Re: The Shining City Upon a Hill

Yes, facts are in order.

Fact: Canada is one of very few countries in the world where abortion is legal up until birth.

Abortion in Canada is legal throughout pregnancy, and is publicly funded as a medical procedure under the combined effects of the federal Canada Health Act and provincial health-care systems. However, access to services and resources varies by region.

More facts. From Canada this time

"Abortion clinics that are not affiliated with a hospital do not perform abortions past 21 weeks (often stated as 23 weeks from last menstrual period, “LMP”). About one-third of reporting hospitals don’t report details on gestational ages, presumably all in Quebec, but we can assume that the proportion of 21+ week abortions are similar for that one-third. Therefore, taking into account the total estimated numbers of abortions for 2020: 74,605*– the estimated percentage of abortions at 21+ weeks including Quebec is 1.29 percent"

Yup. It's called freedom. You should try it some time.

Only 1.29% after 21 weeks. It must be crushing when facts get in the way of hysteria.

Only in Canada is aborting a baby at 9-months considered freedom.

1 is too many.

Exactly whose freedom? Definitely not that of the unborn child. In fact it violates that child's God given right to life.

I understand. I guess Canada wants to make late term abortions legal just in case a woman wants to have one.

I wasn't talking to Billy, I was addressing you.And I was paraphrasing the Declaration of Independence. "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by
their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life"

Or they are occurring and the Canadian Government is just not telling the truth. Also the Canadian media is afraid to mention them as they do not want to go to prison.

Re: The Shining City Upon a Hill

... an unborn child is not a person. It is a fetus and it is not a citizen. Fetus do not have rights.

Only a very small % of abortions occur at late term, usually because the fetus is certain to have serious health defects or the mother's life is at risk.

Usually most of the people who want to take away the rights of the mother are too old to have children and have no exposure to the heavy responsibilities of raising raising children.

Hmmmm. I guess you really don't understand. It's kinda sad when people allow hysteria to supersede their intelligence.

Because we don't hate our women.

... six countries in the world allow late term abortions. 37 more allow mid-term abortions.

God to athesists is a ficticional character and does not have any ability to grant any rights to anybody, either living persons or fetuses.
