Are you pro-diversity? Do you have a problem with a woman choosing to have an abortion on the basis of gender, sexual orientation, intelligence, etc?I have no such qualms - it's not any of my business why the woman chooses to get the abortion, any more than it's any of my business if she chooses to get an abortion in the first place. I'm not pro-abortion, I'm pro-choice; ie. I don't feel comfortable making someone else's decision for them.

You're missing the point - it's not up to me why a woman chooses to have an abortion. I'm sure there are a lot of reasons women have abortions that I wouldn't personally agree with, but it's not for me to make their choices for them.
It's their right. I have a feeling with most mothers not seeking abortion, there won't be any danger for our diverse country.
Just curious, at what point is it not their "right" to kill their developing child?
When it's expelled from the mother's body.
So in your view is the child in the womb not a living person with a right to live? Why does the fact that it is out of the belly make any difference? The only difference is that it begins to use it's own lungs to breath air and its mouth to consume food. Other than that is it not the exact same child?
Yeah, but there's got to be some limit.
I'm sure you are against an adult's "choice" to kill another adult, right?
At what point do legal punishments need to enter the picture? So you think women should have the "choice" to abort a baby for any reason without any legal repercussions?
What the government says is legal doesn't make it morally correct.
Definitions of murder on the Web:
A baby at any form, is a human being, to take it's life is murder.

- kill intentionally and with premeditation;
- unlawful premeditated killing of a human being by a human being
Revelation of Peter
1:25. And near that place I saw another strait place into which the gore and the filth of those who were being punished ran down and became there as it were a lake: and there sat women having the gore up to their necks, and over against them sat many children who were born to them out of due time, crying; and there came forth from them sparks of fire and smote the women in the eyes: and these were the accursed who conceived and caused abortion.
There is a Legal and Moral side to things. Let's not forget that our morals codes-from the bible are the origins of our constitution, both in the U.S. and even the U.K. and parts of Europe.

Why are you talking at us instead of addressing the issue itself? Abortion is no more murder than capital punishment. Both are legal. I'm against the latter, but you won't see me calling proponents "murderers." I don't go around calling anti-abortion activists anti-women.
