Why?
1. It certainly is an argument against abortion BECAUSE there are so many alternatives.

2. I've NEVER met a woman who had an abortion and didn't regret it.

3. The argument was not that fetus=baby. The argument is that abortion cheapens life. You disagree because you do not value life in the same way I do. The two college kids who killed their newborn (Delaware?) are a case in point. They got off almost scot-free.

4. In order to effectively argue against "What if it's wrong? What if conception is the magic moment?", you would need to prove that there is no God. There are many atheists against abortion, several of them are on this board. They have effectively argued against abortion on the abortion forum. Your disbelief in God is not evidence that there is none. Even the atheists I know concede that they could be wrong. What if they are?
