I disagree. Not every abortion-hater thinks that abortion is murder. But they all think that it is morally wrong. However, that is not sufficient to say that abortion should be outlawed. I think that hunting is morally wrong. Yet I don't favor prohibiting it.

LG, I guess I don't get it. If abortion isn't murder and deprives nobody of their rights, what is there to hate about it? Why do the abortion haters who don't want to outlaw abortions find it morally wrong?

What would be morally wrong about abortion if it isn't killing? I don't doubt you believe that, I'm just wondering on what basis you judge the removal of tissue from a body to be immoral? Would you think removing a tumor would be immoral, or a mole?

I do understand that we don't outlaw things simply because some people find them immoral. But I abortion isn't simply a matter of choice, because it does involve another living being.
