Everyone hates abortion. It is a last resort for a woman who does not want to give birth to a child. The people who claim to be pro-life, at least where I live, want to stop sexual education in schools and limit the availability of birth control. This results in more abortions.

There is nothing in the world that could shake my belief that abortion is not morally wrong, and I support any woman's right to choose. At the same time I think abortion is terrible and should be avoided except as a last resort. These beliefs are not incompatible.

People on the right attempt to poison the discussion by painting those who choose abortion as people who use it as birth control. Like they have abortions for the fun of it. They lie about the existence of partial birth abortions. They lie that the matter removed in an abortion is a thinking, feeling human life. My wife has had an abortion as has my best friend's wife. These were horrible, expensive, emotional experiences. They should be avoided at all cost, yet they are still morally correct.
