...it would be inhumane to expect her to carry the fruit of such a hellish act in her womb for nine months....forcing her to live with this for every minute of every waking hour. it's too much to expect. rape or incest is the complete dehumanization of a woman.

I have a half sister, who, when she was born in 1965 was the product of a rape...the rape of my mother, while she was in a hospital. To use your words, she was 'the fruit of...a hellish act'.

She was carried to term (abortion was illegal then) then given for adoption...raised in a wonderful Christian home...married...and today has 3 beautiful children of her own.

I would say that her life is precious, and deserved the complete protections of the law that she enjoyed in 1965, wouldn't you?

Rape or incest are horrible crimes, but the children that are conceived (in rare circumstances) are innocent victims too.

...rape or incest is the complete dehumanization of a woman..

No. As horrible as rape is, 'complete dehumanization' is death...the death suffered by the millions of babies killed by the abortionist trade.
