In reply to: Liberal 's message, "Respect full life over potential life" on 17:40:58 05/11/04 Tue

Another issue that Liberal Christians would consider, is the alternative.

It is hypocritical for any Christian to say they care about 'potential lives' (embryo) while paying no respect to the already born lives (pregnant women).

For all the women who died from illegal abortion everyday because they lives in 'bigot' countries that forbid them to have safe legal abortion. What is the right response? Advocate and continue to support safe abortion access seems to be the only compassionate choice.

Some 21 million of the 52 million abortions performed annually occur in countries where abortion is illegal. Clandestine abortions performed under unsafe conditions frequently result in serious complications. Indeed, unsafe abortions are a leading cause of maternal deaths around the world: The World Health Organization estimates that 13% of pregnancy-related deaths worldwide result from abortion complications. To stem the loss of life in countries where abortion is illegal, women need humane and accessible treatment for abortion complications.
