Very good...let's begin with a commitment to facts and opinions that are based on them...to wit,

wrt Pope Francis' comments on Abortion...I quoted his statement that the 'Personhood' of a fetus was a topic of debate within the RCC, and that the Magisterium has never explicitly stated that Personhood begins at conception. I also posted his entire message that stated Abortion was a sin...which I agree with...so, please don't put words in my mouth...let's stick to facts in evidence.

Additionally, I have repeatedly stated that I seek the Reduction in Abortions through efforts to avoid Unwanted Pregnancies...e.g. a) ensure that contraceptives are available everywhere along with how/why information...b) funding for Sex/Sexuality Education for All Ages...and c) funding for programs that make it tenable for women with unwanted pregnancies to carry them to term.

With that said, let me ask you a question...Do you believe that a totally innocent woman who is forced or coerced into a pregnancy that she never sought or wanted should be forced by governmental power to accept the Physical, Mental, Emotional and Economic Consequences and carry such a pregnancy to term?
