EDIT: Well, reading about your home-country... don't you agree that the problem lies more in its society than in the general concept of abortion then? Honestly, I think what you are describing is far away from the happenings in almost any other european and/or american country (so not to use the term "western world"), in a sense that it is much more extrem. But the point is: It's not abortion that's to blame for it, and prohibiting it would in no way reduce the mess, but make it even bigger.

I admit the situation here is probably very specific. Communist regime abolished most of the christian influence, but it at first tried to impose it's own moral standards and faild which resulted in severely decresed socail morality. Don't know about other countries that were in a similar situation (that would mostly be other countries of the former Yugoslavia, but their situation would probably be different due to the fact that they had several year of war in between - forcing them to rething certain positions on life).

Adn YES, I deffinetly agree, that what I'm talking about has nothing more to do with the issue of abortion. It's just one of the unsolved problems of the society I live in.

I guess the first idea I had about this topic (Seb you said all you wanted to say - don't get involved in it anymore) was far better then this - sorry for straying so far off topic.

Trying ot be fully objective now - the arguments I've heard here so far had this effect on me (for the world wide law - if such a thing could exist - on abortion): I'm 35% for and 65% agianst it. Saying I can't really make up my mind, but I lean more towards NOT legalising abortion (and I guess this really is my final post in this thread - and sorry again for going completely off topic).
