It causes the intentional murder of a child. When a brutal husband or boyfriend punches a pregnant woman and induces a miscarriage, he is liable for the murder of the child. This is a misnomer. A surprisingly large number of women have miscarriages, including both of our mothers. Miscarriages are never intentional.
Miscarriages are brutal and sad.
They result in the unintentional loss of a child and the perpetual scarring of a mother. Truly, RU-486 does not induce a miscarriage but allows for a private murder. Do not allow the noble women who have had miscarriages to be lumped together with those that chose to kill the child within them. Many people may be quick to defend this drug cocktail in the name of potentially saving the life of a mother and in cases of rape or incest. But the point they are missing is that it is morally wrong to perform an evil act to achieve a good end.
