It's not the same in most places on the globe abortion isn't illegal so it's not murder and again as I said before it wouldn't even be tried as murder, and never has been as far as I can see, particularly not in the case of the mother who is actually the instigator of the abortion in the majority of cases, I almost said this again before, but obviously the religous fundie banner waivers with abortion is murder on them are a bigger influence than the actual definition and societallly understood moral issues of murder and the differing views about abortion aren't considered. Again just because someone says it is so does not make it so, I should call that Sidhe's law
Esentially we all consider murder morally wrong, but I for one don't consider abortion morally wrong in a variety of cases, where the circumstances are fairly exceptional.
It's a shame there arent more women on this forum, perhaps then we'd get a view point from them.
