Interesting think I just thinked.
Say, for argument's sake, that you are eta clarity: ORIGINALLY personally against abortion with regards to your current pregnancy, and you find out very early in the pregnancy that there is something fatally wrong with the fetus that will 100% without a doubt (I know there are some people who believe there is always the chance of a miracle, but for arguments sake, it is 100%) end in miscarriage or stillbirth some time during the second or third trimester. Do you opt for an early abortion at the point at which the baby has a less developed system and it is arguably the gentler option for both of you or do you let nature take it's course and roll with what you get?
Man, I've got to be bored if I'm bringing up abortion questions on booj...
Edit to add: If you elect to let nature run it's course, it would be interesting to know why.
Edited to clarify: Most people seemed to understand the spirit of what I was asking, but to clarify, I was trying to specify that you're against abortion personally, and you did not otherwise have plans to abort this pregnancy, but you are not necessarily politically or legally against abortion.
