It seems that many people have no problem with women dying or being permanently injured in back dark alleys having illegal abortions. Or the emotional and mental trauma sustained after a rape or incest and then continuing it for 9 more months during the pregnancy, or dissappearing for 9 months to have a baby and give it up for adoption so you can return home and continue your life or staying home in an unwanted pregancy and then suddently being not pregnant and not having a child to show for it or the trauma of giving the child up after birth. Now let's add into it the stigma involved in each of the cases. Even worse, the number of teenage girls who will make these terrifying decisions without their parents knowledge and sometimes not live through it.

It doesn't matter what anyone posts on this issue. I will not be convinced otherwise. I have heard it all.

>>Maybe I don't understand it well enough, but I thought that all children who die before something like about 8 years old are automatically saved. If you believe that a fetus say a couple of weeks old is a child, and it is aborted, then it is automatically saved, no? If you don't believe that that fetus is a child, then I'm not sure I see the issue, but like I said, maybe I don't understand it well enough.
