Saying that individual women have the right to make
the moral decision regarding abortion is like saying
that individuals have the right to decide if murdering
(babies, children, adults) is morally correct.  One
serious danger arising from the current attitude toward
murder before birth is precisely this:  people (specifically
parents) are already being allowed to decide that
murder is all right after birth as well (I am referring
to the case in Indiana in which a judge ruled that
the parents of a severely deformed infant could let
it starve to death).  We do not have the right to make
our own moral judgements when these judgements take away
the rights of others - that's a major reason for law!
