Are their lives less valuable?
Not less valuable at all. A negative thing happened to the mother. That could bring negative to the child. Also the mother is not responsible. And cannot be held accountable for something she couldn't help.
Yet you are holding the innocent child accountable, and killing him for the sin of being a rape-child. The fetus could not help being conceived.

Ah, so poverty is sometimes an acceptable reason for an abortion, then ... so long as the woman has been punished a priori by rape?
What if it was consensual sex between an impoverished married couple, using birth control which failed? They did their level best to avoid conceiving a child in a situation where they cannot afford. Must that woman now be required to bear that fetus for nine months, to give birth to a child which will either have to live in poverty or be given up to an impersonal state foster-care system that cannot provide for the developmental emotional needs of the growing child?
I'mn gonna level with you, Pops. I think that guys like you and me, who lack a womb and a birth canal, guys like us should shut our fucking pieholes about what a woman decides on this sort of thing. You let her make her peace with your alleged god, and quit appointing yourself to be his mouthpiece when you can never, ever know the weight of decision a woman must face in such a moment.
I don't know about you, or you Christians, or your Christ, but if I'm in the position of judging someone, I prefer to judge charitably.
