Forced Abortions
Chinese parents fight forced abortions
I don’t get it, I never will. This topic and stories such as this will always make me want to run to the restroom to puke right before I bawl my eyes out. I’m not an economist so maybe I don’t understand all of the implications of over population but I have to raise my big red BS flag and wave it wildly! The good Lord knows better than to ask my opinion about such things on judgment day, but you all don’t get the option b/c you’re reading my blog. I seriously hope that as they burn in hell they get plenty of time to think about all of the babies they murdered who are playing with the angels.
I don’t care if you’re pro-life or pro-choice, this isn’t about all of that. This momma didn’t get a choice and I want to cry with her. I remember at the end of my pregnancy I seemed to worry more and more about anything that could go wrong. It’s like, “We’ve made it this far and I’m more in love than ever with this baby, please let everything be all right.” At that point I felt like she already had a personality mostly because of all of her movements and our conversations I had with her in utero. To have someone kill her with a needle through my belly and rip her out of me with forceps I… I can’t finish that thought. Excuse me for a second while I go kiss my baby.
Reading the article they said that the number of forced abortions has gone down since the 80’s and 90’s. Not good enough, not good enough at all. At least this couple is trying to do something about it, but it still won’t replace the lost. My thoughts and prayers are with them, I pray they win this case for them and for the babies.

I can’t imagine wishing another living, sentient creature to “burn in hell” regardless of whether they are perfect, imperfect or totally flawed. Be they man, woman or animal. A man in the street, a murderer, a dog. “As they burn in hell”?
I enjoy your blog and came here via Fertile Mertile originally, but this is one of the many reasons I am an atheist.
(currently blogless, otherwise I would leave my website details).

I completely respect your views and appreciate you feeling free enough to comment on them.
I’m imperfect and you’re right I probably should never wish that on anyone, this is why I’m glad I’m not judge. But as an imperfect human I hurt for that Mom that never got the chance to be, and that anger brings out a lot of other emotions. Right or wrong I should be free to rant, vent, and rage on my blog. I know you’re not telling me otherwise, but I’m just saying.

I feel ya, Tiff. It’s hard to hold others in high regard when such tragic things happen. And for what reason? I’m guilty of thinking they may burn in hell also. But I’m human and not perfect by a long shot.

I agree with you 100%. This story is sad, but at least they are fighting.

I agree you should be allowed to vent on your own blog.
I have done the same when blogging in the past.
And I do agree that the story sounds horrific, on many levels, not least because of the damage and health problems the woman is apparently left with - that is just overwhelming to read of, regardless of the laws in China. Just madness.
