..this is the problem from which narrow-minded people on both sides of this issue suffer. I do not compromise on principle, but will on practice. As long as the law acknowledges and works against the principle allowing the murder of innocent human life, I can be patient and allow abortions under some circumstances, even those I might personally reject. It is called rational compromise.

You are a very tolerant and broad-minded person. More so than me, I'm sure. I suspect most of what you call extenuating circumstances, I would call life. Life is full of difficulties and everyone goes through difficulties and has pressures and limited choices. Not an excuse for murder though.

And if I believed that something was murder, I'd have trouble being broad-minded enough to allow it as a rational compromise.
