Either because what is inside her does not yet meet her definition
of human (even if it meets your definition) or because she is in
the tragic position of having to choose between her life and
safety and the life of another.\

That is your morbid excuse for all abortions?

I give you a good reason:
Women should be in command of their life and their body, all bodily
functions like reproduction included. Something like a nonexistent
supernatural nobody or a group of self righteous (patriarchal) zealots
who have nothing better to do with their life than making others feel
miserable should have no say in this matter. Don't like it then go and
jump! Good riddance.
Demonising sex, prohibiting birth control, idealising asceticism and
calling all this good moral do nothing for creating a healthy society.
Unwanted children are a drain on social resources and a real curse on
the life of everyone (including their own). Sounds harsh to put it in
these terms? Yes, it is harsh. Do you think child abuse is not?
Do you think that a church controlled orphanage is a glorious solution?
Do you not know that rejected children suffer psychologically sometimes
till the end of their natural life?
Is suffering the true goal of human existence?

I
know of nobody who thinks of abortion as a good thing; simply
something that, on occasion, is that which causes the least harm
to the fewest people.

Occasion?
Are abortion clinics open on Christmas and July 4th. etc?
Or are abortions performed as part of marriage ceremonies?
What occasion are you referring to?

What kind of silly argument line are you following here? I could not
care less about your July 4th just as much as I do not expect you to
care about March 15th. (I bet you have no clue what I am talking about.
You would never have heard of the country, which celebrates March 15th.
Do you even know where Europe is on a world map?)

It's never a good choice, but it may well be the least worst
choice. Regardless, the choice must ever be the woman's (with the
advice (but not consent) ideally of the father and certainly the
physician).

Too bad it isn't written into law like that, huh?

Thanks to idiots like you? There are so many bad laws around and you
are feel proud that this is so!
