You have no idea what you would do because you are not in that position. I had friends that were very very pro life and she got pregnant because they weren't being careful and they ran out and got an abortion because they weren't ready for children. You hate all religions, but Christianity? I do not share your beliefs as well as a lot of oter people don't so why should we be forced to follow your "God's" bible as the word we should live by!?

I have heard of storys where doctors and nurses have actually 'heard' babies scream during an abortion.

Yeah...and lobsters "scream" when you throw them in boiling Water, but I bet you enjoy eatin it! The woman screams as she's being raped...as she's dying from giving birth...as she cries to her therapists because her daddy got her pregnant...as the 13 year old cries because he said he loved her...and then he left...Those are later term abortions...most of the abortions are done during the 1st trimester...a lot right after finding out (6-8 weeks).

None of these sites are pro or anti...they are just doctors and scientists...

. . . and they don't reach a consensus. All have different opinions. Which is why I say, WE DO NOT KNOW!!! It could be at 8 or 9 weeks as the one article I posted believes, it could be at 20 weeks as one of your articles believes, or it could be at some other time. One of the articles you posted even said it's sometime after birth (do you really believe that could be the case)?

Do we really want to say it's ok to kill people because we think they're not going to feel it?

No he said the body feels it around 26 weeks, but the mind doesn't feel it until after birth. You know how bad that thought must make women who have had misscarriages feel...So is the baby in pain when your "God" is aborting it?

A fetus is not yet a person! It is a fetus!

Fetus is the name for a stage of a person's life, just like adolescent and teenager are names for stages. They identify a period of life. It is not a different species. Fetuses do not become human beings any more than toddlers become human beings. They both are human beings.

Did you read the whole thing because this is what it said in the conclusion: "...recent studies have shown that the fetus most certainly does feel pain by the end the second trimester, when late-term and partial birth abortions are performed."

One of the links you posted says:

Dr. Derbyshire argues that the mind only starts to develop after the baby is born, as a consequence of the infants' interaction with the outside world and people around him/her.

Even though the biological development to support pain experience may be ongoing inside the womb, it is only the environment after birth, so needed for pain experience to develop, that needs to happen. Therefore, a fetus, who is still in the womb, cannot experience pain.

Derbyshire said that his study is not looking at whether abortion is right or wrong. He says he is arguing against the use of painkillers during an abortion.

As have I. After a certain stage of development, the only thing keeping a baby from vocalizing is the fact that he or she is surrounded by amniotic Fluid. There have been accounts of air bubbles entering the womb during an abortion, positioning over the baby's mouth, and the baby screaming as the abortion is being performed.

but in it he said that the fetus may physically recognize pain, but that their mind doesn't process it as pain...I'm not saying I believe in everything he said...or that I believe in all the articles...but that most of the articles that are posted by people that are neither pro or anti they say the pain doesn't start until around the 20th month!

If that is the case then you would still hear their muffled screams...just like if you were to scream under water...

Lobsters are not human beings.

Unfortunately, life has the potential to be full of some horrible things. There is evil in the world -- no doubt. There is suffering beyond that which most people can imagine.

Killing people does not solve anything.

How can a body feel pain but a mind can't? That's ludicrous. If your mind can't process pain, you don't feel it.

Miscarriages are not generally violent dismemberments, acid burning, stabbing at the base of the neck, etc. They are generally a natural death. Is there pain involved? I don't know.

Why would a mother who's had a miscarriage feel any worse than a mother who's had an abortion? (this is a rhetorical question -- to make you think.) The fate of the baby is the same. The only difference is whether the mother "wanted" the baby or not. How horrible a distinction is that? If I want you, you are valued and you get to live. If not, you end up in the trash.

Very possibly, if you put an amplification system in there. The uterine wall, fat, and skin of the belly muffle a lot.

I didn't say I agreed with the person who said that...it was just an example! Not all abortions are dismemberments...you are talking about later term abortions and abortions performed in the 2nd tri as I said before most abortions occur in the 1st tri.

All of these situations are very sad -- I am absolutely not denying that. But we shouldn't kill people so other people don't get teased.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
