Its a grey area for sure. I'm not an expert, and for me this would likely have to be a case-by-case issue... and honestly I would love to engage in a debate on this but I just dont have time while I am at work...

I apologize. Not trying to "cop out" or anything, but I just can't keep up with a debate on this right now.

The only thing I can quickly comment on is that I have a really tough time with the whole "when does human life begin" thing. I beleive that humans should all have the same rights, and I don't beleive that a fetus is less human or not human one day before he/she is born, or one month, or two months... I just dont know where it starts. So to me, life begins earlier than birth... which again, is a can of worms.

This is a very passionate and interesting debate for me and I'd like to go at it but again... limited time. Sorry.

Edit: I would also like to add that this debate and many others rage on in my head and heart. My morals tell my one thing but my brain tells me something else. I am quite conflicted on the "grey areas" of this issue.
