> Should be interesting when they find out the reality of abortion laws in much of Europe. Indeed. Let's take Germany as example: * Abortion is always illegal in Germany, because courts have repeatedly found that the fetus has a right to life. (This occurred at almost the same moment as Roe v. Wade.) * However, Section 218 of the criminal code has decriminalized abortion in some circumstances: * Before 12 weeks, with counseling and waiting period. * After 12 weeks, when rape or medical necessity is involved, with approval by two doctors, and possibly counseling and waiting period.
