It is really quite simple: choosing to allow your infant to live, or murdering it.
Why do you place so much emphasis on not killing people?
There a more than enough of them.

This is not a problem to reconcile in John Kerry's dream world where it's possible to believe 100 or more apposing view points simultaneously, and the Media gives you a free pass.
That's easy....you don't.
Show the pictures, damn it!
maybe he believes in murder
Are you a person? Are you one too many?
I've been hammering away on this since he made his "life begins at conception" statement. There's no escape hatch from this.

Just as someone who carries a gun for self defense can be against the death penalty.
There are situations where, as tragic as it may be, one life must be weighed against another and a terrible choice must be made.
"Supporting abortion" is not necessarily the same thing as supporting abortion on demand, and limiting abortion does not have to mean taking it to Ceaucescu-like extremes of forced monthly pregnancy tests for all fertile women.
sophistry
Bottom line: kerry supports abortion, so he can't believe that life starts at conception. Its one of his deceptions in order to have it both ways. Anyone who can't see through this is dense.
Abortion and gay marriage are both punishments for an even bigger sin. Idolatry.
Exactly. The correct Orwellian word is "doublethink."
The Democrat Party's entire belief system is founded on doublethink, that is why rational debate and logic have no effect on them.
Are you a person? Are you one too many?
Sometimes I'm a person, sometimes I'm the person.
I am one too many if you are more ruthless or have a superior immune system.

LOL!
On the other hand, I am always The Man.
It's called morality, and is the foundation of a civilized society. I believe it was codified by Rabbi Hillel about 2000 years ago: "That which is hateful to you, do not do to another."
Both concepts -- morality and civilized society -- appear to be alien as far as you are concerned.
Kerry aside, under human law since the beginning of time, there has never been a situation where the taking of a human life has been completely proscribed regardless of the circumstances. The commandment is "thou shalt not murder," not "thou shalt not kill."
It is not morally inconsistent to both recognize that a foetus is an individual human life and that in some cases, such as an ectopic pregnancy, that this individual human life must be ended.
This is what puzzles me about the abortion proponents - they don't seem to recognize that every state had a "saving the life of the mother" exemption in their abortion ban.
