Default Re: Abortion

[ QUOTE ]
If you believe God injects a soul, he hasn't done it yet [by the morning after conception]. So terminating the pregnancy at this point is different than terminating it later.

If we don't believe that God injects a soul, then how different is a morning-after-conception abortion from a two-month-after-conception abortion?

Without the soul stuff, I think probably the most important point about the fetus is whether it's cognizant. A two-month-old fetus may be more cognizant than a one-day-old embryo. But is it cognizant enough to make the abortion of a two-month-old fetus much different from using a condom?
