Mega,
My stance, for what it's worth is based on MY definition of life and the value of that life. I would not impose MY definition on someone else either by a law or by making judgemental statements.
The law has to step in a some point and that should be set by the collective concience of the community and I believe that should be done by better method than the current political method used by the US.
I also believe that there cannot be an accurate collective concience without open discussions like the one we are having here.
If I were to become pregnant (science has to make some quantum leaps before that is possible) I would use my knowledge and emotions to come to that conclusion at that time.
