Abortion - Support for Abortion Laws

Personal freedom...I consider to be good, but with freedom comes responsibility.

Pro-Choice Advocate D:

See, and here I thought freedom was a God given RIGHT. Not a privilege to be revoked if you do something someone doesn't like.

Nathan:

What did I say that reflected taking someone's freedom away if they did something someone doesn't like?

Pro-Choice Advocate D:

You've suggested that you should act to pass laws to ban anything you don't personally like.

Nathan:

If I think something is wrong, I should. I should have valid reasons for doing so. If my reasons are not valid, then my opinion should gain no support. If it does gain enough support to make a law, all evidence indicates that it's right. Who's to say it's not? The people who let us think they agreed by not objecting? The people who acted indifferent?

Pro-Choice Advocate D:

Oh please. Just because it has more support doesn't make it right. If I recall Hitler had quite a bit of support in his own country. Osama Bin Laden had the support of most of Afghanistan when he destroyed the WTC, was he right then? Support doesn't make something right. (If that were even true, that would just be one country in the whole world. I'm talking about all parties agreeing on something that's wrong and then stopping it. Osama didn't ask us if we wanted our WTC destroyed. If Osama talked to us and we agreed, "Yeah, our WTC is incredibly evil; please destroy it." then that'd be the same as the situation I'm describing. Regarding abortion, I'm always just saying, "I think abortion is wrong. I think you should agree. Here are the reasons.")
