Were someone about whom I cared to have an abortion, regardless of how I felt about it, I would want her to have it done by somebody skilled and experienced in the procedure.

Your attitude is wrong-headed.

You have essentially said, 'if someone I know is going to hire a hit on an innocent infant, I would want his hit man to be an excellent marksman, maybe a sniper.'

Pretty incredible thinking, dude.

RJ...

I understand your personal statement. As a collective segment of our culture, to abide training to terminate life, is beyond me to agree with you. Soon perhaps it will be mandatory study in medicine, to perform euthanasia, of course just for those that desire it.

Were someone about whom I cared to have an abortion . . . I would want her to have it done by somebody skilled and experienced in the procedure.

If a woman trusts you enough to confide her desire to terminate her pregnancy, and you feel an obligation to support her in this, you may want to advise her that current research shows abortions cause eating disorders, chronic depression, substance abuse, confused maternal image and relationship difficulties.
