The Next Logical Step for Abortionists


A recent CBS.com news article, 'Roe v. Wade For Men' Suit Filed, shows the next logical step for supporters of abortion to take in their efforts to get their social agenda established. To quote the story:

The gist of the argument: If a pregnant woman can choose among abortion, adoption or raising a child, a man involved in an unintended pregnancy should have the choice of declining the financial responsibilities of fatherhood. The activists involved hope to spark discussion even if they lose.

The issue here is not that men can force an abortion to take place even if the mother is opposed to such a procedure; rather it allows men a get out of jail free card for their sexual promiscuity. So might be harm in allowing this to progress? Well the obvious one is an increase in the rate of abortion for "unwanted" pregnancies (PJ doesn't believe there is a such thing as an "unwanted" pregnancy since the child has no say in the matter.) Unwed mothers who have no force of law to Image Hosted by ImageShack.usrequire reluctant fathers to pony up for their deeds and would otherwise be faced with dire economic/social circumstances seem to have a greater door of "opportunity" for an abortion. Also this would simply add to the philandering of a greater number of sexual promiscuous men, who for other reason than fear of disease, would spread their seed far and wide. Finally, this usher in the day when a man can force a woman he has impregnated to have an abortion.

The logic of movement aside, this is a poor choice if a court hears. Dereliction of fatherly duties are spinning our country out of control. We men to be men and lead as they should.
