"I'd advise my daughter or anyone else not to have an abortion," Giuliani said. "I'd like to see it ended, but ultimately I believe that a woman has the right to choose.

I don't understand this, nor Hillary's! "Safe, but rare" position. Either abortion is acceptable, ie. morally defensible, or it's not.

I think I have more respect for militant abortion defenders than for these wishy-washy, want-it-both-ways opportunists.

it's simple.

acceptable/morally defensible does not necessarily mean 'illegal'.

a single woman can sleep around - be a whore - and government doesn't put her in jail for that. it's morally wrong...her and God will work it out, not her and the government.

it goes the same for any other individual immoral act that doesn't infringe on others' rights.

so obviously the pro-life argument is that abortion infringes on the right of the unborn to life. well, rights are conferred to 'human beings' not just any living matter (like plants, animals, etc.). so the question it comes down to is 'is the developing fetus a human being?'.

everyone has their different opinion...but since there are objective differences between that human being and a born human being (even if one considers the fetus a human being), there will always be a debate about it.
