      Abortion should be legal in Poland and that's the first thing.The sooner we
      get rid of catholic fanatics the better for everyone, especially for that poor
      women relaying on that crap sheep and it's crew. Poland is still in diapers if
      comes to women's rights of making choices in different things, not mention
      abortion. Women should decide about that because they breed. That's their body
      and they decide about that.

        Yes brookie, just look at this map www.womenonwaves.org/pol/pol_laws.html We are the red dot in the middle of the white, and then of course Africa and all undeveloped countries. Perhaps we should join African Union instead, we wouldn't be so lonely. At school I learnt that Poland was once the last bastion, the last frontier between civilized, and then Christian, Europe and Asian infidels. We have been very proud of that fact since. We haven't noticed though that the times have changed and Europe is not that Christian anymore. But here in Poland the faith and religion still requires us to sacrifice our women's lives. Amen!

          Oh bhoy! Our mother land, red eagle on the white map of civilization.
          And the majority of the nation proud of making Poland more visible.
          Polish and African women have lots in common then, that's shocking!
          In that case rapists must not forget of providing comdoms, or maybe every
          potential victim should have one just in case. Catholic Church don't mind to
          welcome some fresh bastards.

            And Brookie, you forgot one thing. To say amen.
            In Holland abortion is legal and it doesn't mean increasing of abortion
            procedures, because contraseptive products are available like milk or pot.
            No one is concerned about the religion wise,that means, less people stressed
            out and more people having free choices if comes to procreation.
            Can I say amen now? Sorry, I've already said that at the begining.
            Brookie and Awalk, this time I agree with you guys.

              I forgot to mention about Australia. It's marked yellow which means abortion
              is legal if comes to mental health. Everyone in Australia has mental problems
              ( English people shouldn't have sent that amount of freaks to Australia ).
              But as far as I know, pregnant woman complaining about the depresion has the
              chance to do abortion legally. And many women give birth every year just to
              recieve the family assistance. They don't have desire to work, but that's
              their choice of living. The thing is that they are able to make a choice.
              They think it's fine to gain extra 20 kilos, but they don't have to worry
              about work in the next 16 years. After that time they apply for a pension.
              • glory Re: Women on Waves 24.06.03, 11:32
                Yes, I agree with you brookie. Comparing to you, those Aussie chicks look like
                100 years old elephants. And further more, I think you're right. England
                really sent too many idiots to Australia. But than again, who cares!

                The only assistance you get in Poland is when they throw you out with your children into the street. It is called eviction but unlike abortion it is absolutely legal.

                  Eviction with a young children, that sounds familiar in polish environment.
                  And where are the catholics right now? Prying for some lost souls?

                          O.K. Let's call them Human Beings or People. I used the word "babies" only to
                          avoid repetitions. What I mean is evident if you read the beginning of my
                          letter.

            Well, at the risk of being a pedant, I' d suggest insertion of a
            word 'possible' between 'KILLING' and 'HUMAN' and then I'd ask you for a
            definition of the latter because it all depends on the timing... in my opinion.

            (...)"The developing brain and nervous system

            The brain begins as a hollow tube. Neurons are generated along the outer walls
            of this tube and then travel to their proper locations in three stages:

            Cell production between 10-26 weeks after conception. Cells are generated at a
            rate of 250,000per minute in the foetal brain"(...)

            > Not an embryo , not a foetus , not a number of cells but A BABY.

            Again, being emotional doesn't help. Stop shouting. Are you suggesting that a
            lump of living tissue without any nervous system is a human being? Appears to
            be just that before, to be absolutely sure, the 10th week...

            > It is out of

            Can you substantiate this? A meaningful link, perhaps?

            That's exactly what I'd like to know... Just one little change: When does the
            heart start BEATING?

              Butter_fly, thanks for correcting me. Fish can bite, o yes sir!
              Once I was pulling a big motherfucker shark. We managed to do it. The monster
              was already on a deck. He looked quite dead. Quite- and that was my mistake.
              I was kissing his nose for the photo picture and shark suddenly decided that
              he wasn't dead yet and he bit me. But I'm telling you what, my head stucked
              inside of his jaw and thanks to my drunken friend I still got my head. He used
              a hammer to bit the crap out of that beast. Anyway, to make a long story short
              shark was cut into fillets and grilled with egzotic spieces and washed down
              with italian Chantii.
              From now on, sharks don't fuck around with Glory.

                I'm pro-choice too, but what can be done to give a choice?
                I can't get it. Let's say for example, abortion is legal but it's not about
                killing but about the choice. What choice do I have when abortion is not legal?

