As with my blog the other day, I questioned when does human life begin.
This one, brings to light the legality of abortion. In the UK, it is allowed, but in the US it is a highly more regarded social issue.
1973 Roe v Wade made abortions legal, and a case following Doe v Bolton means that abortions must taken in for physical, emotional and pyschological reasons.
Obama though, in the run up to the US election, says 'Mental Distress can't justify late abortions.'
As Time shows, this is a hot Catholic issue.
Personally, I think it Obama has it right, though the baby's health and wellbeing should be taken into account.
Don't they have rights too? They are, after I argued in my last blog, human as well.
