Abortion question: which one would you save?

I would save the 4 year old. Your question made me think, but I am still Pro-Life. That was a hard choice...

Kalel, you need to change your question. I see a lot of pro-lifers opted for saving the child, but only because he (presumably) has parents. Force the issue: make the hypothetical child a complete orphan. So, would you save a 4 year-old orphan who is utterly alone in the world or 1000 frozen human embryos, most of which have parents? That should make things interesting.

Response to update: I would save the child, regardless of his family situation. In my book, the value of a person's life isn't affected by whether or not he is alone in the world. But then for me, life begins only with viability.

Eventhough, I am not for abortion I would save the child. I see the point you are trying to make about this, but to me a person killing a human embryo inside of the womb is killing a human being. Yes it may not be a human being at first, but it will be one in the very near future. But to continue on your answer that child is probably someone's son or daughter and that would be my choice, but that choice does not mean I would shape my social policy around it.

I would save the 4 year old. I feel OK about it. While the embryos are just as alive as the child they don''t have a known mother that would miss them like the child.

I would save the living breathing child. Its life has already started. The embryos are just a bunch of frozen cells in a container, they are not alive if they can be frozen for that length of time. Show me a living breathing human that has been frozen for years and was thawed out and lived.

I would save the human that presently has a soul, that breaths, that thinks, that feels, that smiles when he's pleased, laugh when he's happy, that cries when he's hurt. I would save the one that can hear me saying run this way. The on that can dance in the rain if it rained tomorrow, that enjoys fried chicken and ice cream. I would save the child.

I would save the 4 year old child. I feel fine about the answer and I'd sleep just fine that night too. It is what it is.

The 4 year old. Because he knows what is happening and is probably scared, crying. My first response would be to go to a crying child.

The child. The embryos aren't really alive yet. Plus, there are already too many kids in the world. Who needs the 1000 more..

Easy, I would save the living breathing 4 year old!
