It does matter how it came about, as it matters if the woman was raped or not.
You didn't answer the question: If a person needs help - say medical attention - which has the higher priority? Give them the help they need? Or find out who's to blame?

The people who think abortion should be illegal consider the fetus to be a member of society and consider the abortion of that fetus to be murder.
Clearly they don't. We already have laws against murdering members of society. Either they agree that a fetus is not a member of scoiety or that killing it is not murder.

Nobody's pushing you.
