Murder is a legal definition made by the State. NOT by you. Abortions
are NOT murder.


I suppose in the strictest sense they're not, as the purpose of the
abortion
is just to terminate a pregnancy. But as every effective method of
abortion
tends to result in the death of a human being there's no question that
abortion is murder.

Only the killing of a human being that is illegal is murder (and not all
of those).
Since abortion is not illegal, it cannot be murder.

Well...DUH!!! :~)
