No, it is an innocent child that pays the
ultimate price.

I can see the argument, the fetus is alive. But so is the man on deathrow, that you so gallantly said couldn't be aborted.

Someone on deathrow does not just wake up and find themselves there. To be put to death there generally has to be overwhelming evidence of guilt. Note: guilt. As in, guilty of a horrible crime against humanity, not an innocent unborn child that is the result of a mistake by careless parents. Wait, you say, what about methods that a parent can prevent said mistake from happening? That is what contraception (or abstinence, heh) is all about, and RU486 in case "the condom breaks."
There is an incredibly huge difference between the two issues, and it is not hypocritical at all to value the life of an innocent child over that of a convicted serial murderer.
