It’s complicated.
I don’t think abortion is a good thing. I can’t imagine, really, that anyone would. About the best thing I can say about it is that under certain conditions, it may be a lesser evil.
I know there are plenty of Americans who would disagree with that. Who think nothing could be more evil than terminating an unwanted pregnancy. Some of those people are my friends and relatives.
I take back what I said at the beginning of this post. Actually, I can state my opinion in very simple terms:
In a perfect world, there wouldn't be any unwanted pregnancies.
...and we wouldn’t be having this discussion.
