The ancient Greeks thought about this. Their answer was to leave the new born baby on the side of a hill to die, better death than a life of torment. But let me turn this question into a more comparable situation. Say that the doctor didn't find out until the 8th month of the pregnancy...would abortion be just as moral as if it were during the first trimester?
If not female: Your mother, sister, daughter was raped and is pregnant - how do you proceed? How does she proceed? Cause it has to be her choice (not the father, brother, husband).
If female: you are raped (hypothetically speaking cause this should never happen, ever), how will you proceed?
Are you saying that only rape victims ought to have abortions? Otherwise, why concentrate on that? The main concern is on demand abortion.
Victims of incest become pregnant - how do you feel they should proceed?
Your life is in danger (as the mother obviously) and you are pregnant, how will you proceed?
You have a lifethreatening disease for which you need immediate treatment, but you are pregnant, how will you proceed?
How much is that "human life" worth to you really?
