Not sure why it is so difficult for so many to acknowledge that abortion is killing. But it seems most to are vehement pro-choice advocates cannot bring themselves to that very basic reality.I don't know anyone who would claim an abortion does not kill anything. I've been getting pre-cancerous patches called actinic keratoses. Since they can become cancerous my doctor freezes them off with liquid nitrogen. My wife had a mole surgically removed that her doctor thought might become cancerous. I have a skin tag on the back of my leg that is bothering me that I'm going to get tied off. I don't worry that I'm killing cells when I have AKs frozen off or my skin tag tied off. These are living human cells but like a zygote they are not a person.
The embryos that we transferred had few cells. They were nothing like a person at this point and their death bothers me no more than the cells my doctor kills with LN2 or a suture. Any of those embryos that survived would joyously be welcomed into our family because they were wanted but I also wouldn't fault someone for aborting them at such an early stage. I love my daughter more than life itself but I don't mourn about the two other embryos our doctor transferred that didn't make it.
