No, I don't think it is murder. But the big thing about abortion is that when a girl is raped she can become pregnant, and so it would not be fair to her for her to keep the unwanted pregnancy. But on the other hand, some women just have sex all the time and get abortions. It's not a big deal to them..So it's mostly up to you to decide. Because this is a reason why the law can't decide between the two.

It's like this.According to the law,if anyone else including the mother carrying the baby kills the fetus on purpose,It's murder.If an abortion"doctor"does it,it's not.
Of coarse this makes perfect sense to the pro abortion crowd.

Legally, abortion obviously is not murder.
But many people believe--mostly for religious reasons--that it is (BTW--I personally don't approve of abortion). The debate that continues to swirl around the whole issue tends to obscure two facts:
1) to date, the "pro-life" advocates have yet to produce a substantive legal arguement to support their belief--all their arguements ultimately come down to personal (moral or religious) belief.
2) Unless and until anti-abortion advocates can come up with such an arguement, their position amounts to trying to impose their religious beliefs on everyone who disagrees with them--and that is wrong.
P.S. Most people actually have no idea what "Roe v. Wade" actually says--and if they did it would be a disaster for the religious right--because more people would be aware of the extent of their misrepresentation of the law, its rationale, and what it says.

As a mom, a nurse, and a midwife. I can only tell you my own very personal feelings. I know within 20 days of pregnancy, sometimes even before a woman even knows she's pregnant, the baby's heart is already beating. So, I say this is a living human being. I call it murder, and I know I'll get a lot of flack from my answer, but, I'm only stating my own opinion. I am very against abortion. ~~~

Yes. Once the egg has implanted and attached to the uterus, the baby starts to form. 10 days after conception, the heart begins to beat. The fetus has a beating heart, it is alive and aborting it IS murder. They rip it apart, piece by piece and then crush its skull. How horrible is that!!

Whether you like it or not, abortion has existed for thousands of years with the use of herbs, midwives, self-inflicted wounds...
I think that you have to make the moral decision for yourself. I don't approve of abortion, but I would never take away someone's right to have an abortion. I do think it is an amoral choice.
But I also know that women who are molested; cases of incest; and life-endangerment should be given the option of abortion, regardless.

the only way that an abortion should happen is if the mother is physically unable to have the child without dying. if you cant afford your son/daughter then you should have thought of it before and there is always such thing as adoption.

Murder......absolutely!! I think that if you abort then you could possibly change the course of time. Your baby may have been a great Christian leader.
