What's your position on abortion?

I personally believe that abortion, at any stages of development is wrong. Medical science has developed to a point where it is more difficult to justify the position that abortions be peformed when it threatens "the health of the mother". Liberal proponents of abortion have tried to use that argument to include mental health, something that is very difficult to substantiate.

The late term abortion process, a.k.a. "Partial Birth Abortion" is nothing short of infanticide, as it requires the child to be born up to the head, then killed, and removed from the birth canal. There is truly no justification of this procedure, since a healthy child could otherwise be delivered completely.

My position is to support adoption. There are many families in this country that cannot conceive children and would dearly love to have children to nurture (my wife and I thought this was the case with us, it took us 9 years to conceive our son), but the prohibitive costs, red tape, and the fact that there are not enough children to go around, so to speak, causes many of them to remain childless. Encouraging adoption instead of abortion will serve these families.
