Do you think a woman with an ectopic should be told, "Screw your life! We are going to take a chance that at least the child makes it"?

Calm down. No, in fact I know a few who almost died. As I said even the Catholic church makes exceptions for ectopics. Again, that is not the main point. The main point is the children who are NOT ectopic and are merely inconvenient. Please, don't confuse the two.

I once read of a case (sorry, can't link you to it) where the court intervened to remove a woman's right to choose to NOT have an abortion when she was with ectopic pregnancy. Her husband and father of her other three children went to court to prevent her from 'russian roulette' with possibly removing the living childrens' mother from this earth. as I said, this is all about life support, or should be, rather than convenience.

The child is going to die. It can't survive. The woman will die too without sugery.

Bella, that argument is a fallacy, used by the political left in this country, to blur the distinction, prior to ROE, the laws favored the already living in a case like that, outlawing, rather abortion for convienience' sake. READ ROE, most of Blackmuns justification centers on material convienience, and that is not a suitable reason for the taking of innocence, in your hypothetical, the Mother should be protected, always.And you would be hard pressed to find disagreement.
