http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-northern-ireland-20321741I don’t like abortion, and I can understand why someone would want to outlaw it. Pro-life views are respectable if driven by the right reasons—concern for the unborn, rather than desire to control women.
I used to be pro-life, in favor of outlawing abortion in most cases. Now I understand the dangers that abortion restrictions create for mothers. There was that case in Ireland.
Then there are countries like El Salvador that imprison women for miscarriages. There is something going on down there that goes beyond compassion for the unborn. El Salvador is clearly misogynist. Now I am not calling all pro-lifers misogynist, so settle down if you think I am. Even most pro-lifers—I would think—would oppose El Salvador’s draconian policies toward women.
