The Left would have you believe otherwise. Great link.
"Therefore, there is a living human being. I do not say a person, because this is debated, but a living human being."
Let's discuss this some more later...(Niners game coming up)

what do you say to women who have had their lives brutally turned upside down, dreams stolen and freedom destroyed?...all because some out of control male decided to have his way with her...is this your vision of God's Justice?
what do you say about the totally, 100% innocent children who have had their bodies cut apart brutally, dreams stolen and freedom destroyed...outright killed...is this your vision of God's Justice?
is debated...". I'll add some links in a bit that go into much more philosophical, legal and theological detail...but in the meantime, think about this...
Does the RCC do anything when a woman has a miscarriage?...What "Rite" is brought forward to recognized the lost 'person'?...there is none...never has been. There is no Baptism, or record made in the Parish register. The best that can be hoped for is a skillful priest who can console the woman and couple.
You can't have it both ways...no history of the Church recognizing the fetus as a person when it's a miscarriage, but demanding such recognition all of a sudden when it's an abortion...especially when that abortion is chosen to avoid the burden of a pregnancy from what is no more than a violent assault that initiates the biological process of reproduction...that is by no means a "Gift from God".
The innocent woman deserves to have the totally un-wanted non-person removed from her...otherwise all of her humanity is completely discarded...no concern for what makes a person "Human"...free will...freedom to pursue her own path in life, etc....as I've said before on this topic...forcing a woman against her will to carry an unwanted pregnancy to term, reduces her to no more than the status of a "Brood Mare"...The true "Person" here is the WOMAN...and her Human Rights need to be respected.
I suspect we both have kids...in each case, the children were definitely "Wanted" and welcomed. I wrote a letter to our first born that night...I was so overwhelmed with what my wife and I had experienced...so don't think for a moment that I treat abortion as some kind of 'nothingburger'. This is a gut wrenching issue, and a complex one that is still being 'debated'...but over the course of time, I see the practical wisdom of Jewish faith on this...we don't really have a "Person" until they're born.
The Church works to help women with crisis pregnancies. I work to help them, too. And yet you insist on disbelieving me. Well, I guess I will have to disbelieve you. You are very willing to kill hundreds of thousands of babies per year. Indeed, you work to make sure that it happens.
Why don't you join me in making a contribution to a home for women with crisis pregnancies, rather than try to convince women to kill their children?
to step up and face this.
No concern at all for the living human beings, the children you deprive of personhood to allow yourself to sleep better when you kill them...millions of them over a few years.
You are on the wrong side of history here.

What percentage of aborted babies are aborted as a result of rape?
If you include health of the mother and fetal health complications the number is around 8%.
The reasons given for the other 92% essentially are I don't want to have a kid right now.
Tyrone trying to act like this is the only reason women have an abortion is not the reality.

the majority of abortions are done for convenience (a baby would get in the way of a career or avoid social embarrassment, or financial comfort, etc). But of course, nobody wants that to be listed or said to be the reason for the abortion. Also, many women seeking abortion would rather give this reason rather than the real one (Roe herself is a example of this as she claimed rape & recanted many years later)
Thus, studies on this become very difficult since the data entry accuracy becomes especially unreliable as to the indication. Remember, the data also relies on the abortionist. The benefits to the pro abortion argument of citing high medical necessity indications is also obvious. And of course, the abortion providers also often feel that they are doing the woman a service by providing her cover against discovery.
Full knowledge and deliberate consent could be impaired. Especially if the victim has serious
psych issues caused by the rape.

Defining away personhood is the best way to justify killing a living human being. It worked for the Nazis...for awhile. It worked for the Eugenics movement in the United States...for awhile. Now, people who support abortion are trying to use it, since they lost the scientific argument that there is no living human being. You know that. Since you want to justify killing living human beings, I will expect you to make the old arguments...legal sophistry to justify killing living human beings.
Abortion is just ugly from every angle. In its later stages it is infanticide.
