So what right do you have to judge or control the choices that women with unwanted pregnancies face?
At present, such women have the right to travel to anywhere outside Ireland to procure a termination. Why shouldn't they be entitled to obtain this medical procedure in the Republic? Perhaps then we would see the abortion rate drop to a much lower level.
Women cannot just be seen as unwilling vessels.
You do know how women get pregnant ?
There is plenty of options for contraception in this country.
No babys are unwanted and thats a fact.
Its irrelevant whether or not I personally agree with abortion, but the anti abortion lobby force the consequences of their moral choices on others - which I do not agree with.

As a matter of principle, I also personally object to living under a 'law' which is largely as a consequence of the influence of the RC church (like pub closure on good friday).
My prediction is that this thread is going to degenerate into the anti abortion side using emotive terms and talking about murdering children etc....while the pro choice side will continue to argue about the rights of a woman....and no one will agree when life begins....etc....
Its a predictable debate that has no real answers because it comes down an individuals moral compass as to whether or not they are anti or pro.

I was under the impression it was the result of several referendums.
The church is also against murder. Is that a good reason to legalise it?

I struggle to see your point. No form of contraception is completely reliable. No woman should be forced into a pregnancy.
I think that very few reasonable commentators would view abortion as a form of contraception though. The physical and emotional toll it takes on many women is immense.
What possesses someone to start a debate on "askaboutmoney" about the rights or wrongs of abortion? Try EUMOM or Magicmum or Rollercoaster if you really want to get into it.
Silly silly.
Like I say an emotive subject. No babys are unwanted and thats a fact.
...there are queues and queues of people prepared to put themselves through the mill in order to adopt a baby.
