If you're so pro-life, why is it "wrong" to "murder" a human fetus, but other species are habitually and endlessly murdered in utero every day and no one apparently thinks doing the SAME THING to a mother of another species is "wrong."
An action is either wrong or not wrong - who it happens to is irrelevant and nothing but a distraction meant to draw attention away from the underlying concept.
If abortion is wrong for human women, it's wrong to force it on females of other species, too. To do otherwise is blatantly hypocritical and overtly self-serving (i.e., illogical and ethically unsupportable).
It's the same thing with slavery: it's either wrong, or not wrong. It's not wrong some of the time for some of the species on the planet, and who the enslaved happens to be is irrelevant because we are talking about the action, slavery, and not deciding its moral viability based upon who the victim happens to be, we have to decide whether slavery is wrong or not wrong based upon its morality as an action.
Show of hands, Who thinks abortion is immoral or 'Wrong'?

So, what's it going to be?
