    The fundamental core issue is: do we count the foetus as a life? If so, there’s no such thing as a “safe abortion”

      We do not, simple as, because it’s not

      That wouldn’t magically change the death rate, though, which was my point, don’t change the subject. If you’re not smart enough to understand basic math I’m not sure we should even pretend to respect your opinions on things more complicated than that, like basic science

        Science points to a foetus being a life- whether or not we value that life is a philosophical, moral and ethical issue. Biological, Physical and Chemical science isn’t the answer to everything.

          Science points to a foetus being a life

          No, science absolutely does not point to a fetus being “a life”

          Biological, Physical and Chemical science isn’t the answer to everything.

          True, but when you clearly don’t understand them at all (as you proved with your laughable statement in that very comment) then you also don’t have the answer, as they’re relevant to the discussion
