On the other hand some people are happy to have abortion available up until birth
A fair compromise would be to make abortion legal in the 1st trimester, up to 12 weeks
By the 6th week a woman knows if she's pregnant. That gives her 6 weeks to have the abortion done. Plenty of time
2nd and 3rd trimester abortions should only be performed if there is a physical danger
Would that be a fair decision?
Nope.
You are clearly not a parent.
You are obviously avoiding the whole notion of spontaneous abortion.
You seem to have some happy clappy idea that it all just works because magic.
From 50 years experience, I can tell you that it does not work like that at all. Not even close.
The religious inflict all manner of horror upon women. It's their MO.
I have no need of your trite religious platitudes. I have lived that nightmare. I have two fine healthy children. But their predecssor was spontaneously aborted. We wept bitter tears. A child. A planned child. A child that we named and even had a relationship with.
And your god saw fit to kill it.
That makes your god a c**t. He/she/it/housecat does not care. You believe in a deity who is randomly cruel.
Grant a child to loving parents? Who will love and cherish and provide for such a child? Nope. Your god apparently prefers to allow the birth of children that will suffer in agony. Because he likes it.
All that superstitious nonsense tells anyone is that your superstition is more important to you than anyone's life, let alone children.
This is what religion does to you. It makes you abdicate normal human morals in favour of some imaginary Santa Claus that fixes everything while fixing nothing.
Frankly, you sound like a kid.
