| Message | Why oppose?...we would also like more than "this is a horrible infringement upon the rights of mothers." This would prevent murder. Killing an innocent child is murder. |

| Message | What murder? Something needs to be defined as alive before it can be murdered and as there is no evidence of mental operation from a zygote it cannot be defined as alive, hence no murder. |

| Message | Killing innocen children abortion is not. Fetuses are not human until they are capable of living outside the mother. |

| Random fact: In Culturally Protected nations, special care must be taken to ensure realism is maintained when role-playing a government controlled by an ethnic and/or religious minority. If it is to be supposed that this government is supported by a majority of the population, then this should be plausibly and sufficiently role-played. The burden of proof is on the player or players role-playing such a regime to demonstrate that it is being done realistically |
