Why? Neither of those is a human being.

From a legal standpoint, murder of a human is wrong, so why should abortion be legal?

A fetus isn't a person.

The child may not be fully developed, but it's still a human. The fact that the child is "unwanted" is a very poor reason to kill it.

I ask again: What trait(s) do you think it takes to have a human?
If I gave you, say, a cow, what would you have to change about it to make it deserving of human rights?
I should note that I, myself, would be against anyone I know having an abortion. At the same time, I strongly believe that it is their choice if they want to have one or not.

It's not an "underdeveloped nervous system", it's no brain at all.
None.
The child is incapable of thinking.
It cannot feel pain.
It cannot feel wonder.
It cannot hear.
It cannot taste.
It cannot see.
It cannot love.
Is it still human?
