The argument regarding abortion has always bothered me. On one hand a woman has the right to her body, but what if a pregnant woman likes to smoke cigarettes and drink a couple of boilermakers to relax, every day? Its her body isn't it. Or for that matter a few lines of cocaine or heroin...its her body and her choice isn't it?

On the other hand, some like to call abortion murder when it is clearly legal. To say it is murder is saying that millions of women are murders. Doesn't that cheapen, and lessen the act of murder? Isn't the worst one should call it given the law, is a justifiable homicide? And doesn't the Bible allow parents to take their childrens' lives for a variety of reasons?

What if in the future a woman gets pregnant and gets an abortion to provide neuron cells for a parent or relative to treat a stroke or parkinson's. Or for that matter, what if the Communist Chinese go into business selling fetal parts from forced abortions to those with stokes or Parkinson's.

I no longer know what to think about the issue. Its just too big for me at the moment.
