You managed to weasel out of most of my points, which doesn't make for very fruitful discussion. But I have one more thing to add: > This argument assumes that abortion is not inherently wrong. Many people who oppose abortion do believe that it is inherently wrong. No. If they believed it, they wouldn't themselves get an abortion when having a child would be bad. Soooo many stories of pro-lifers preaching one thing, and doing something else when they themselves face a situation wanting to abort. They are "excused" because of the circumstances, but when others have the same problems, they are "immoral" for getting into the situation. That's hypocritical, and shows it's more about imposing moral values onto others and controlling them, not a belief about it being inherently wrong.

> You managed to weasel out of most of my points, which doesn't make for very fruitful discussion. It seems to me that you are the one weaseling, since the points you are responding to bear no resemblance to any points I've actually made. > Soooo many stories of pro-lifers preaching one thing, and doing something else when they themselves face a situation wanting to abort. I am not any such "pro-lifer" (I'm not a "pro-lifer" at all, that's a buzzword, just like "pro-choice" or "bodily autonomy"). So whoever you think you are responding to here, it isn't me. Nor are all people who believe abortion is wrong "pro-lifers".
