You know what? You have absolutely no idea. This deeply offends me.
First of all, in what world is killing a cluster of cells that isn't even aware of its existence the same things as rounding up, torturing, and killing a group of grown human beings?
But it's easy for you. If you get some girl knocked up, and you realize that you are absolutely no way prepared to be a parent or able to give the child the upbringing it needs and deserves, society tells you that you can just skip out of the picture and live happily ever after. The pregnant woman can't. Without the option of abortion, she has to carry the child for nine months, give birth, and either have to deal with giving her child up for adoption, or be it's guardian for as long as she lives.
I'm not trying to say that you would skip happily out of the picture, but the idea is that you have a CHOICE. And from that position, it is so easy to condemn. It is in no way your right to revoke.
I would probably not get an abortion, as I am uncomfortable with the idea for myself, but I am not so ignorant as to force a smug morality upon women who circumstances I know nothing about.
