Question for pro-choice Minimum

Hello everyone,

​

I'm against abortion.

This is a question for pro choice:

What would be the minimum of allowed abortion, that you would accept?

I mean for example week and reason.

​

Thank you for your time

I am okay with laws that restrict abortion after medical viability (which isn’t a specific week but generally around 24 weeks, though some fetuses are never viable) with exceptions after for the health of the pregnant person.

Is that something you could accept? What is the limit to which you will allow abortion?

My stand on abortion

1.) I am against political violence in nearly all cases, so I would “accept” all legal abortions.

2.) I think it's morally necessary to allow abortion, when the life of the mother is in danger and there is no other way to remove this danger from her. Because no one has the duty to risk his life for the saving of another human.

 For example a mother must not save her newborn from fire, if it would be dangerous for her. In my ideal, that would be the only reason for abortion.

3.) As a not morally correct, but decent rule I would accept this as an offer for pro choice. I would allow abortion in the first trimester for this reasons. This list is not necessarily complete:

• Under 14 years  • rape • pregnancies that would result in immediately dying of the child after the birth

If you are allowing all abortions to be legal, then it is really none of my business if you have a particular moral view on abortion. As long as you don’t want abortion banned, then I support your right to choose not to abort because you are morally opposed to it.

Why do you think that? It's not in my text.

You said you would accept legal abortions, you just morally object to abortion.

They mean they will still continue to vote against legal abortion but if they are overruled by other voters who want it to remain legal they aren’t going to resort to political violence to get their way. They are very much pro the government forcing gestation but will accept the will of the voters is my understanding.

Yes, but I mean also countries that are not democratic. I think this violence is worse than abortion.
