Poor Not Me. Unable to deal with a world in which critical decisions are, indeed, very difficult.

This discussion yet again pushes me more toward the pro-choice, and makes me more wary of investing the state with the decision, even though I find the idea that a three month old fetus would be aborted by someone fully capable of caring for him or her attrocious, and even though I find tragic the idea that some child may be aborted because it is "imperfect" overwhelmingly tragic.

I think you are right that this is a difficult issue and one on which I have never been able to reach a decision. So I just ask questions like why do we, in this case, error on the side of "death*" rather than life, while in all other cases we chose life?
*for lack of a better word.
