Hearts and minds have to be changed before abortion is a thing of the past.

I agree that we need to change hearts and minds, but that can only succeed in an atmosphere where people are willing to ban abortion. You can't tell people not to abort while simultaneously defending its legality. If you're willing to tolerate its legality, it can't be as bad as killing a human being.

We aren’t in that atmosphere yet and I don’t see abortion being banned any time soon. I hate it but unfortunately it has become more a political issue than a moral issue in our society. We have to rely more on people to people interaction than some politician. Our preachers rabbis ect.. should be driving home the immorality of abortion from the pulpits and parents should take responsibility for their children. I’m not defending it’s legality I’m simply telling others what has been said to me by people who claim they were opposed to abortion but want option available for extreme cases. Rape murder incest theft illegal drugs, all these things are illegal here and still a percentage of the population engage in these activities. It’s impossible to legislate morality.
