Do you not believe that there are pregnancies where the mother's life is in serious danger due to the pregnancy? Such as pre-eclampsia or a ruptured placenta that causes a hemorrhage?
It's easy to dismiss these cases until it affects you, personally. A person can believe they know what they will do in scenarios such as those, but until that time actually comes, it's impossible to know for certain what action they will take.
I live in a very conservative area of the country and most people I know are very pro-life. And some of my friends and family, who are very pro-life, and voted to ban abortions....eventually found themselves in situations where they chose to terminate their own pregnancy.
One case was a mother of 5 who developed pre-eclampsia and had three strokes before she and her husband decided to terminate.
Another was a 13-year-old who was attacked by a child predator.
The last was a pregnancy where the baby had severe physical problems and would not live very long after birth and would only know suffering.
I would hope that no matter what stance a person holds, they would still have empathy for others.
No abortion is needed to preserve the life of the mother. Delivery can always take place without a direct killing of the child. If the child is too young to survive, it will not be by direct abortion. You also don't kill a child directly if the doctors say it will suffer because they have been wrong on this point countless times. Even to the point of telling parents something is wrong with their child which often turns out to be utterly false. The conviction we live by HAS to be "do not kill innocent people" which means let GOD be the Author of life and death.
Are you familiar with ectopic pregnancies?
Absolutely. That's apples to oranges, not a direct abortion at all.
