Complying with Zeph's wishes.
I wasn't trying to insinuate that the majority of abortions were due to health complications. I'm merely suggesting that quality of life is something to consider, and if an unwanted pregnancy will seriously threaten the quality of life for the woman (before and after the child is born) then why place more value on the unborn life than on the extant one?
EDIT: To be honest, depending on how crazy/extended this gets, maybe it should just go in Dakryn's Crazy Batshit thread. I don't know how involved people intend to go with this, and I admit that I'm not entirely committed to a full-fledged argument. In that sense, I feel bad cluttering the forum with threads for debate on individual topics.
You believe that life begins at conception. Why is the life of the fetus more important than the life of the woman?
Not really the best angle for this argument. Its not like the majority of abortions are due to health complications - especially the abortions PP was in the business of doing.
