I think I agree to some extent, but only over the age of majority (18 in USA). At that point you are responsible for your decisions and should practice safe sex or abstain. Younger than that, for example 2 high school kids have sex, idk if it’s immoral to protect their future and allow the abortion. At 14 years old you don’t have a full understanding of consequences and your future. Same reason I don’t think under 18 should get transgender surgery. After 18 it’s your choice but you have to live with the consequences of your decision
The problem i see with this viewpoint is that there are massive consequences, psychologically and spiritually, from ending a pregnancy. If a minor can't be mature enough to keep the baby then they're surely not mature enough to end its life.
Two friends who admit to having one when they were younger both said it was the biggest regret of their lives and are now more traumatized about it than when they had them. They now feel such awful shame and guilt over it.
I object to the govt having any legal say over what a sovereign citizen chooses to do to his/her own body, but once there is another life involved it becomes difficult to justify termination on any grounds.
I think if a woman is raped or cannot provide for a child, she should be matched up with a couple who wish to adopt, who can help her out and pay for any prenatal care.
You're missing the point. It's all about God! If people put God First at Everything, all this crap you say falls away. It's Not about going to church, it's about oneself that's best friends with the Lord. God's not telling you to have sex outside of marriage. He is against that. God isn't telling you to change your sex, cause God doesn't Make Mistakes. Instead of teaching people how to change themselves, we should be teaching people to, Love themselves because God loves them just the way they are.

Idealistic? Sure. But we gotta have a goal.
