They say they want to save the unborn.

Is their only solution to criminalize abortion?

My guess is that if a woman do not want the baby, she morally/ethically lost her right to what happens to the baby, which means the state will enter the equation and save the baby via that artificial womb.

Aside from not wanting to undergo the procedure, which I imagine would be invasive to extract an attached fetus from the uterus unharmed, perhaps many women just don't want to have a living biological child out there. Thats why they choose to abort instead of adoption. I imagine it can be more difficult to know you have a child out there somewhere then for it to never have come to fruition.

Yes.

Your point?

Do you know how many couples adopt babies from other countries because it is next to impossible to adopt a baby in the US?

That is just sick. It's too painful for the mother to know that her child is out there somewhere as opposed to dead? And by not come to "fruition", you mean that it was purposefully killed in an inhumane manner.

Sorry - as a person who had three children, I just don't get that logic.

Me neither. Because it's not logical.

That it is less painful to kill a baby than to give the baby a chance for a good life?

Heck, the biological mother can CHOOSE the parents.

That is for a different debate.

Because the pro-life belief is that the fetus is a human being in all of our moral/ethical considerations.

For example, we expend (or waste) resources in keeping many people alive such as when they are in comas from whatever reasons.

For another example, we expend (or waste) resources in trying to help the homeless when many of them refused our help.

If the technology comes through (big IF), do you think they should force women seeking to terminate pregnancy to transfer the embryo to a state-run incubator for gestation?

There are a lot of women (and men) who do not want their actual babies. They do not lose any moral or ethical right to them. Its difficult for them to even lose their legal right to them. How many children do you think the state has actually saved?
