Do you mean you're conflicted on whether it should be a legal matter? Or just about the ethics?
I'd say that anyone who thinks there are no ethics to consider whatsoever is oversimplifying the issues as much as someone running around with "abortion is murder" posters. Personally I see being pro choice as the lesser of two evils. As with all things in life, it's about the best compromise given the situations we find ourselves in.
I can't speak for LadyForCamus but I personally feel very uncomfortable when I contemplate the actual mechanical procedure involved in rendering down an eight month pregnancy so that it can be removed from the womb.
Having said that, there should be no time limit if the mothers health is in danger. Now as to where the cut off point should be in all other cases, I have no idea.
It's amazing 'science' always seems to 'find' whatever it is funded for, and never the oppsite. Drich.
