Let me try to clarify - I was basically getting at the fact that, at least in theory, there would be nothing
consciously objectionable about being aborted. And I disagree that to be killed just after birth you wouldn't know it - you would experience death with at least some level of consciousness.
Back to your original question, you're basically asking people to compare existence with non-existence. Personally, having had no subjective experience of non-existence, I cannot say which I'd prefer.
