12. Should abortion be allowed under extenuating circumstances? If so, what circumstances?
This is such a difficult subject, First of all I feel that the Federal government has no place in this issue at all. I personally know a woman who was raped and chose to allow the baby to have life. I had the honor of teaching her child piano and guitar for several years. She was one of the most talented singer/song writers I have ever met. My life would have been less fulfilled had I not had this experience. This is between the mother and her God. I would strongly pray that every human be given the chance of life. Many don't realize that countless people are waiting and praying for a child to adopt. I am in favor of PR campaigns to make it "cool" to choose life and adoption.
