What puzzles me about "pro-life" people is that naturally occurring abortions don't seem to raise their ire at all. You'd think that these "senseless deaths" would be #1 on their list of great human tragedies. These same people wouldn't consider a broken leg an act of God and leave it untreated. Why miscarriage? Why are their no cries for massive funding to end miscarriage? Somehow if it occurs as a result of the woman's immune system (a complex chemical system under her control) that is one thing, but if it occurs as a result of RU486 (a relative simple chemical agent), then it is another, evil, terrible thing. So, if a woman could activate her immune system using hypnotherapy, herbal materials and/or biofeedback to cause self-aborting of a fetus (it seems possible), would this be wrong and therefore made illegal? What about just "wishing" the pregnancy would end? I wonder.
