Sorry, I wasn't clear. When I say that the abortion sucks a lot, I wasn't referring to the moral struggle, but the physical aftermath. It is very unpleasant, from what I understand.

Again, not sure of your bio on the morning after pill - I think the egg is fertilized, but the morning after pill prevents it from implanting in the uterine wall. Not a big difference to me, but it may be a key difference to you if you are basing your opinion on whether the pill prevents fertilization or aborts a fertilized egg.
