Abortion in the case of rape or incest is the only situation I can think of, outside of sharia law, where an innocent victim is executed for the crimes of another.

This is why the “morning-after pill” can make sense.

Abortions after being fertilized should only be performed if the life of the woman is in doubt, then it is simple self-defense.

Exactly. This is literally “punishing the child for the sins of the father.”

Excellent point. Its still a connivence factor, has nothing to do with how she got pregnant.

The cases of pregnancy caused by rape are extremely low..think of how difficult is for many couples who long for children to get pregnant. They have sex at special times, eat special foods, take medications.. Besides, I believe that the trauma of being raped causes chemical/hormonal changes in a woman that make conception more difficult.
