You brought up great points, and I believe you 100%. That's why I, among many others, have such a problem with abortion. Yeah, the baby isn't "born" yet, at least not by worldly standards, but that embryo/baby has already been created by God. I guess people who is pro-abortion don't realize that they're taking away a life, one that has a right to live just as mush as that mother has. It's just crazy to me. My girlfriend wrote an essay about abortion, and it would make anyone cry, it's a great piece, I'll have to post it on here one day. Anyways, that's my views, not complete, but good enough for now. Goodnight!
