Do you feel that way about other sins against children? Or other forms of murder?

As a husband, my primary concern is to save my wife. My secondary concern is to save my children. So I would save my wife. As to the flood, that’s not relevant.

Does abortion involve a sin against children?
But if someone's right to privacy or bodily autonomy is being violated by a child, does that person have the right to defend themselves?
Abortion has not been classified as murder in the US. However, if a zygote is threatening to murder a woman via an ectopic pregnancy, does she have the right to defend herself?

Under the U.S. Constitution abortion will never be "murder" without a Human Life Amendment ratified by 38 states. Remember, for many years our Constitution only counted slaves as "3/5ths" of a person--for representation only--and it took a 4 year civil war to grant them their humanity.
Remember that 38 states have now ratified the 1970's Equal Rights Amendment--and it still hasn't been added to the Constitution, and women like me still aren't "equal."
Let's get equal rights for women into the Constitution before igniting a second Civil War--fought on two fronts, the East Coast states and the West Coast states.

In every death penalty state i can think of, the murder of children is enough of a special circumstance to make seeking the death penalty a no-brainer.

Maybe not for long -- the right to privacy was implied in Griswold v Connecticut (1965), Roe's precedent...
... see "The Arizona Plan" in the OP -- is eliminating the right to privacy a bug or a feature?

So you would support abortion to save the woman's life. Fair enough; laws should have exceptions.
...except some states disagree -- Alabama and Oklahoma, for example, allow absolutely no exceptions in their bans... not even for the life/health of the fetus or woman.
Your opinion?

That "most innocent among us" may be actively, though not intentionally, threatening the life, bodily integrity, health and safety of the person in who it resides. Removing the threat unfortunately means removing the fetus from the body.
