These conditions are not cured by abortion, but can be significantly affected by pregnancy. Bear in mind the severity of illness, or the required treatment for these disorders can have a devastating effect on the unborn child, especially psychotherapeutic drugs, and obviously chemotherapeutic agents. And I know someone is bound to say the alternative 100% guarantee of death by abortion is a worse alternative, I do hear you loud and clear. The effects of some of these diseases and treatments on the fetus though should not be dismissed. And that is not addressing the psychosocial implications of these illnesses or treatments on the mother and family.
And what percentage of total pregnancies, including those aborted by mommy, are victims of those medical conditions. I am not saying that I would approve of them being legal but I want to know what level of danger justifies terminal abuse of millions of babies every year in your logic. That is the terms we SHOULD be using. not pro-choice but pro-terminal abuse. That's abuse that ALWAYS ends in the victim's death. You want an murder-for-free pass because you are "mommy", well,,,, No.

Then let us consider that while they still enjoy those added protections and are calling for even more they are not only failing to protect the unborn babies in their care but are actively killing them when they become an inconvenience or a bad memory result. Then, while espousing a supposed total rejection of any man molesting a child they either participate in or condone the vilest form of child molestation there is. And the victim of that molestation always dies where the victim of male molestation often lives and recovers. Then you think these killers of the most innocent deserve male respect? I just don't see the logic, and it has nothing to do with religion and everything to do with privilege and responsibility to their charge to protect children above all else. It used to be children first, then women and lastly men. Now it seems it is women first, children second and men last. They put themselves before children, then try unsuccessfully to take some moral high ground. That is not what they receive respect, privilege, or special protections for.
Men and especially men in the church, have subjugated women for millenia. Most still do. They don't allow women to lead the Church. They want to control a woman's body and reproductive rights.

The question asked was what medical conditions are indications for termination of pregnancy. I was answering that question.

It isn't hers to take? Where do you think a baby comes from? Who do you think must carry a baby for 9 months? You seem to think a baby isn't developed in a womans body. It's almost as if you think she borrowed it from someone else and it "isn't hers to take"? Amazing stuff there.

You say a zygote is not a baby. Ok, what about a fetus that is 7 months old and viable outside of the womb???
NO I did not say a zygote is not a baby. The DICTIONARY did! lol
As far as your scenario, why does a normal pregnancy take 9 months and not 7 months? Obviously because the "fetus" is not fully developed and needs the mothers body to finish development.

If I really believed that, why would a horrific crime, the result of which produces a life, reduce said life, simply because of unfortunate circumstances? If all life is precious, then all life is precious. Besides, how would murdering a pre born baby, who had nothing to do with how he/she was conceived, relive the pain of the horrific and cowardly act of rape?
Since you consider all life "sacred" you MUST be against the death penalty? Otherwise that would make you a bit of a hypocrite.

A fetus, by defintion, is NOT a person. The United States Supreme Court has also ruled that a fetus is NOT a person. A little reality injection.

Listen, I can't prevent women from getting abortions any more than I can stop children from dying from starvation in Africa. I haven't sent a donation to Africa to try to do something about it. Does that make me pro death? No it does not.

I had no idea I had someone omniscient posting here. Fifty years ago the same doctors and scientists you believe in said a child isn't aware of pain. If you can read the future and tell me what these same doctors will be saying in another 50 years then tell me who will win the super bowl please.
Quite frankly I'm more concerned about society helping out an actual child in need where we can really see evidence of pain, abuse, and neglect.
