Abortion and Rape or Incest

This is one of the more emotionally difficult questions. Why should we not allow for abortions in cases of rape or incest. There are a couple reasons why from the health of the baby, the woman and society. The first answer is because the Embryo is still a baby. Science proves this not Only with the sonogram, but also in genetics. If it is a baby, we would be giving the baby a death sentence for something it did not do. If this would be OK to abort a child, that would be to the detriment to society as well. Why? Because of the reason for the abortion. The woman is raped and so is in anguish. The emotion of the event is linked to the child. Therefore, the child becomes a source of great anguish to the woman. So it is the anguish that should give the woman the "right" to take the life of a child. If this is true, then it should be equally a "right" for one person to murder another because it just causes too much anguish for him/her. Lastly, it is detrimental to the woman as well. She typically does not see how anything good could come from the pregnancy. Some may even think the child is evil because he/she was conceived in evil. She has no hope, so she gets the abortion. But once the abortion happens, she realizes something is not right. The cloud is lifted and are many times horrified at what happened. However, since the rape justifies the abortion, she has to hold on to the evil of rape in order to stuff the guilt of the abortion down. This makes the pain of the rape more acute. So now, the problem is worse than what she started with. It goes against her dignity. Actually, I have found that when women choose to allow the baby to live, she can start to see how something good could come from something so evil. The child becomes a gift to bring healing for her. But ultimately,she needs real psychological and spiritual counseling; not just a cold "get over it". It's about time the professional fields stop violating these women for their money just because they violated sexually.
