excellent post, AGDee

Especially about abortion being "okay" if a woman was raped, etc. Where's the line? What counts as rape? A criminal trial could take well more than the 9 months of gestation. Plus appeals. Some go on for years and years.

If it is so wrong, then why do some people believe that abortion is okay in some circumstances (rape, health reasons) than others? If abortion is murder and wrong, then why is is okay in some circumstances?

Do pro-lifers really want to see a country where abortions aren't out there? All the back alley, illegal procedures that would end up killing many women?

Also, as a general rule, conservatives have been more in favor of state's rights, rather than federal government running more (though recently this has seemed to fly out the window)- why is it the federal gov't's job to rule on this? It's a state's rights issue.
