as pointed out above... this position is untenable. either you believe abortion to be the act of killing another person, or you do not believe it is killing another person.

you're forced to choose between murder or something similar to an appendectomy. it's either a grave and deadly issue, or one of little consequence.

if the catholic church holds that abortion is tantamount to murder and you profess that it is not, you are not a catholic.
