Abortion is a sin, I know this, but is it a sin to work in an abortion clinic?
928392
Yes, because you are helping in killing humans.\n\nIf you help in doing sin, means you also share the burden of the sin.

I used to say that the anti-abortion protestors and activists  should go to the junior high and high school kids and talk to them about birth control and not having sex or whatever, because if they're harrassing girls and woman going into these clinics and making such a fuss about how wrong abortions are and making them feel like they are the worst person in the world (even though I guarantee the girls themselves are their biggest critics and already feeling like the worst person ever)they're a little late to save anyone, don't ya think? The bible is based upon different perspectives and interpretations, why else would there be so many different religions based on one book?! I am not a horrible person because I refused to have a baby at 15, and I know I am not going to hell for it or being punished in every way because everything happens for a reason, and from my interpretations of God and everything, this blueprint of my life and lessons was made long before I was even born. I believe that fetus' have a soul, but I believe that they were not meant to be born yet, and this was in their plan too, even if it was in the form of an abortion. I think God's a little more modern than people think, and times change for everyone. This isn't the same world as it was when the bible came about, let alone the stories that it's formed from. I think God is a lot more understanding and forgiving than people give him credit for.

Yes and No.. \nI know that I could have not handled another child. There is always a what-if...in the back of my mind. \nBut the experience was regretful.\n\nThe clinic sceduled all it's abortions twice a week.  There we were treated like cattle.  We were all put in a room together to sign our paper work and pop vicatin together.  Then 4 at a time we were called into seperate rooms, where we were put into stirrups.  The doctor popped from one room to the other.  The walls were paper thin, and I could hear the other girls, moaning in pain.  When he got to me, the pain killer had not kicked in, and when I yelped at the pain, I was lectured about how I had gotten to where I was (I was a married woman!).  The pain was excrutating, and my husband could hear my screams from the waiting room.\nI later found out that he had to be restrained by several staff members.  After the procedure, my self and the 3 other girls were escorted back into the "holding pen" until we were deemed fit to leave.  There we about 20 women in that room, and we could not offer support to each other.  I wanted to scream at them to get out.  But My pain killers had just kicked in, and I was so ashamed and embarassed at what I had done...that I said not a word, but I could read the fear in the eyes of the girls who had not been back there yet...\n\nWould I do it again.  No.  But is a choice I made, much as yourself.  And it is not a shameful one.  Have pride that you were smart enough to know that you weren't ready to be a mom @15. God bless.

Those mothers who want to abort their babies are the murderers including the doctors who take the part of the killing jobs are murderers, so are these people who support their actions, too ... but take a hope....Jesus will forgive the mothers and doctors if they confess their wrongdoings and to reprent from their sins... they will be forgiven!!! It never is too late  for them to receive God's forgivness.

Where *exactly* in the bible does it say "removing a clump of cells is wrong"? and please, don't try the "thou shalt not kill" maneuver. You can't kill something that isn't alive. btw, alive= thinking & breathing, which a fetus doesn't do until the 2nd trimester. Also, that reasoning only applies to people that belive in the bible, which most don't. \n\nPro-lifers often change their tune when faced with an unwanted pregnancy. Just look to our fine presidant as an example. He supported his girlfriends abortion, yet is pushing to make it illegal and force women to resort to "back alley abortions" once again.\n\nIn answer to your question, I think it's about control. Control over what women do with their lives, control over prisoners, and control over other countries.

Every clinic charges a different amount. It normally has to be before the 12th week.\nI considered an abortion when I first found out I was pregnant, but decided against it. I now have a beautiful baby girl who I don't think I could live without. Please make your decision very carefully.\n\nOne of my friends sent me this:\n\nMommy, I am only 8 inches long, but I have all my organs. I love the sound of your voice. Every time I hear it, I wave my arms and legs. The sound of your heart beat is my favorite lullaby. \n\n\nMonth Two \nMommy, today I learned how to suck my thumb. If you could see me, you could definitely tell that I am a baby. I'm not big enough to survive outside my home though. It is so nice and warm in here. \n\n\n\nMonth Three \nYou know what Mommy, I'm a boy!! I hope that makes you happy. I always want you to be happy. I don't like it when you cry. You sound so sad. It makes me sad too, and I cry with you even though you can't hear me. \n\n\nMonth Four \nMommy, my hair is starting to grow. It is very short and fine, but I will have a lot of it. I spend a lot of my time exercising. I can turn my head and curl my fingers and toes, and stretch my arms and legs. I am becoming quite good at it too. \n\n\nMonth Five \nYou went to the doctor today. Mommy, he lied to you. He said that I'm not a baby. I am a baby Mommy, your baby. I think and feel. Mommy, what's abortion? \n\n\nMonth Six \nI can hear that doctor again. I don't like him. He seems cold and heartless. Something is intruding my home. The doctor called it a needle. Mommy what is it? It burns! Please make him stop! I can't get away from it! Mommy! HELP me! \n\n\nMonth Seven \nMommy, I am okay. I am in Jesus's arms. He is holding me. He told me about abortion. Why didn't you want me Mommy? \n\n\nEvery Abortion Is Just . . . \n\nOne more heart that was stopped. Two more eyes that will never \nsee. Two more hands that will never touch. Two more legs that will never run. One more mouth that will never speak

