Topic: ramblings
Well I happened to join this yahoo group called "IdLikeToHaveAnArgumentPlease" a few months ago. For those who don't know, yahoo groups are created and used to share information, tips, support, etc (in this case it is to share arguments lol)
Well for the first few months the group was really mild...then someone posted:
"Norma McCorvey, aka Jane Roe, will ask the Supreme Court tomorrow to
vacate Roe v. Wade.
Rhonda"
That sparked quite a debate as we all put in our two cents about the abortion debate (quite possibly the most heated of them all). I have never known anyone to think that denying a woman their "right" to have an abortion equated to forced slavery. Nor had I ever heard of anyone developing an artifical womb in order to, I suppose, raise and nurture the pre-born rather than "forcing" the mother to do it. I understand women not wanting to go through the pain/work of being pregnant and giving birth, but I also know many women who see pregnancy as a blessing and willingly put themselves through whatever they need to in order to say "yeah, I helped create that." Anyway, they had totally opposite views/perspectives on love, sex, responsibilities, rights, and laws than I do. Which makes for plenty good debating huh? :)
I debated whether I would post the emails and arguments on here, but I think I'll hold off for now. Besides, I will be spending plenty of time responding to them as it is :)
