If this is the reason why killing is wrong:
"Cutting off their life prematurely and thus denying them of any experience they might have had..."
...then I don't see why ya'll think abortion is just dandy, but whatever.
First, I didn't argue that that's the reason. It's one way to reasonably answer the question of the OP in the specific case illustrated.
Second, unlike with the case described in the OP, abortion is complicated (the rights of the woman must be considered above all else in this case) and holding laws against it does lead to bad consequences.
