would you agree that we, as citizens, should be allowed to make personal choices about our own bodies and healthcare?
if so, you obviously believe that when a life is at stake, that choice can be erased.
which is fine -- but eventually it will boil down to an argument about whether, or when the fetus/embryo/zygote becomes a viable "life" .... which no one has the right answer to.*
*This is, actually, my source of discomfort with prohibiting abortion -- the law essentially makes a decision about life begins, which is something that most of the population has enough trouble deciding on its own!
