Changing the comments

August 25, 2008 by Andrea Mrozek 1 Comment

Comments are posted for this week, here. As of today, we are switching to posting comments under the post themselves, ie. no more Comments page. At the launch of ProWomanProLife, too many comments flowed in, and I couldn’t balance with the dayjob–so we pushed it to a weekend format, which allowed me to review once a week. Two things have happened since then: I have gotten used to the daily maintenance of the site, and comments are more manageable, save for the spikes that occur when issues arise–which has been often enough, but anyway.

Thanks for writing in, and please continue to do so. We’ll still moderate the comments, so posting will not be instantaneous or automatic, but on a shorter delay, and under each post.

This week’s comments are up. Sorry they are late. It’s summer, and I’m working on diminishing the amount of time I spend in front of the computer. This weekend I was very successful.

The fathers of abortion

July 20, 2008 by Tanya Zaleski 1 Comment

Of our most recent comments, one by reader Christy Knockleby hit on something that I feel needs further addressing. She said:

It seems to me that if we claim the decision is between the woman and her doctor, then it would make sense to let the men off the hook, doesn’t it? Of course they were involved in creating the pregnancy, but if they’re not supposed to be involved in the decision to abort…. why are we supposed to judge them for the woman’s decision? Except of course nothing is clear cut.

Indeed nothing is clear cut. What of the men who suggest, pressure, or encourage an abortion to a woman who decides to carry the baby to term? Chris Rock does a bang up job explaining this reality. (WARNING: This is Chris Rock, people. Be ready for some seriously foul language.) To cut to the chase, jump to the 2 minute mark.

All humour aside, what guilt does the man harbor, watching this unwanted pregnancy develop into a newborn baby; a doting child? How does that affect the father’s relationship with his child? And with his child’s mother? Statistics suggest that more than half of abortions involve coercion, either by a mate or a parent. Translation: Abortion is not purely a choice between a woman and her doctor.

So should these fathers of potential abortions keep silent? Pro-abortion etiquette would tell us so. One big problem with that: women don’t generally equate a man’s silence with love and support. Quite the opposite.

Read the new comments, here. A lot of pro-abortion comments, a lot of pro-life comments, a lot of just plain ole’ crazy comments. I’ll let you decide what’s what. Thank you as ever for writing in. (And by the way, sometimes I call things “crazy” and I mean it in a good way.)

Now is as good a time as any to remind or let new readers know that we publish comments weekly.

This is why.

And thank you for all your comments. I apologize that I but very rarely have the time to write back personally.

There are many this week: Enjoy them, here.
