It's not a child. It's an embryo or at most, a fetus: not a soul that's
going to go to heaven and live with Jesus or angels if it's aborted. It's a bunch of cells with the *potential* to be a human, that's it. Your smegma also has the potential to be be human: should we "defend" that potential life by passing/enforcing laws that prevent your blowing your load unless it is to make another (presumably God-fearing) human?
I think we collectively make humans at a fast enough rate already, we don't need superstition-based laws insuring we make more unwanted/loved ones.
An aborted embryo or fetus makes the uterus available for the creation of another, more planned/wanted/loved child. What's more important:
1. an unwanted embryo/fetus
2. a wanted child?
The wanted child is less likely to steal your car, rape your wife or shoot up your schools. Let's have more of those children and fewer of the kind you want to "defend" through laws.
