Wow! Thats so close to the Muslim practice of killing the victim of rape!It is? Rapists are the victim of rape?
Ive always been against abortion, but Id never put it in those terms!
What other way is there of putting it? It's not the baby's fault its mother got raped. Why put it to death. If someone should die, why not the rapist?

It's not the baby's fault its mother got raped. And don't forget, the baby is still half the mother's. Maybe we could consider a Solomonic approach and abort the father's half?

Guess I wasn't clear. I meant I had never considered putting it in those terms, and doing so was an "aha" moment for me - the previous poster made a statement that was, in my opinion, profound.
And I was indicating that killing the baby who is the result of a rape is comparable to killing the woman who is raped instead of the rapist. Both cases punishing an innocent victim, instead of the perpetrator.