Personally, I believe abortion to be wrong. I will say that to anyone. Most people don't have a problem with getting someone to at least stop and think before attaining an abortion. You always make a better decision when you think about all available options. BTW, I do help feed the hungry.

it wont change true christian minds. Abortion is wrong...period.  It doesnt even matter to me if they are born that way or not.  We are told not to engage in homosexual activity.  They might not be able to help their desires but they can control their actions.  Some people are genetically prone to be controlled by a substance ie, drugs or alcohol. Their desire for that will be very strong but that does not mean its ok to act on that desire.

Haha, a fetus doesn't go to Heaven if it's aborted--fetuses lack souls!  That is why abortion isn't a bad thing.  Well, also the fact that abortion helps to conserve the environment, as too many people being born will eventually kill those of us already here as our resources are depleted......

If a Christian commits abortion, they need to examine whether or not they have truly repented and made Christ Lord of their life.  Consider 1 John 2:4:\n\n"The one who says, 'I have come to know Him,' and does not keep His commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him."\n\nTo read about biblical perspectives on abortion, please visit the first two links below.  If you know someone who has already commited abortion, please refer them to the third link (Healing Hearts).  For general information on abortion, please visit the last link, Abort73.com.

you can very well believe in God yet still think abortion is okay, but it is wrong.\n\nto those who think abortion is fine, that its not murder, just go do a google search of websites that show you photographs of aborted children. you will see they have arms and legs and hearts and brains...\n\nsome even have full bodies, they just look... well... dead.\ninfact, here are some sites to copy and paste:\n\nhttp://www.100abortionpictures.com/Aborted%5FBaby%5FPictures%5FAbortion%5FPhotos/\n\nhttp://www.christiangallery.com/smdead.html\n\nif you dont want to see VERY graphic pics, dont go there. if you want to know the truth, have a look.\n\nbut every one of them is human when aborted.\nso, abortion is literally murder.\n\nIf your "mature" enough to have sex, your "mature" enough to take responsibility for your actions. and if you were raped, there is adoption. no excuses.

It's not.  Abortion is not okay.  The only time abortion is acceptable is in the case of rape, because no kid wants to grow up to find out they were the product of rape.  I despise this culture of checking if your kid has Down's syndrome and such like prior to birth, as people react by aborting the foetuses.  How dare we play God just because someone is not conventionally perfect?  Everyone has value.\n\nNo, abortion is wrong too.  It is murder.  It is the decision to terminate another life, and the other person is entirely powerless to resist.

no. that would be violating the patient's rights. abortion is a medical procedure and is just like any other procedure--confidential.

No.\n\nSin is a deliberate thought, word, deed, or omission contrary to the eternal law of God. \n\nIn other words, sin is anything that hurts your relationship with God.\n\nSin is a personal act. Moreover, we have a responsibility for the sins committed by others when we cooperate in them:\n- by participating directly and voluntarily in them;\n- by ordering, advising, praising, or approving them;\n- by not disclosing or not hindering them when we have an obligation to do so;\n- by protecting evil-doers.\n\nWith love in Christ.

I think it depends upon your motives and purpose for lying. To lie to get out of personal responsibility or for unjust gain, then it is sin. If it is to save lives as Christians did when hiding Jews during Nazi occupation or when the midwives went against the Pharoah in killing the firstborn males of the Hebrews, then God will commend your actions.

And you were appointed to your office of holy judge by???\n\nYou make a good case for retroactive abortion.

Definitely.  Just call me Job. It is ok to argue with God. He gave us good minds to use, and arguing with authority is not a sin. However, refusing to do what He says I think is sinful, and usually He won't let you sleep until you do what He says...   :~)
