Thanks for an interesting article. I have always enjoyed Greg Easterbrook. Obviously, I do not entirely agree with him. Although it is true that many zygotes do not take, and I have myself contemplated acceptance of the "morning after" pill as part of a grand compromise, I am inclined to register the ambiguity of first trimester abortions by more modest penalties. There is a human organism at stake, and no clear consensus on ensoulment, as it were, and therefore it would be preferable to discourage abortion from the start.

Of course, my postition is to thrash these matters out in the state legislatures, which, to my mind, is the benchmark of moderation.
