Potentiality and Abortion

There is many an illegal thing one can do that is considered potential for a crime – the potentiality being the only factor making it illegal. No doubt, things such as ‘wreckless endangerment’ should be illegal. It’s only reasonable.

Children who obviously have a greater potential for things like athletisism, or intelligence – are treated differently.

In our society, potential is treated as something to take into consideration – quite reasonably most of the time. A potential crime is treated like a crime, and a potential athlete is treated like an athlete. Does one need religion to realize that abortion makes little notice of the fact that it disregards potential life?

Crime, success, financial investment, and a myriad of other potential things are treated with high value. – Yet, there are many in our society who see the potential for life as nothing more than an unimportant factor. Why should human life be treated as something worthless in comparison with so many lesser things?

So many times has religion been blamed for issues, and conflicts, that would thrive just as much without it.
