I don't believe in abortion unless there is a medical reason for it. In my opinion an embryo is a potential person, and as for the argument that they are unconcious and too undeveloped to be subject to the same ethics we are, consider this. When you're a newborn your quite ignorant of life aswell, but that's not the point; you have a life. And Human life is so full of potential. So from where i'm standing you shouldn't just be considered human weeks before you emerge purple, naked and screaming, potential begins far, far before then.
We are, in so many ways a careless society. We shouldn't encorage this attitude to be taken towards our future aswell.
