What I am asking you is, upon seeing the medical judgement of the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology, would you have come to the conclusion that the unborn is not a living human and not deserving of protection?
I've been giving your question quite a bit of thought RL.
After reading the information you posted I have to say that I would find it difficult to rule the same way the courts did. Now I say that with a few clauses built in:
1) I would most likely still allow abortions up until the 3 week period.
2) Certain cases would have to be given special attention, and allowances made.
3) Anonymity must be maintained, same as with any other Doctor/patient relationship.
Outside of that, I wouldn't have issue with the pro-life stance.
Having said all that, I'd like to note that until the laws change, I will still consider myself pro-choice.
