Nothing at all. But what does this have to do with abortion? Most places in America, the abortion limit is 24 weeks except in rare cases, like when the mother's life is at stake.

It thought it was reason.

I personally know women that have had abortions. These women are doing just fine. Very average and healthy, with much better prospects in life opposed to raising a baby.

Yes, they have so much soul, they feel they have acquired moral superiority to all of those poor, impoverish, potential mothers.

What's wrong with an appeal to emotion?

Yeah. This is typical. This is much like a peeve I have in my church. You always hear that "The most important principle of the gospel is..." and then you just enter whatever it is you're teaching so it's a big deal. I can't believe how many most important principles there are.
Heh... you do realize what context he said that in, right?
He was explaining how acts that some people find distasteful, or even downright evil, can sometimes be necessary to serve the greater good.

Wow. Now if we can just give God the same consideration He will cease to be a cruel God.

Abortion is a choice. Although I would never have an abortion I firmly believe that everyone has the right to make that choice for themselves. Women should have the options to control their own bodies and lives. I also think it is easier for men to be pro choice because they do not have the burden of being stuck with the child.

What have you got against the unborn? Do you not realize you were once as they are?

I don't think that the problem of evil is a problem at all if God is as limited in ability as a human being.

Yes, I was once in a womb, completely unaware of anything whatsoever, and could have been legitimately aborted had my mother decided to. And honestly, I can think of a lot of real life applications that are far worse than never having existed.

My womb had 5,000 square feet, a lily pond with unicorns and a three car garage.
To be flushed out of that.
Sorry Mom!
