just like those in “drive by” gang shootings, domestic violence, and the occasional accidental shooting while cleaning a gun, then of course there are the teenagers, and returning combat veterans committing suicide.
Yep, Planned Parenthood, that mostly provides family planning, and medical care to women, that they can’t otherwise afford, is the real “bad guys”, not the ones selling guns without background checks, or to known felons through third parties, and of course making sure everyone shooting squirrels has a 100 round magazine of 7.62 ammo!!
http://jewishworldreview.com/cols/thomas043013.php3#.UX_iIxQo4dUExcellent article, printed 2 pages. Light shining on the Left’s DARK “murder incorporated” funded by taxpayers, including Bible-believing taxpayers, knowing God in the 66 books of the Jewish scriptures, authored by Jews given God’s Words, that His Law condemns murder of all and any humans.Killing in self-defense and defense wars is not condemned by God’s Law. But women are not “defending” themselves from the product of their chosen activities. Numbers of women endangered by a pregnancy are in the lowest %. Most aborted babies are the victims of PC “convenience”….-Liberal Kirsten Powers has another excellent column in USA Today, 4/29/13 “Gosnell’s abortion atrocities no ‘aberration’…”printed 2 pages. Another article reports that Pro-Choice (for abortions) fights against states authorizing Abortion facilities being regularly Inspected and prosecuted for violations.
No, a cancer tumor has damaged DNA, not full human DNA. Second, cancer is a clump of cells that expands into a clump of cells. It has no developmental path that would result in anything more than a clump of cells. Therefore, cancer tumors are not human beings..Before someone tries to bring up donated organs or blood, again, these do not have a developmental path that would result in a full grown adult. Therefore, they are not human beings on their own either.
I’m asking for a scientific definition of when human life begins, a specific event in the life of a human being. I’m not asking for a dissertation on the origins of the human species.

Are you even aware of what Planned Parenthood does? Or do you get your news from Fox?
