How do I deal with a friend with EXTREMELY different views on abortion than myself?

I am not in favour of abortion. I don't dare judging women who made their decision in favour of abortion, because there are too many circumstances I would not be able to answer to. I used to have a "friend" who argumented in favour of abortion of a baby from his girl friend and I did not talk to him again, since.

Your boyfriend wants to make a point. And the way you describe it seems that he imposes on you. In case you love him and want to have a child with him then it is a good idea to talk with him about this. Tell him that you love him and that you would like to have a child with him. if he does not want to have a child with you, but does not care about i.e. protective measures (condom, etc) you should not have sex with him unless you are ready to abort your child.

So Ray, what shall it be? Abortion is a decision you have to make and it will affect your life and your health for quiet a while. I heard from one woman - a couple of years after her abortion - that she still wants her - aborted - child to live. She cried - after years.

come across a compromise. I in simple terms surprisingly a lot go away it to individual determination. the way i seem at it, if abortion is forbidden with the help of your faith, then you certainly shouldn't get one. persons sin. whether you view abortion as homicide, people who do have an abortion take the result for their determination, in simple terms as people who dedicate a homicide on yet another individual. they must stay with it, in this international or the subsequent. in spite of everything, i've got discovered that abortions are something this is finally left as much as a woman. that's her determination, and there is no way that somebody could be attentive to if she does have one except she comes to a decision to furnish that information.

I sympathize with you, it is a pretty offending view on abortion. Agreeing with abortion is one thing, but using it as a form of birth control, over and over, simply becasue it is free is just outrageous. It's also a shame that whatever girl he is with agrees with this method. I would just explain to him how much you disagree and how angry and upset it makes you evertime he brings it up. If you want to remain friends with him, just ask him to leave the subject alone or you're going to have to take a break from hanging out with him.

He sound like an idiot. To look at a breathing live baby and then say she should have got rid of it is going a bit to far in my eyes. And to say people who have kids should party all the time why would anyone think that.

I could not be friends with him.

Just say "Look, you made your point, moving on...how was your day?"

No reason to cut off a friendship because he had a different (and twisted) view than you. He doesn't agree on something with you- but other than that it seems like you two are good friends. Just nip it ASAP when it happens. Say " Im glad I'll never be in that situation with you" and smile.

your right and hes sounds really stupid and heartless.

ask him if he was loved as a child, doesnt sound like it, tell him to keep his nasty opinions to himself when your around.

i would tell him he is extremely immature, and that i no longer wanted anything to do with him inless he changed is horrible ways. goodbye and dont look back, thats what i would do.
