her fetus ?

if she did I think it'll be a bad example for teenage girls. or they could spin it and say she had a miscarriage. or she could dig deep marry the guy and be a bright example for Conservatism.

1/7/2008 1:21:17 AM

i think she should abort it to keep the intelligence of our gene pool from degrading further.

1/7/2008 1:22:48 AM

chop down her entire family tree.

1/7/2008 1:24:03 AM

yep, and all females that get pregnant and dont really feel like having a kid should abort also

1/7/2008 1:27:44 AM

i think she should abort it, and let me impregnate her

1/7/2008 1:28:17 AM

This thread demands the animated gif of baloo skeeting on her face.

I think her having an abortion is a bad example. It would be telling girls that if they have unprotected sex and get pregnant, it's ok! All they have to do is go out and get an abortion. I'd like to see one of these celebrities take the responsible route by having the child and raising it properly. She has the financial resources to do it. The reason teens shouldn't have babies is because they can't raise one. She CAN provide it a home and food and clothes. Ok, yeah, she might not be the best mother. But who really is? You have to learn to apply yourself to learning HOW to be a parent. If she only tried, people would be more supportive. It would also be the best thing she can do for her reputation.

1/7/2008 2:23:52 AM

she should pull a Juno

1/7/2008 2:28:12 AM

Yeah I've got a better example.

She can have the child, prove she's an incompetent mother, hire somebody to take care of the kid, then the kid it turns out isn't taken care of at all by the person she hires (who turns out to be a deadbeat crackhead) then she and the crackhead go to jail for being negligent, and her kid gets taken in by social services.

That would be much more to entertainment tonight's liking.

I pray for miscarriages on a daily basis

1/7/2008 3:05:49 AM

uh if she were going to abort, she would have done so already, and probably would have gotten away with it without anyone finding out. She has absolutely no incentive to announce her pregnancy to the world beyond wanting to actually raise the kid. This greatly jeopardizes her career. She had a reputation before this of being a non threatening teenage girl on Nickelodeon (or was it Disney Channel?).

1/7/2008 3:38:47 AM

Haha, now on Nickelodeon, her show Zoey something...she is going to leave to go to some school in London.

1/7/2008 3:46:48 AM

i believe OK magazine paid her like $1,000,000 for her exclusive interview

1/7/2008 4:10:57 AM

Yeah, she's pretty much wanted to keep it since she went public

1/7/2008 6:34:53 AM

In one of my soc classes we learned that this is idea of "abortions are bad" is construct of United States culture. In many many other cultures folks wouldn't judge a woman one way or another.

1/7/2008 8:31:06 AM

"rape is bad" is also a construct of United State Culture. Go to Africa and you will see systematic rapings. It is believed to be a man's right.

Just because other cultures view something as "ok" doesn't necessarily make it ok.

They should be relegated from primetime TV news to just the next episode of COPS

people have an unquenchable appetite for this stuff

it's been going on since before they invented tv

1/7/2008 8:46:25 AM

She should if she is anything like her sister

this wouldn't have happened to a celebrity family from the Northeast. They're Southern and that explains most of it.

-

but she could have announced the pregnancy with the intent to have an abortion to spite the public. and make a political statement. possibly have the abortion and then support the PRO-CHOICE candidate in 08'. that would be KEEPING IT UNBELIEVEABLY FUCKING JUNGLE, B !

like a 3rd tri-mester abortion.

Sure it does. There. Morality is entirely relative. There are no set morals, although many cultures may share similar ones.

1/7/2008 10:20:05 AM

I agree. Why are American ideals about homosexuality, abortion, and other taboo issues automatically better than another culture's? This is one reason I stay away from organized religion. I'm a strong believer in Christ but I don't appreciate someone who thinks they are holier than me telling me what rules I live my life by. Many of these religious-based taboos that part of our popular culture have no Biblical backing.

1/7/2008 10:27:05 AM

I agree with you....I was going to respond but you said it spot on !!

1/7/2008 10:41:40 AM

don't make this a TSB thread... that's exactly what amsterdam wants, just stop

1/7/2008 10:42:29 AM

i think she should abort herself and her whole family with a shotgun.

Some morality is relative. Indians don't eat beef out of respect for the animal. However, some crimes are against humanity and SHOULD be considered universal (although, admittedly, they are not). African tribes who perform female genital mutilation, rape women as a right to me, etc... those are crimes against the very nature of mankind. And for people to cite moral relativism as to excuse this is just as morally repugnant.

1/7/2008 10:54:57 AM

So moral relativism is morally repugnant? I think you missed the point.

1/7/2008 11:02:17 AM

50 million fetuses have been aborted in the US in the past 30 years.


enough to offset the baby boomers retiring and keep the social security system going, as well as many other aspects of our country.

abortion has become a way of birth control, and i feel that is wrong.

fuck your holier than thou attitude about religion and morality.

1/7/2008 11:07:57 AM

I wasn't talking about abortion, but since you bring it up...

If a culture finds something immoral, they make it illegal. Abortion is currently legal, and therefore must not be considered immoral.

The death penalty is a similar example. It's legal here(and practically no where else in the world), so it must be moral here, and immoral everywhere else.

If you disagree with these laws, change them. But at the moment, your views on morality are not supported in this culture.

Incidentally, I never stated my position on either of these issues, but you can curse at me anyway if it makes you feel better.

1/7/2008 11:30:11 AM

hahahahahahah, motherfucker basically just said that all laws are moral.

1/7/2008 11:37:03 AM

she is obviously going to have since she made it public. aborting is out of the question. this thread is moot and worthless.

1/7/2008 11:37:15 AM

If she keeps looking like this, she is gonna stay pregnant.

I think most people do, whether they admit it or not. It's definitely the smart thing to do. If you went to Saudi Arabia, you had best cover your body. Not doing so would invite trouble.

As for the death penalty, by my count 133 countries have abolished it, 64 still practice it, but the United States is the only one of those with a "western" culture. A map of these countries clearly illustrates how relative morals are based on location.

smc is a fucking moron.


you are taught morals by your parents, family, friends, teachers, etc.

morals are based on what is right or wrong.

i dont need a law to tell me its immoral to kill somebody, to cheat on my wife, or club baby seals.
