Sounds like the type of thinking displayed by the forum—an overemphasis on law coupled by a disregard for biology and medicine. In Kohlberg terms this is pre-conventional moral thinking. In contrast, statements I've made previously more closely resemble post-conventional thinking:
"We are not slaves to rules—even the Bible asks us to break them when better outcomes can be achieved (e.g. Jesus healing on the Sabbath, or David eating bread from the Temple). As such, I have no issues with abortion being justified under some scenarios but not under others."
