Anti-abortion acitvists do rather represent the worst of human beings,don't they?

[SolidGoldBrass]

Dishonest, ignorant, supersitious, woman-hating and sexually dysfunctional. What's not to despise?

If you don't approve of abortion, don't have one yourself. it's fair enough not to like abortion. It's not fair enough to actively involve yourself in removing other people's human rights for your own stupid malevolent faulty reasoning.

I actually rather agree with you on that, SGB. That's why I keep tempering my argument with, "as long as we have a legal system." Personally, I would prefer a more self-governing society.

I still disagree with your fundamental assertion that we're only talking about the woman's body though. All these assertions of woman-hating etc. are perhaps true of some people's feelings on abortion, but for most people uncomfortable with abortion, there is a clear question of how to protect the vulnerable.
