A totally different look at abortion. I doubt we have ever thought of it exactly this way.
It reminds me of King Solomon's solution for the two women arguing over a baby
about who was the real mother.
A worried woman went to her gynecologist and said: "Doctor, I have a serious
problem and desperately need your help! My baby is not even 1 yr.
old and I'm pregnant again. I don't want kids so close together."
old and I'm pregnant again. I don't want kids so close together."
So the doctor said: "OK and what do you want me to do?"
She said: "I want you to end my pregnancy, and I'm counting on your
help with this."
The doctor thought for a little, and after some silence he said to the lady: "I think
I have a better solution for your problem. It's less dangerous for you too."
I have a better solution for your problem. It's less dangerous for you too."
She smiled, thinking that the doctor was going to accept her request.
Then he continued: "You see, in order for you not to have to take
care of 2 babies at the same time, let's kill the one in your arms. This
way, you could rest some before the other one is born.. If we're going to
kill one of them, it doesn't matter which one it is. There would be no
risk for your body if you chose the one in your arms."

The lady was horrified and said: "No doctor! How terrible! It's a crime to kill a
child!"
child!"
"I agree," the doctor replied. "But you seemed to be ok with it, so
I thought maybe that was the best solution."
I thought maybe that was the best solution."
The doctor smiled, realizing that he had made his point. He convinced
the mom that there is no difference in killing a child that's already been born
and one that's still in the womb. The crime is the same!

That is a great storie! I don't see how anyone thinks its ok to end a pregnancy, you created that baby. The baby didn't ask to be created so why should it be punished for it?
