From the Political Compass thread:

Murder is murder; is murder, in God's eyes. Why should a few inches of body mass, designating the location of the person being murdered, negate the parent of the child being held responsible for murderous and painful execution of that other person within the walls of one's body, having no means of self defense?

Really?

If men strive, and hurt a woman with child, so that her fruit depart from her, and yet no mischief follow: he shall be surely punished, according as the woman's husband will lay upon him; and he shall pay as the judges determine. - Exodus 21:22

God appears to disagree with Buzsaw on this one. There's another verse where killing a slave is only a punishable offense if he dies immediately after you "strike" him: if he lives a day or two, it's only property damage. As loss of a fetus, above, is just property damage.

Re: step by step

After millions of years of evolution of psychological mechanism hardwiring a child's head to have a father and a mother, how good do you think it is to put him with two fathers or mothers ?

How about two or three fathers and one mother?

Ache [a Paraguayan tribe] data on multiple fathers and found that 70% of children with only one father survived to age 10, while 85% of children with primary and secondary fathers survived to age 10.

How about cultures where mothers, aunts, and grandmothers do the child-rearing, and fathers are rarely present?

.....most woman only have the illusion of choice: the only choice they have is to abort.

Maybe in Quebec. In Texas you can't drive down a major highway or look in the Yellow Pages without seeing ads for "abortion alternatives."