                  "Every year the Pope kills tens, possibly hundreds of thousands of the world's
                  most vulnerable people by the simple expedient of forbidding Catholics to use
                  condoms. While his imprecations are dismissed by most churchgoers in the First
                  World as a load of papal bull, in countries in which there is little access to
                  alternative sources of information and in which women have few rights, every
                  papal decree against contraception sentences thousands to a lingering death.

                  There's no question that the Pope sympathises with the victims of AIDS. In
                  Italy he has hugged AIDS patients in public. In San Francisco, he kissed an HIV-
                  positive baby. He has urged sufferers to "feel Jesus at your side, and through
                  your hope bear witness to the life-giving power of his Cross." Unfortunately,
                  however, he has exercised the power of the cross only to spread death.

                  Teaching people about safe sex, the Vatican says, is "a dangerous and immoral
                  policy based on the deluded theory that the condom can provide adequate
                  protection against AIDS." Sex education, "above all in relation to the spread
                  of AIDS" is an "abuse". In 1995, when a French bishop suggested that people
                  infected with HIV should use condoms, the Pope promptly sacked him. Last month
                  the Vatican used its seat at the UN General Assembly (where, preposterously, it
                  has national status) to disrupt, yet again, the UN's family planning and AIDS
                  prevention programmes.

                  There are 122 million Catholics in Africa. Whenever the Pope visits them he
                  explains that the only acceptable form of family planning is strict sexual
                  abstinence. He told the Nigerians that exploiting the poor and ignorant is "a
                  crime against God's work." But every year he exploits the poor and ignorant by
                  preaching against the condom.

                  Many of Africa's Catholic bishops know that the Pope's position is absurd, and
                  quietly, privately, they have tried to undermine it. But they are also keenly
                  aware that, unlike dioceses in prosperous countries, they are almost entirely
                  dependent on the Vatican for funding. They know that they and their churches
                  will survive only if, in public, they do precisely as they are told. So in
                  Zambia, Malawi, Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda, some of the countries with the
                  biggest AIDS problems on earth, prominent bishops have insisted that condoms
                  should not be worn. Some, who share the Pope's views, go further, and suggest
                  that condoms spread AIDS by selectively leaking the virus.

                  Every time the bishops speak out, they reverse years of awareness raising
                  (often, paradoxically, by Catholic charities and local churches) about AIDS and
                  how to prevent it. Men looking for an excuse to practice unsafe sex seize on
                  the Church's teachings. People who do use condoms deny it, ensuring that the
                  safe sex message spreads more slowly than the disease."

                    A very good article. The problem is that Polish people are unaware of such views, and our media feed them with carefully prepared, censored and distorted information.

                    For example our media and most people in Poland don't see anything wrong in showing the cross (with a tortured, bloodied, dying man - nailed to it) to young children; at the same time they are against scenes of violence on television!

              I've just noticed this plot (I think I can call it just like that) and I've
              found it very intersting. My mind is divided into two ways of thinking. First
              is against abortion - and I'm about to explain it in a sec, second- accepts it -
              FULLY. As for me, women have rights to decide about themselves - isn't that
              what our grand, grandmother fought for- so ... When I watch TV and watch those
              who are protesting against abortion I can see olny men and older women - who
              rather won't have children anymore. Nowadays, when we have a look at people
              leavig churches, we can see much more older than younger people. Why is that???
              Young pepople have changed attitude towards Church which their parents have
              been sharing for years. It also means that we do not (cause I young) share
              their opinions anymore. We want to make a headway- a huge one. And to do this
              we also have to have full, unrestricted rights to decide about our lifes - be
              free. No matter if somebody like it or not - abortion is an indivisible part of
              our every day choices. So, LET US, WOMEN, DECIDE ON OURSELVES!!!

              Above I mentioned the other part of me- that one which do see some obstacles.
              Maybe, someone who will read my opinion will say - how stupid she is, she
              cannot decide YES or NO. But, let me explain. I'm one of this women who,
              despite many trials, cannot have baby. So you can understand that one part of
              myself cannot understand when woman, who was blessed by God, does not want to
              give the life to her baby. Of course, I would do anything to be in the position
              of woman who is about to do or thinking about abortion- cause this would meant
              that I am pregnant - But, unfortunately, it was not given to me!

              But still I am a feminist and a free, modern woman who wants to decide , to
              have right to decide and feel free

            Of course not. There are many reasons but the main one is poverty and all its side effects. Have you ever heard about it Andy?

              Awalk is right. There are drunk women getting pregnant while having a party,
              smoking pot and sleeping around. The future of the babies they breed and
              responsibility for them doesn't bother them. What would you say then?

                I would ask the same question to you Brookie. I still believe that people
                should take responsibility for their actions. If that's the way they behave
                that's their problem, but so is the pregnancy. They should take responsible,
                morally wise steps to deal with the situation in the best way possible, which
                in my opinion can never be abortion.

