Purpose: noun
1. The object toward which one strives or for which something exists; an aim or a goal: "And ever those, who would enjoyment gain/Must find it in the purpose they pursue" (Sarah Josepha Hale).
2. A result or effect that is intended or desired; an intention. See Synonyms at intention.
3. Determination; resolution: He was a man of purpose.
4. The matter at hand; the point at issue.
In this case the purpose would be to discourage or eliminate abortion, as method of birth control for example, or a convenient way to avoid the consequences of ones choices and actions.
A phony purpose would be to use abortion as an issue to put over one's political agenda, which I suspect ninety percent of those who claim to be against abortion most vociferously are doing. You are a good example, I think. But that's only my opinion.

You’re still talking in circles. What you posted did NOT answer the question.
Did it ever occur to you that people can be opposed to abortion for the simple fact that it’s a hideously barbaric method of execution?
If anyone killed a child or adult by hacking them apart limb from limb without anesthesia, or scalding them to death by dumping them in a vat of lye, you’d find out just how many people REALLY oppose the death penalty.
What political agenda would someone being advancing by using abortion as the issue?Instead of vaugue innuendos, why don’t you just out with it and tell us what you’re accusing us of?
I see you’re back. I expect an answer to me regarding your garbled and unintelligible post. Anytime will do...
