I'm about as pro-choice as they come - but there are lines to be drawn. One line I draw is that I would not *ever* seek to compel a physician to perform a procedure that they believe is morally equivalent to murder.
If we *did* do that - you know what you'd see? A whole lot less practicing OB-GYNs, and the world would be worse off for it.
I completely get your point, but if someone's life is on the line then I still think they should be required to save their patient.
