WoF is the only person here who is talking sense. Why should a growing life be terminated just because the mother/father was lazy with contraception? A fetus can feel and think after only a couple of weeks after conception.

It sucks because in Queensland abortions are covered by Medicare (government health insurance) so basically you can destroy a baby whenever you want for free.
Yes, you can do it whenever you want, up until 22 weeks, when you can't.

And, in case you've missed it, WoF has also stated that, despite his moral opposition, he believes that abortions should be legal.




Also, ArtemisPanthar has said pretty much what I wanted to say, but better than I could have. Everyone I've met (which is not a large number) or seen on tv (many more) who has had an abortion has agonised about it and, in many cases, regretted it. And yet most of them still agree that it should be a legal option for women in their situation.
