  1. Lotuseaters, learn a few facts about the reality of criminalising abortion. If you are not a dualist (and I don't see how you can be if you are an atheist) then criminalising abortion is symptomatic of conscious or unconscious hatred of women. Btw, Harry, who failed to take the precautions? Why is there a perennial implication that this is always the responsibility of the woman? Conflating abortion with murder - as Callum does at one pont - leads us to the current situation in El Salvador (which please educate yourselves on). A non-viable fetus is not a baby, Harry, and traditionally under English Common Law has no legal rights before the 'quickening' of the fetus, ie when it can be felt to move. It was a criminal offence to procure an abortion for someone else, but not for oneself before this time. Btw, Harry, what does the word 'menstrual' mean? It means 'monthly', so a woman would probably not realise she was pregnant before she was at least six weeks pregnant. I have never had an abortion, but then I have always had easy access to contraception, and thank God have never been raped, or been a position where my life was threatened by pregnancy, or was carrying a severely disabled fetus. However, I am sure it is not a pleasant experience, and one which would only be taken lightly by an abnormal woman. To hear you two, inexperienced, and frankly ignorant young men talking about this serious subject in such a disrespectful, callous way is shocking.
