You're free to believe whatever you like, no matter how goofy. You are free to act on those beliefs in your own life. Your rights end there. Abruptly.
the gap lies in what one believes is a life. The pro choice have imposed death by denial of the right to live on 49 million.

Pro choice does not believe that the embryo is life therefore you can marginalize it by saying the mother has a right to kill.

You are free to believe what you like no matter how goofy, You currently have the legal right to this genocide as the Germans made it legal to kill Jews.

You deny and embyo has the right not to be denied life. Denying some the right to live is murder. People can hide behind their secular belief that woman has the right to murder, because she can choose to do so. Just becasue its legal does not make it right.

Why are so many ardently pro-life folks strongly opposed to birth control measures that would minimize the demand for abortions?

And I disagree. Again: Not all killing is considered murder.

Or every soldier who has ever killed is considered a murderer.

Or whenever you kill someone in self defense, you should be prosecuted for murder.

Or whenever you kill someone by accident, you should get the book thrown at you.

As far as i know soldiers do not perform abortions.

How killing an unborn self defense? unless the mothers life is in imminent danger.

Abortion is not an accident its pre meditated act of murder.

I disagree. And so does the legal definition of murder.

Also, I never said it was self defense, although it could technically be considered so, if the woman doesn't want the fetus there. What with the fetus sapping her nutrients against her will.

My point was that not all killing is murder. Abortion is killing, most definitely, but I don't think it's murder.

All abortions that are performed fro any reason but defending the life of the the mother is murder. You can say that the fetus us a lower level of human life so it is ok to kill it with abortion. it is the same argument we made about slaves being a lower form of life so we could treat them how we wanted. same argument germ,ans made against Jews they are a lower for of life so it was OK to exterminate them.

I choose not to see that as a valid argument. If you believe it is life then to deny it the right to live is murder
