You make a lot of sense, but, one question remains. When is it a child?
Some say the moment the egg is fertilized, others say it is weeks later..

Is abortion killing a child or is it removing some tissue mass? At what
point does it change.

Is it morally better to abort early and not make a baby that will spend
its life suffering a poor life being abused, starved, whatever?

Is masturbation a crime because all those little sperms are killed?

Thanks, Ed. I now have "Every Sperm Is Sacred" playing in my head.
