Yes, Some Teenage Women Are Mass Murderers

Pro-lifers are often heard saying that no woman ever sets out [when engaging in sexual relations] to have an abortion. In comparing abortion to embryonic stem cell research, I've said the same thing myself.

But this story from Great Britain pushes that line to the limit.

Using a non-legal [by Canadian standards] definition of murder, and acknowledging the God-given directive, abortion is murder whether the mother is fully informed or not. Of course a person's intent and circumstances play a part, as they do in all murders, but nevertheless whenever an abortion is performed, an innocent human being is violently killed.

If a society permits one individual to murder without consequences, why should it bother to highlight the actions of a mass murderer? Why should it even be newsworthy?

After all, if one abortion is ok, why not six...or even ten?

Unless something is desperately askew?
