Dear TheArtFrog, may the Grace of Jesus Christ find us all!



I keep my positions and you would have seen them, if you had watched the video links I sent before. There are many positions in the links that are not about religion or churches. They are doctors, Medical Doctors, talking about the abortions they did and, today, they stand against abortion.

I believe we are both trying to defend correct points, but our vocabulary is in the way. When you write abortion, I understand: a medical procedure used to end a pregnancy and cause the death of the fetus. I also consider the intention of the procedure to be the death and removal of the baby, fetus.



Treatments for Ectopic Fetus or Ectopic Pregnancy and Abortion are different.



"Ectopic pregnancy" is when the egg is impeded in it's progress to the uterus and instead implants somewhere along the way. This is called an ectopic pregnancy. “Ectopic” means “out of place.” Ectopic pregnancies are often called “tubal” pregnancies because over 95 percent occur in the fallopian tubes. (fertilized eggs can also implant in the abdomen, ovaries, or within the cervix).

There are treatments for this case and the treatments, even if they have the indirect result of death of the unborn child, are NOT CONSIDERED ABORTIONS.

This happens because of the intention of the treatment. The intention of offering a treatment to a mother is to help her health. The intention of having an abortion is killing a baby. The intention matters.

The treatment for Ectopic Fetus or Ectopic Pregnancy, even if it has the UNINTENDED EFFECT of causing the death of the baby, is not considered an abortion. It is not considered "a medical procedure used to end a pregnancy and cause the death of the fetus", a medical procedure with the intention of killing a baby inside the womb. It is considered a medical procedure to cure a proportionately serious pathological condition in the body of the mother, that is it's primary objective, instead of it's direct purpose being terminating the pregnancy.



There are many positions even outside religion or The Church that oppose abortion. Medical Doctors oppose abortions, Health Workers oppose abortions, Psychology Workers oppose abortion and, in some families, even the Family Members oppose abortions.



Thank you for your comment and I hope I have been able to clarify that there are differences between Ectopic Fetus or Ectopic Pregnancies and Abortion and mention that not all voices against abortion are based in religion.



May the Light of Jesus Christ Illuminate our lives and minds.
