There seem to be two camps in this debate. Both consider it to be a question of conscience and a matter of great consequence. One camp feels it is imperative that the matter be decided everywhere in a manner consistent with their conscience. The other camp feels it is imperative that the person whose pregnancy it is must be free to decide the matter in a manner that is consistent with her conscience.
Lilly Blossom and myself may be the only ones on the forums actually rooting for the abortion so long as the would be mother is okay with that decision. As a pro-lifer (as opposed to the usual pro-human lifers), I root for the sapient ones to make choices that are good for all of life. I'm in no hurry to see us exhaust our petri dish to where it begins to rot. I understand there will be emotional baggage for the person considering the abortion no matter what her decision may be. However, my moral clarity on this manner leaves me hoping choices will be made which are good for the planet.
