Sam,
Yes I disagree because one cannot intend to kill an innocent person... and even though there may be no heartbeat... even prior to the formation of the heart period... we must protect that person whose life started at fertilization. There is no room to fudge anywhere with human life without opening a floodgate of evil just as Roe vs. Wade did in 1973. Interestingly that "rare situation" you mention here without any definition is called an ectopic pregnancy. It is very very specific and the only situation to my limited medical knowledge that can be considered reason to separate the the mother and child prematurely. Even if there is another medical condition that would require an abortive act the intention of the doctor and others invovled MUST be to save both child and mother. We can never sanction the deliberate taking of any person's life whether in-uteran or after birth. We must have a consistent ethic or we have none at all. Unfortunately moral relativism rules the day right now but this can be changed with proper education and of course, it must be changed or we risk losing all our subsequent freedoms so dependent on life. I mean is everyone one blind to the power grab going on within our government right now? It is due to this fuzzy idea of morality that has been taught in our secular public schools for generations. I was blessed to avoid such miseducation because I was raised in Catholic school until 7th grade. I then was blessed by God with mentors, holy men and women who shaped my adult understanding in these matters and helped keep me from the moral confusion our society is saturated in.
How is sperm and egg a person, scientifically? I agree life begins at conception, but some secular pro lifers think otherwise. With a heartbeat they become alive.
What if the fetus dies as a side effect of triyng to save the mother, but it isnt directly killed?
