Ah, but there's the rub - with abortion, by definition the live of another is not only endangered by destroyed. At least that's my viewpoint on it, that life begins at conception.

There's this little thing I have that's a plastic model of a fetus at (I believe) 10 weeks. The little thing is life size, and it barely fits in the palm of my hand, but it's clearly a little human... it has visible arms, little hands... as far as I'm concerned, that fetus is a *person* just as much as I am.
