CHICAGO — They say they were using birth control, but it failed.

One woman would have had the baby but the man she was in a relationship with didn’t want her to. Another was having an affair with a married man and viewed a pregnancy as unthinkable. A third woman’s health would be at risk if she continued her pregnancy.

One should never have sexual intercourse unless one is prepared to be responsible for the consequences. That goes for men as well as women. It’s the main reason we don’t want minors having sex.

We've fallen so deep into the cesspool that it is uncool to expect someone to suffer the consequences of their actions - kill the defenseless and save yourself an "inconvenience"...

The young woman said she would have considered continuing the pregnancy and putting the baby up for adoption, but that the man she was in a relationship with pressured her into going through with an abortion.

Well, that certainly justifies murdering an innocent. /sarc

The article says she lost her job, but found another one. Why didn't it also say whether her heroic boyfriend stuck around?

She went to her gynecologist to confirm the pregnancy and talk about options.

"The moment I said that I was thinking about not keeping it, she stood up out of her chair and said, ’This is a Catholic hospital. I could get in so much trouble for talking to you.’"

Its good to see there are still some limits.

They say there are a million abortions a year in this country. They dig up three cases to represent one million. And with the press these days, how can we be sure they aren’t just making up these cases?
This is just more propaganda from THE DEMOCRAT’S WAR ON BABIES.

“Before the abortion, a clinic worker took an ultrasound and asked if she wanted to see the image. “I did want to see it,” she said. “Just because I didn’t get to keep this one doesn’t make it any less my child.”

“A pregnancy under any other circumstances would have been welcomed and rejoiced in my life,” she said.”

Any other reasons for the state of our nation?

“Her religion helps her cope and she is philosophical. She believes she will be reunited with her lost babies in heaven.”

Is that like martyring someone else so they can go to heaven with 72 virgins?

Situation 1. This is why some so called men are just as much to blame for abortion. That blood is on his hands just as much as it is the quack doctor and the mother. This baby could have been saved.

Situation 2. I hope she got a couple of other options from other doctors.

Situation 3. I don't sleep with married women. Besides the fact that breaking up families is wrong to begin with, this is another foreseeable consequence. Murder to avoid embarrassment. A lot of people will do literally anything to cover up secret scandals, and that includes murder.

Let’s face it. Many have abortions because they would rather be out partying than home with their baby.

She believes she will be reunited with her lost babies in heaven.

No she won't, unless she repents of her sins and accepts Jesus as her Lord and Savior. Her babies are in heaven but it's up to her whether she reunites with them or not.

Do they talk about why the women couldn’t give the baby up for adoption?

Some of the strongest pro-lifers I’ve known are women who had an abortion and realized the error of their ways. May G-d lead these poor women to repentance.

I’m sure God is already punishing these women, and there is no way they do not know what they’ve done wrong.

I feel bad for them, it sounds like they threw away their God-given souls for convenience...

“They say they were using birth control, but it failed. “

The first lie they tell you is the idea of “safe sex”. There is no such thing, they maybe “safer”, but the idea that you can have promiscuous sex and never get pregnant is pure fantasy.
