So what's the big deal about killing an unborn baby anyway?  There's no
shortage.  The world could do with a good deal fewer new babies.  If you
abort a 6 month old fetus, what the heck, it only takes six months and a
modest amount of effort to replace one.  We only think babies are precious
because we are programmed by evolution to want to care for our little ones.
It's part of survival of the species.  But the species is in no danger of
dieing out and that particular evolutionary impulse is not 100% appropriate
in a world where overpopulation is a bigger issue.  Killing a baby is more
of  a crime against the parents, than it is a crime against the fetus.  The
fetus is hardly a thinking being at all.  A gerbil has more awareness.  If
the parents have all sorts of hopes and aspirations for the fetus, and an
emotional attachment to it, then nobody should have the right to deprive
them of their baby.  It's a pursuit of happiness thing - lots of people
find children vital to their happiness, so they have a right to have them.
But if the parents don't want it, then it has no value to anyone, and
aborting it is the best outcome all around.
