Whether or not you "believe abortion is wrong" is irrelevant. The question is, would you, if you could, ban it? Would you, if you could, stop other women from having one? Do you have the courage of your convictions? Do you vote only for political candidates who want to ban abortion? If you were on a jury, and abortion was illegal, would you vote to convict a woman who had an abortion?

We've all got "feelings," but what matters is whether we have the courage to act on them.

I, personally, believe that abortion is murder, past a certain stage of fetal development. I believe it is morally unacceptable, and should be legally banned, except where the life of the mother is at stake, or her physical health is in serious jeopardy.

Enjoy your blindness, I think you work hard to keep it.
