I never said you didn't know anything about abortion. However since the definition of murder is: the crime of unlawfully killing a person especially with malice aforethought. Abortion is not a crime, and it is not even the killing of a person, I do not put a person on the same level a a embryo, and neither does the law, and before you start telling me about how a person can be convicted of double homicide for killing a pregnant woman, please look up the laws because they pretty much all only cover that once the fetus is to a point beyond the age abortions are allowed. Because of all of this abortion does not equal murder. Your argument would be much stronger if you said LIKE murder.
Also in response to your other post, you said that sex should only happen between married people who are ready for a baby, I really think you need to think about and then amend that statement. Because you are condeming anyone who does not wish to have children to celebacy, not to mention infertile people, or people too old to have children. Not to mention people who don't believe in marriage, and while they may be in a long committed relationship never want to get married. Also VERY few married couples plan their children. Very few people say, okay now I'm ready to have kids. You just get married and then it happens, and often the couple is very happy and has their child but that doesn't mean they thought they were ready to have children. And what does that even mean? Some 15 year old girls think they are ready to have a baby that doesn't mean they are.
