Personally, I am not willing to compromise on the issue of abortion. The only time that an abortion could possibly even be permissible would be when both the mother and the baby are doomed to die unless the abortion is performed and I suspect that such cases are extremely rare. Here is more information on what the Bible teaches about abortion:
I think we can all agree that the number of abortions taking place needs to be reduced. But how do we go about reducing that number? I don't advocate putting any restrictions on abortion but I do advocate reducing the need for an abortion to begin with. Increased usage of contraception would be one way to reduce the need for abortions. Make contraception cheaper or make universal health care a reality so that way contraception is something everyone can afford. Also, provide cheaper and more affordable care for pregnant women or again, make universal health care a reality so that all women can afford pregnancy care. Make adoptions more easily affordable and make it easier to put a child up for adoption would also help. However, I don't think that banning abortion or putting restrictions on abortion is going to help. Neither do I think we should do that. The reason? Women should be free to get an abortion, without restrictions, throughout all 9 months of her pregnancy or at least for the first two trimesters. I might be ok with restricting abortions in the third trimester or past the viability stage.

I think we can all agree that the number of abortions being performed needs to be reduced, right? Or are there actually some pro-abortion people on here who could care less about whether the number of abortions is reduced or not?
