I never said women who have had an abortion are murderers. I did not see your response but did you say that I am vicious and advocate rape and incest victims bring the child in their womb to term? As a Catholic aware of my sinfulness, I do not advocate destroying the child that has been conceived. Should a woman in such a situation turn to God and people who will support her during the pregnancy and afterwards (whether she keep the child or puts the child up for adoption), she will be blessed and rewarded by God either in this life or in eternity. Of this I have no doubt - not for even a second. God gives us all free will - the decision is ours. How we respond will depend on our relationship with God - how much we trust Him to get us through even the most difficult situations in life. This includes women diagnosed with a threatening disease during their pregnancies. Doctors are to do all they can to save both lives. Should the baby die during surgery to save the mom, it is not abortion
