The beginning of life as it's culturally defined is unscientific, arbitrary and useless. The point at which life begins is already defined objectively by biology - life begins when the first cell splits. Cultural opinions are irrelevant and little more than an excuse for relativist stupidity.
That said, I don't have a problem with abortion. It's not something I would choose for myself, but I don't think the government should be making the choice either.
AgreedGetting an abortion because the pregnancy was a mistake is one thing, because it shows something more like responsibility to make a decision about the consequences of carrying to term. But getting pregnant just to abort? I think abortion should be legal, but that doesn't mean I think getting an abortion is the same thing as getting a mole removed. It's not, or there wouldn't be such a debate.
