You're being much more lenient than I! Where did you get "4.5 months" from?

It is a political issue, based entirely on collectivism. And there is nothing "moral" about politics.

Got facts to prove that in bold, I do not agree with that number? it is a fetus until it can live outside the mother on it's own, which yes can be in the time period you mentioned. I am against late term abortions except for serious medical reasons, but up to 3 months it should remain something the mother has the right to descide. I would love to see fewer abortions and more adoptions but that would take some serious effort for all parties to change the way many view the issue.

Why do you draw the line at three?

Well, since you already *know* what an abortion is, and you have your own *opinion* as to why women have the procedure, why did you even ask the question?

Methinks there's an agenda here.

Popcorn, anyone?

A moral issue. A personal moral issue. No one else really has a say in what happens in and to my body.

Which is why I think it's irrelevant whether you think it's a fetus or a baby or where you draw the line. No one, be they a fetus, a baby, or a fully grown adult gets to live inside me without my permission.

It's a very personal issue, each person has their own opinion and beliefs, it's not something I care for but it's up to each person how they deal with it.

It's a personal issue and that's it, or should be it.

So is choosing for someone that isn't aware that they will have a bad life if born.
