I don't know whether the adoption agencies in the U.S. are overflowing or not. Your statement insinuates they are. One thing I do know is that many American couples are going to Russia and Asian countries to find kids to adopt. In light of that, I doubt the supply of adoptable children far exceeds the demand, at least in this (U.S.) country.
Addressing the original question; it is indeed a dilema for the pro-lifer of which I am staunchly one. I lean toward the position that the unborn child is innocent of the sin; so why should he/she have to pay the penalty for someone else's sin. At the same time, I'm sympathetic to the idea expressed by the individual that said the mother shouldn't have to live with the crime for 9 months. Ultimately, I think the question should be between God and the individual; which, I guess makes me (gasp, choke) pro-choice on the question. A dilema indeed!!!
