No, it is not ignorant. Unless someone can prove to me otherwise, most abortions are due to neglectful women who have unprotected sex.
I think your sex life is down the hole, so you wish to put restrictions on other's sex lives in order to feel like you have company, so to speak.
Don't talk through your ass. It is bad manners. (No offense of anything, it just needed to be said).
So you want to sentence the child to a life-time hell of children's homes and foster parents? The merciful thing to do with an unwanted child who is the product of rape is to abort it, at least while it's still in the early stages of development, when it has no thought, no feelings, no dreams, or identity of its own. It is indeed extremely ignorant to not take a closer look at what that child would be going through if they were put up for adoption. An unwanted child's life isn't a bittersweet Disney fairytale. It's cold, gritty, and highly traumatic.
Yet strangely, I have multiple friends who are trying to adopt for years. For some reason it isn't an easy thing to do. One couple I know say it is their dream to adopt 14 kids, and I have actually known other couples who have done things similar to this. Seems to me there is an incredible amount of families out there who really want to adopt kids and give them a good life, but have to wait years and years for one, yet here we are talking about mercy killings of inocent lives so they don't have to go through life unwanted. Maybe it is just me, but something feels WAY out of wack here.
