I was raped when I was 17. I ended up pregnant. I carried the child, the child is innocent. I was not in a state to financially or mentally raise a child so I chose adoption. God is good. She is now grown teaching German at a university and I will be attending her wedding next month! I got married got pregnant and was diagnosed with cancer told I needed to abort and I needed treatment right away. I ended up having to have radiation, my spleen removed and other biopsies etc. They continued to tell me to abort he would be stunted in growth and with mental disabilities if he made it to full term. I refused, put the baby in God's hands. I delivered a 10lb baby. He was talking is simple sentences by 1 yr. High IQ, smart boy all his life! And definitely not stunted in growth and I have 2 beautiful grandbabies!

I was raped my senior year of high school. I was a virgin. That rape led to a pregnancy. At no point was abortion a option. It never crossed my mind. I was so scared though. College was no longer a option for me, I had no help from my parents, my life was not easy . Still I love my beautiful smart funny loving amazing daughter more than life itself. She’s one of the absolute nicest people I’ve ever known. I hate the fact that 34 years ago I was raped but for me, my daughter healed me. It changed a awful scary experience and brought love joy and a lifetime of happiness.

I'm a 61 yr old Christian woman who had an abortion over 34 years ago during a abusive relationship . I bought into the lie that it wasn't a viable human being at just a few weeks old and justified it as nt wanting this man's child or him in my life any longer . It completely changed me . I will say there is forgiveness even for murder though I didn't deserve it as we all know . It took me over 20 years to even speak it out load without crying knowing I had Christs forgiveness yet couldn't forgive myself . It finally came after decades of prayer and I'm no longer filled with guilt towards myself by the mercy and grace of Jesus . I just wanted to share this . God has blessed me with 2 children and 5 grandchildren. 1 of my children were going to seek the route I took and told them my testimony and the outcome of that was my first grandchild . Oh the precious never ending Love of Jesus .

I personally am that 1% my birth mother was 15 years old when she gave birth to me from what I understand it was a gangrape in New Bedford Massachusetts in the late 60s, I never met my birth mother but I love her dearly, against all of the odds from her own mother and other people in society forcing her to get an abortion she ran away from home at 15, she was even placed in a special home for young pregnant mothers and they tried to force an abortion she ran away from them also. She gave birth to me and I was adopted. Her strength and courage saved my life and when I told pro-abortionist this story I asked them bluntly should have my mother aborted me because I was a product of a rape they say yes to my face every single time. To this day I never met her and I love her with all my heart thank you Mom Wherever You Are.

And I can say the same thing back to you if your mother aborted you you wouldn't have cared either just like you said to me. So let's go with your logic let's abort everyone in the whole world because if they were aborted they wouldn't have cared.

@ymarrero23 She was an alcoholic, a drug addict, and got money "entertaining" men, so she wasn't a very stable person. I sometimes wonder if she had undiagnosed bipolar or some other kind of personality disorder. She did give me up when I was 11, but she did a lot of damage in those 11 years. I know she didn't set out to be a violently abusive "mother", but the alcohol and drugs just destroyed her. I wish she had given me up when I was a baby, but the welfare, food stamps, and AFDC was how she paid for her booze and drugs most of the time, so she didn't want to give that up.

But what you must do despite the facts that you were diagnosed with such, is you must take in God’s Truth, and so by Faith you were healed-reject that sickness and Proclaim the healing that Jesus bought and paid for you!😇

She has already went through a traumatic experience, then she feels she needs to kill off something else from within her? That baby is half of her. Why would you traumatize her twice as much, knowing watching that baby grow up is one of the only things that may heal her psychological wounds into scars. If she wants to part with the baby at 39 weeks and give it up to someone else, she should be allowed to do so, but murder is never the answer. Our country should offer better counseling for situations like these, as well as an easier adoption process. They make it difficult on everyone involved, for a reason. An aborted baby is free research material, so very few will fight for what is right for the baby and the mother in the long run.

