Fetal Rights Debate - Almost As Bad As Terrorism?

I knew that the pro-aborts wouldn't welcome a debate they could never win. But who could have thought they are that afraid of it?
PETERBOROUGH, ON, June 18, 2008 (LifeSiteNews.com) - The wife of Liberal Party leader Stephane Dion has said that the next most serious domestic terrorist threat in Canada could be the return of the abortion debate, reports the Peterborough Examiner. She indicated that the factor that has introduced this threat is Bill C-484, the Unborn Victims of Crime Act, brought forward by Conservative MP Ken Epp.

Janine Krieber, an expert in international relations, military strategy and terrorism, was speaking to a small audience at Fleming College in Peterborough, Ontario, yesterday. In her speech she identified any area in society that creates "social division" as a "potential threat either high or low".

"The problem I see, for the moment, coming next is that we bring back abortion discussions into society," said Krieber. "We had problems before and if we bring that back too severely it will bring conflict."
Hmm... I wonder how many people ever lost their lives due to an open debate? Let's compare it to the number of people who lost their lives in terrorist attacks... I also wonder how many people ever ended up being ripped apart limb by limb in the days when abortion debate was still going on? Now, how many unborn babies are being ripped apart limb by limb every single day in Canada's hospitals and abortion clinics?

Sure, some will be quick to claim that abortion is their "right", which is non-negotiable and non-debatable. But who said that abortion is actually a right? Even the Charter says nothing about abortion, let alone Canada's original Bill Of Rights. And if we're talking about basic human rights - what about one's right to life? How come it's being denied to the babies that are just months (weeks, days) away from their first breath? What happened to
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, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.
I guess, in the eyes of our "progressive" politicians, that is an American concept, which has no value in Canada. Just as they give no value to our freedom of speech.

Sorry Leo
I have been reading you for a few days now and while we sit on opposite sides of the religious divide i really must move on. The problem is not that i do not agree with you, i actually enjoy hearing your mind but its the lack of thought that you put into your posts. You could try to see all sides to an issue and why others believe in what they do the way you want others to see your way. You are a bit of the reason the conservative party was given a minority when the liberal did everything wrong. You come across as a bit close minded even though you seem to have a good grasp on current affairs. expand your mind a bit

What exactly should I expand my mind to? You suggest me to try and see all the sides to an issue - that's exactly what I tried to do and what I wrote in my posting is exactly the conclusion I reached.

After all, what other conclusion can I reach if all their arguments are either scientifically invalid (a fetus is not a "blob of tissue" and it's not a part of woman's body) or based on the dogmas (such as "abortion is a human right") which simply make no sense to anyone outside of their camp?

If the other side starts providing real arguments - I'll be happy to address those. But so far, they're just trying to ban the debate altogether, often - using misinformation and fear mongering. In my opinion - that's ridiculous.
