I'm not trying to be a smart ass or go off on some crazy tangent with this, but a lot of the questions those who are against abortion present can also be applied to animals.
Those against abortion, do you eat meat? If so, you do realize that the animal you are eating was slaughtered and essentially raised to die? What gives humans the right to kill animals in that manner?
What about eggs? Those are dead chicken embryos that could've grown into full chickens. You take those chicken's lives away so you can eat.
I guess my point is... what does it matter? Why would you care so deeply for an undeveloped human embryo, yet at the same time disregard supporting life of all kinds?
Sure, tons of moral questions could be brought up about killing animals for food, but most people don't worry about it. Why is that?
I think at some point you just gotta either accept some morally questionable (on some level) things we do as a society (porn, drinking, cigarettes, abortion, etc..) as a fact of life or forever take a stance fighting the never ending battle to change the way things are.
