Abortion in all it’s forms is murder. There is no space for an “exception”. Adoption is the answer.

You, your spouse and your child in a lifeboat. Boat cannot hold three, only two (disregard body size for this mental exercise). Sharks will devour anything that goes in the water. You must choose one to go in the water and perish. Who goes in? You swore fidelity to your spouse, your spouse swore fidelity to you. The kid is the odd-one out. But who among us would throw the kid over? Impossible choices we all hope to never face.

Not sure which one I get more grief for. Both are pro-life stands, one is more popular than the other.
The Lord above gives life. It is not for man to take away.

Capital punishment is not murder.
