This is my opinion. There are societies in the world that do not recognize a birth until a child is one week old. It’s true those are in places that have had a very high incidence of death of the newborn. My view is a life does not exist until it is self sustaining and is no longer in the womb. That means it is independent and can breath on its own.
I support a woman’s right to obtain an abortion. Having a child and helping that child to reach adulthood is a big responsibility. Having an abortion is a very emotional decision and it is very personal. Forcing someone to bear the burden of childbirth and child rearing should not be a decision made by society.
The defeat of Colorado’s Amendment 48 by 2/3 of the voters was a very good thing. Jamming your religious or moral beliefs down the throats of others is immoral.
I know many of you will disagree with this view. I hope I am in the majority.
