My question has been, how does anyone know if any of the egg released from the fallopian tubes are met by a sperm, thus becoming a zygote? Isn't it possible that none of the eggs are fertilized? And if that is true, there is no abortion, because there is no chance of a fetus forming, to begin with. How can that be called an abortion, when no one knows if fertilization has taken place? It sounds to me like it is a stab in the dark, assuming that everytime someone has sex, the egg and sperm meet.

That's an interesting point. It's like shooting a gun into a room, not knowing if anyone is in the room. If you hit someone, it could be viewed as some form of reckless homicide rather than intentional murder.

Oy...your post is just too logical for the fanatics here to grasp.

Russian Roulette has been known to kill a percentage of people. Not always however.

We do know for sure, if someone doesn't aim the gun at their head, they won't be killed by the gun, even if they might die for another reason.
