Abortion was a lot easier for me to form opinions on before I got pregnant. I used to think that abortion was totally OK as long as the fetus wasn't viable outside the womb (24ish weeks). But things aren't so "clear" when you actually have a baby in there.Hillary wrote:What are the non-religious reasons for being anti-abortion? I'm presuming here you mean regardless of how advanced the pregnancy is.
While I totally want to support those women who have suffered the horrors of rape, or have critical medical problems, it's so hard for me to just say, "Yeah - ditch the kid." So admittedly, I'm really flaky when it comes to the abortion issue. Politically, I side for choice because I don't want to subject people who are truly suffering to my wishy-washiness, but I really, really don't like abortion.
