I don't believe any drug should be illegal. At least if it's legal, you can regulate it and ensure it's safe. You can also tax it, and the British Government loves that. Anyway, I digress.
I more or less agree with Silent_Killa on this. Rape victims are an exception to the rule, but proper preparation prevents problems. There really is no excuse, not even Catholicism.

It was also decided some time ago that the world was flat, just because it's old, doesn't make it right.Your age is counted from the moment you were born. It's just something we all decided long ago.

By changing that, you'd only change the line. Have no abortion possible, is that a good solution? Or would you rather have it so that you can kill your own children if they're younger than, say, 1 or 2 years of age? Or, how about just letting everyone go kill anyone he wants?

What person would even want to carry and give birth to the child of a rapist?
Be reminded every single second of that horrible thing that happened..
Indeed.

It's easier that way, doesn't make it right... I don't know what the solution is, but IMO at least, the second the sperm hits the egg you've started a person, and it wasn't anyone elses fault other than your own and your partners... with the exception of rape, obviously.By changing that, you'd only change the line.

I do think the father should be notified as well, as well as the parents if the child is under 18, unless the parents might want to harm the child, or force her to give birth or things like that. It's the child's body, and if she does not want to give birth to the child, the parents should not force her, because of their own belief. I'm glad my parents never forced their believes (in that way) upon me (that is, if they had believed in the Bible or Koran), it's still my choice whether I'd believe the same or not. It's my body and they cannot force me to do whatever it is they want done.

Abortion is simply a medical procedure. I suppose we could say a fetus is "alive" when it has a brain wave, but until then, it's still a fetus. It is not alive. A fetus becomes a baby when it takes a breath, not before.
And no the topic will not be locked because you spread your pro-life views and don't want to defend them.

No it wasn't, it's always, excluding prehistoric times, been the generally held belief that the world is round.