I was for abortion in my 20s. Then, I had to console my best guy friend when his girlfriend got an abortion when he wanted the baby. He had a business worth a million dollars and was completely ready and financially able. She didn't want to have kids. I'll never forget his words, "She actually asked me for the money. And when I said no, she still left to go borrow the money from her parents. She didn't love me. She didn't love me enough to have my child." He was devastated. It took him another decade to really trust a woman again and settle down. He now has a baby girl that he loves to pieces. In the situation of rate, the reason why abortion has been allowed was so that women would have some redemption and justice, I believe and not go after men who violate their bodies or commit a crime. I ended up telling a liberal that maybe y'all should focus less on abortion rights with all your 11 year old incest or rape cases and go hard on making sure men have consequences. Harsher sentences. Hell Epstein and Maxwell's black book list disclosed to the public. We protect sexual predators too much in this country.

I’m confused - are you suggesting that because Jesus didn’t explicitly teach against abortion he therefore supported or allowed it?
@AidanRKelly2 жыл бұрын
@@proscience7462 Perhaps Jesus taught and lived in such a way that He didn't have to talk about every possible evil because the principles taught and lived address such evils implicitly. How are teachings such as loving God and one's neighbor, being merciful, and being poor in spirit only applicable to men in the Bronze Age? It seems like these and other such teachings can be applied in any age of human history, and can be used to combat particular evils.
@AidanRKelly2 жыл бұрын
@@proscience7462 Yeah I can see why could maybe be frustrating or concerning. And I can't say for certain what He would say (my immediate intuition is that they're wrong) but I can let His life and teachings, as well as prayer and logical discernment inform my decision (also I'm sure there are many books and discussions from Christian thinkers as to why those things are wrong). But it doesn't seem exactly fair to me to try to discount the Bible on grounds that it doesn't explicitly address every particular evil in every age. Also, I think the foundational principles are worth spending a lot of time and thought with, considering the profound impact they've had on the lives of individuals for over two millennia now. I'm not sure you're doing this, but there's a danger I think of throwing the baby out with the bathwater -- "because the Bible doesn't explicitly address these particular issues then that which Christ DID teach and live is not worth considering" sorta thinking.

This hits home. Even though I was a product of rape my mother chose to keep me. My grandmother knew what was happening and even offered her an abortion. At 23 I'm glad she didn't, my childhood was rough and I used to wish she aborted me (she even compared me to him once and that really messed me up) but now I'm thankful that I got the chance to live, make my own choices.

The baby can’t give consent to be killed and it certainly has not committed any crimes yet so it should deserve to live.

This makes me think about this really sad video where the dad is outside screaming and begging his GF not to abort his baby. He's just bawling his eyes out on the sidewalk and it's so awful. I was 17 when I had my daughter and everyone told me to have an abortion. I felt her move really early and I knew I couldn't kill her ever. For many years she was such a blessing from God to keep me motivated and give me hope. I wish I could say she's happy and doing great... But she's 17 now and Satan is fighting hard with her through addiction. She refuses to accept Jesus. I keep praying she'll find Jesus everyday.

Mark I was raped at 15. Forced to abort. It did nothing but add torment to already horrid torment to my life. God did healed me shattered soul over 15 years. But getting abortion after rape only quadruples the horror of the situation for the victim. Give birth with lots and lots of prayer support and put up for adoption if victim can't raise child. I know of a woman who was raped violently. She decided to have the child. The child was a huge blessing in her life. She married a widower w a small child. They all became a loving family. God did incredible thing as she honored Him.

@Trinity M Joe Biden gave a eulogy for a kkk recruiter before taking office and called him a friend and a mentor. The democrat party used the kkk to lynch black people and republicans. They were actually used as a terror tool to threaten people into voting democrat. The racism from the democrat party continues strong today, and they use propaganda to hide who they are and create false narratives which you are under the spell of. Six corporations control 90-95% of consumed news media. My democrat friends have acted more racist than anyone I have ever met, and it is because they have been tricked into thinking a certain way by the leftist news and democrat party. History truly does repeat itself, but there are new twists on what it entails. Most people who call Trump a racist appear to be projecting their own internalized racism on Trump as a scapegoat to deflect from their own minds and hearts.

It’s amazing how many of these individuals end up being born again, Holy Spirit filled believers who passionately advocate for voiceless babies. A lot of these people will clarify to people that if they could have chosen, they would have chosen not to be aborted. They also clarify that they were and are a separate body and person from their birth mother. The testimonies of these kinds of people make it extremely difficult to stay inside of the deception of abortion. This was an awesome video!! Brought tears to my eyes.
