"I just did a paper in my ethics class on abortion. Abortion is murder. The fetus is a living human being at the moment of conception, and should be protected. At the moment of conception his or her gender, eye color, bone structure, hair color and skin color are all made."
*****You see, I just don't think that abortion is murder. I do not think that life begins at conception as the fetus is, to me, clearly not a living human being. It has the ultimate potential to live, but doesn't.
Since there is disagreement, and no universally recognized authority, I believe abortion is a deeply personal, moral decision. One that should not be fodder for the political realm or imposed on another.
I do, however, respect and understand your views, but they simply do not reflect mine.
