I don't think that the plan B pill is the same as aborting at all, it prevents the egg from implanting at all, and if it doesn't implant, even if you haven't taken the plan B pill, then you aren't pregnant. If a fertilised egg failed to implant, which actually happens a fair amount or so I learned from my partners Biology degree, then you would never have been pregnant in order for it to count as aborting.

Also, I don't really think that it is killing the fertilised egg either, because in order for it to live and grow and turn into a fetus, it has to implant, if it doesn't then it can't develop past the stage where the stem cells begin to differentiate if I remember correctly and as such remains a group of such cells.


Same argument could be used for an IUD then. Okay, that makes a lot more sense.

3nodding I think it's yet another of those grey areas where some people will always think it is wrong and state their reasons, but there are people who think that condoms are wrong, and the pill and all sorts of things, it doesn't make those people right, with this, as with almost everything in life, there isn't an answer sheet at the back of the book to look at, so everyone has to decide their morals for themselves If they want integrity, and isn't it supposed to be immoral not to have integrity? xd
