And once again, it all lies within religion. The Bible does not directly address abortion, but that does not exactly mean that it condones it. Perhaps God felt confident enough about His people about knowing that abortion was murder, a practice very specifically forbidden in His Ten Commandments. Therefore, abortion is removing one of God's creatures from the Earth for reasons other than to ensure our own survival. We are simply trying to communicate our reasons why abortion is morally and ethically wrong.
People can think for themselves.
We just encourage women to make the morally-correct choice and realize that there are alternatives. Not everyone is as lucky as the McCaughey's to have seven children. While doing some research on the Internet, I found literally hundreds of websites promoting couples practically begging for unwanted children to love. If a woman feels she is not capable of properly caring for a child, for heaven's sake she should give it to one of these needy couples. Adoption is a wonderful service.
