Look, you think abortion is immoral. I don't. Abortion doesn't equal slavery in any universe! Abortion represents freedom.
One difference that comes to mind immediately and therefore makes your
comparison invalid: in the natural death of a young child, both parents
would have a legal right to make all decisions.
Never said abortion equaled slavery. Abortion equals murder, but is not called murder because it's a legally protected form of murder.

did you just link a random blog as your proof?
Yeah, that's right. I posted a woman's testimonial. You have a problem with her testimony? You're quick to accept disgruntled employees with agendas uncorroborated testimony.
You don't believe situations like that happen? Would you deny that woman an abortion? Would you prefer she waited until the distressed fetus caused her to go into septic shock?
nobody is denying a woman anything anywhere

Murder is the willful killing of a person. A fertilized egg isn't a person. An embryo isn't a person, and neither is a fetus.

That's absolutely untrue! There are plenty of people, in this thread alone, who would like to ban abortion and close/defund all 700 PP clinics across the nation.
You should answer for yourself and try not to speak for other posters.

Oh for Christ's sake! The same people that decide the fate of a fetus' corpse are the same people that decide the fate of a toddlers corpse.

A corporation can be a "person". Abortion kills a human being.

Actually, love has everything to do with it. From where I stand, it takes an amazingly selfless act to offer the remains of your loved child so that others might live, might see, or might not have spend their lives hooked to machines. Conversely, abortion IN THE MAJORITY OF CASES is a purely selfish act decided upon based on the wants of "mom" superceding any of the potential of the baby developing in her womb.

A toddlers cadaver is also allowed to be sold.
