Abortion

I was reading an artical from msnbc.com(June 2010) and thought this was kind of interesting and disturbing at the same time. Listen to this:

In London, British health experts say the human fetus cannot feel pain before the age of 24 weeks, so there is no reason to change the country's abortion laws. The Government-Commissioned study is a setback for anitabortion activits, who want the country's current 24-week time limit for terminations reduced. The study says that nerve connections in the brain are not sufficiently formed to allow pain perception before 24-weeks. The study by the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, published Friday, was recommended by lawmakers who are considering lowering the abortion limit. The doctors say there is increasing evidence that even after 24 weeks the fetus is in a state of "continous sleep-like unconsciousness or sedation."

This caught my eye because I do not believe in abortion unless the circumstance is very sufficient. There are many people in the world who would love to have a baby that cannot infact have one so they have to adopt. If every female in the world that didnt want their baby were able to get abortions just because someone said the baby isnt able to fee any pain, there wouldnt be a thriving population like there is today. A baby that is breathing, moving and kicking inside of your belly is a human of flesh and blood. Only under certain cercumstances do I believe an abortion should take place. That is: If you are raped by incest, and well thats all I can think of. Its not the babies fault that it is born into this world to someone that doesnt want him/her, so give it up for adoption. Having an abortion is killing a human, its not right and this law is stupid because at 24 weeks(6months) your baby is fully developed, moving and kicking, and breathing. I do not see how someone could do that!
