If an unborn is killed, then there's no soul available for it. The body is only a room to house the soul. If no soul is available then the body isn't needed.
The woman has a biblical attach to the baby's body while it's being prepared. The biblical cord attached from the woman to the baby is how the woman's soul is used to help support the body being developed. That is, the woman shares her soul with the baby until she delivers the baby at birth. Once the baby is born, the cord gets cut, then there's a certain amount of time to that the baby must start breathing. When the baby takes its first breath, that's when the baby's soul enters into it. That soul leaves when the last breath is taken.
People thinks that the soul is being developed at the same time as the baby is being developed inside the woman. Actually, that's not so. The soul, which is the actual individual, doesn't enter the baby until after the cord is cut and the baby takes the first breath.
Think: When Jesus was born, the bible says the biggest star appeared the day he was born. Lets say the biggest star represents God. Now think: The bible says that It wasn't until the day of Jesus birth that he had arrived to earth from heaven. That body had been inside the woman for nine months already.
Also, if you think: It was when Jesus took his last breath is when his spirit left.
What's that showing? The soul doesn't enter a baby until it takes his first breath without the cord attached, and the soul exits when the last breath is taken.
The bible says the room has already started being prepared long before the soul enters.
When you kill the unborn, you disrupt the woman's soul from continuously providing a soul for it to survive till it's been born and the cord cut and it;s breathing on its own.

I'm not opposed to it so long as I'm not required to be any part of it. Same with Chinese killing their girl-babies. Same with people dying for various other reasons across the planet.
Life happens, people die, frequently at the hands of other people. Always have done so.
We're approaching a time when a lot more people will die, most likely, for one reason or another. Probably a LOT more, bunched up together along time line.
The reason is that the human population can't continue exploding the way it's doing without something happening to stop it.
Unborn babies don't make a pimple on the backside of the amount of dying that's likely to happen to humans, one way or another. Being overly concerned about it is just whistling in the wind, drawing pictures in the sand with your toe while the tsunami draws the water back from the beach.

Very hard question!
I struggle with this question because I ‘m a MAN (what do I know about something growing within me). My wife has explained that she should have the rite to do anything to her own body (not that she is pro-abortion) and I understand her opinion.
Then, I see my children (my loving daughters) and I know there is no way of living knowing I might have destroyed one of them for the sake of ME! Yes, raising (4) daughters might be challenging, but why else was I allowed to visit earth if not for them!

Abortion is a terrible choice, but a choice none the less made in often extreme circumstances. If you would outlaw abortion then you must be willing to provide the financial, emotional and practical support to that child for the rest of its life otherwise you are applauding an ideal whilst enforcing suffering on another mother and child caught up in this moral minefield.

Catholics believe that from the moment of conception until natural death, each human being is endowed by God with dignity and rights.
You shall not kill. (Ex 20:13; cf. Deut 5:17)
Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born I consecrated you. (Jer 1:5; cf. Job 10:8-12; Ps 22:10-11)
My frame was not hidden from you, when I was being made in secret, intricately wrought in the depths of the earth. (Ps 139:15)
Early Church writings: You shall not kill the embryo by abortion and shall not cause the newborn to perish. (Didache 2, 2: SCh 248, 148; cf. Ep. Barnabae 19, 5: PG 2, 777; Ad Diognetum 5, 6: PG 2, 1173; Tertullian, Apol. 9: PL 1, 319-320)
For more information, see the Catechism of the Catholic Church, sections 2270 and following: http://www.usccb.org/catechism/text/pt3sect2chpt2art5.htm#2270
With love in Christ.

Not your pregnancy = not your business.
FYI, the Bible gives priests instructions on how to perform abortions on unwanted pregnancies:
Numbers 5:12-31 (see your Bible for the entire thing)
" . . . If any man's wife go aside, and commit a trespass against him, And a man lie with her carnally, . . . and she be defiled, . . . . Then shall the man bring his wife unto the priest, . . . . And the priest shall take holy water in an earthen vessel; and of the dust that is in the floor of the tabernacle the priest shall take, and put it into the water: . . . and the priest shall have in his hand the bitter water that causeth the curse . . . and say unto the woman, . . . . if thou hast gone aside to another instead of thy husband, and if thou be defiled, and some man have lain with thee beside thine husband . . . . And he shall cause the woman to drink the bitter water that causeth the curse: and the water that causeth the curse shall enter into her, and become bitter. . . . . . And when he hath made her to drink the water, then it shall come to pass, that, if she be defiled, and have done trespass against her husband, that the water that causeth the curse shall enter into her, and become bitter, and her belly shall swell, and her thigh shall rot . . . . And if the woman be not defiled, but be clean; then she shall be free, and shall conceive seed . . . . ."

"For thou hast possessed my reins: thou hast covered me in my mother's womb. I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well. My substance was not hid from thee, when I was made in secret, " Psalms 139:13-15
Religion may claim that if a child dieds before it is born that it doesn't have a soul. But you can't prove it from the Word of God!
If it's not a baby--you're not pregnant.

You mean abortion?
Pro-life people often use that terminology to confuse people into thinking their way. It isnt technically even a baby until it is born, it is a fetus or an embryo.
I do not think that you should be allowed to have an abortion unless you were raped, or if it is less then a month into the pregnancy.
If you are raped, I mean, come on; it isnt your fault that you are carrying the baby.

I think it is immoral.
But with the gal "Say What" - I can see her point. But I do not personally believe that anyone has the right to abort a child. If you don't want it give it up to adoption, let someone who wants a baby raise it. BUT DON"T KILL IT, that's murder....

what do you think of a child being raised by an unfit mother? or a mother that dosent want them??
also to the person who said abortion is harm full to the mothers body........actually giving birth is 7 times more dangerous than abortion. unless of course you lived in the 1800's or are talking about "at home" abortions.
