Saying abortion is okay to be legalised if other people choose that path is contradictory to the Church teaching on abortion. Holding that opinion is a rejection of the Church teaching. Yes you have the freewill to hold an opinion but if that opinion contradicts Church teaching it is a sin of grave matter.No i personally believe it shouldn’t be allowed but I believe people have their own free choice.
If it were put to a vote, I find it amazing that you would NOT vote to protect the innocent life of a child. I simply do not know how one can justify this.Well I believe abortion and gay marriage is wrong now but I am not going to vote for a yes or no option, I am just going to skip it. I don’t want my vote to count in these type of moral issues, sorry for the mix up guys, blessings.
I can’t speak for the OP, but as a former “pro-choicer” I can say what it was in my case: misplaced compassion for the mother, especially in the situation of “hard cases,” and a fundamental misunderstanding of biology and how pregnancy works.If it were put to a vote, I find it amazing that you would NOT vote to protect the innocent life of a child.

I think that you are right about the OP… It’s pretty clear that he is trying to take a compassionate stance. It is just misplaced.I can’t speak for the OP, but as a former “pro-choicer” I can say what it was in my case: misplaced compassion for the mother, especially in the situation of “hard cases,” and a fundamental misunderstanding of biology and how pregnancy works.
Looking back I feel ridiculous about it, but the OP’s not alone. Our society is seriously warped on these issues and otherwise intelligent, compassionate people can fall into traps of bad thinking to justify sin, thinking they are doing the “right thing.”
The problem is that you are contradicting yourself with thus logic, because if you think that someone should have the free choice to do something it means that in your own mind you don’tthink that action is really that bad. Yes maybe you wouldn’t do it but if you think other should have the freedom to it then is because you think is not harmful so yes you are condoning the action. Would you say that you wouldn’t burglarize a home but you think that burglars have the right to burglarized when they want? Would you say that you wouldn’t murder your neighbor but if someone wants to murder your neighbor that person should have the right to murder? Your answer would probably be no and the reason is because you see murder and burglary as something so grave no one should do it. Obviously you don’t see abortion under the same lens. You don’t think is something that is really hitting anyone so then people should have the right to do it…and by seeing like that yes, you are condoning the action.No i personally believe it shouldn’t be allowed but I believe people have their own free choice.
