From pro-abortion author Miriam Claire:
“There are many reasons for choosing to have an abortion. Perhaps underlying them all is a deeply maternal, instinctive feeling that the time is not right to give birth and that to do so would be detrimental to all concerned… For some women, and abortion is one of the most profound events they will experience in life.”

Is it “maternal” to kill a baby? Is it not detrimental to the baby to kill him or her?