              Why can't people write on this forum without making condescending, borderering
              on insulting comments - there's no need quote: "Have you ever heard about it
              Andy?". I hoped for intelligent debate.
              Now, I asked a simple question and the answer you gave Awalk was poverty. So
              are you trying to say that a pregnant woman thinks in this way:
              'I am pregnant, I cannot carry this child for 9 months, give birth and bring
              it up because I can't afford it so I'll just get rid of it - it's better that
              way.'
              I would guess it's a bit more complicated than just poverty. Adoption is an
              alternative, especially in Poland where there is a relatively high proportion
              of couples who cannot have babies of their own.
              Maybe someone could give a fuller answer?

                OK, Andy, can I then ask you to state clearly your position on
                legality/illegality of abortion and briefly say why it is so? Then, we can
                perhaps discuss things... I, for one, detect 'high moral branch' but no tree
                for that branch in your way of arguing.

                I can't agree more Andy - indeed if Polish law was better it would be easier to
                adopt children and there would be fewer unwanted ones. On the other hand it's
                not as easy and obvious as it seems. A pregnant woman might have an idea about
                her future life and might be ready to agree to 'give the baby away' but once
                it's born things might change. I know a young girl who's been a mother for a
                few days now, and she unlike many of her girlfriends didn't go for abortion
                only because she heard the baby's heart during one of her prenatal examinations.
                Her life is extremely difficult now but I don't think she'd decide to give her
                daughter away.

                Another, more important thing is the level of education in Poland, I mean
                sexual education.

                And yet another thing is contraception - that should be free.

                I agree adoption is an alternative but it is legally difficult and time consuming. Here things can also go wrong; not all people are responsible. I refer you to bf again, women are mostly very reluctant to give away their babies, and for a very good reason.

                  Are you suggesting Awalk that it's easier for a woman to kill her child than
                  give it away?
                  Chickenshorts - I am against abortion for the reason that it is the killing of
                  human beings.
                  As for education and free contraception: I doubt whether Poland could afford
                  free contraception, although it's a good idea. Education is the main problem in
                  my opinion. The Catholic church must learn that its anti-contraceptive teaching
                  is causing a large proportion of the problem. They can't have their cake and
                  eat it.
                  Polish kids must have a moral and complete sex education and the pill should be
                  more easily available. Maybe then people would stop using abortion as a
                  contraceptive which it most clearly is not.

                      I've just heard it on Polish Radio III - modern cotraception is used by just
                      over 6% of Polish women. Most 16/17 year-old mothers have no idea how the hell
                      they became mothers!!!! One 16-year-old mother decided she wouldn't go for any
                      sort of contraception cos that would lead her to losing memory (that's what is
                      happening to her friend)!!!!!!!

                      A lot of people would like to have the choice to kill, fortunately it's against
                      the law.

                      The fact that we kill a lot of human beings and your use of that in your

                      begins at conception, there is no argument to that. Scientific fact. Whether
                      you feel that it is a human being is beside the point. Conception is the start
                      of a life.

                      Give those who are not already born a chance to do something about it. Who

                          My opinion is simply that abortion is wrong (except in certain specific
                          circumstances) whether it becomes legal or not as it is the killing of a human
                          being. I remember seeing the ultrasound scan of my child at about 3 months and
                          it is easily recognisable as a human being.

                        Yes, it seems it is, except that it is not a murder just a killing of a few cells.
                        Read this, it is a good example.

                        Sprogs For Sale
                        Polish tabloids raised a storm last weekend
                        after police in the southern city of
                        Opole detained a 30-year-old Romany pair
                        with a newly born child they said they had
                        bought for $200 from a local woman. The
                        gypsy couple ? who live and work in
                        Sweden ? reports later confirmed, paid the
                        girl?s mother to allow them to informally
                        ?adopt? the child.
                        ?There was no bad intent towards the
                        baby, when we took her back she was wellfed
                        and washed. They just very much wanted
                        to have a baby and went for adoption in
                        the most foolish way possible,? said prosecution
                        spokesman Roman Wawrzynek.
                        27 year-old Anna O. gave birth to the
                        child in mid-June but left the infant in the
                        hospital when she checked out, telling
                        authorities she was not going to raise her.
                        According to hospital sources Anna O.
                        had done likewise with her last child ? her
                        fifth ? before returning to reclaim the baby
                        a week later. This time, a week after selling
                        the child, Anna O. showed up at the local
                        police station saying she felt bad about selling
                        her offspring. Police detained the
                        Romany pair on their way back to Sweden.
                        Officials are investigating whether the
                        affair also involved bribery of hospital staff.

                        So it seems that even such bad mother as Anna has problems in giving away her child. I can understand it. There is a difference between a child and a clump of cells even if it is a potential child.
