Anti-abortion IS pro-life.


Even when there is no exception to save the life of the mother?

Many conservatives have agreed to this exception. However, it isn't all
that clear as very few cases are such that the mother's life is
guaranteed to be at risk. The baby's life IS guaranteed to be at risk
in an abortion. So even with this exception, you are still guaranteeing
a death to save the possibility of a death. I'm still not sure that is
a good moral position to aspire to, but at least it is better than most
abortions which are simply murder for the sake of convenience. That
isn't morally acceptable.


Execution in the name of revenge is not morally acceptable either.

I agree, which is why only the government should have such authority,
not the individuals who were wronged. That latter would be revenge, the
former is not.


Deliberately killing a person is murder and is a moral crime.

Sorry, but killing and murder aren't the same. Killing in defense of
one's own life is not murder and is moral.
