    That is not inconsistent with what I have proposed all along. At that point abortion actually becomes a medical procedure.

    States prohibiting women from obtaining any abortions would be interfering with women's rights. Prohibiting late term abortions except for instances of fetal abnormality or mother's health recognizes that the fetus is nearer "personhood", and the woman has been given a choice. If she doesn't make that choice in a timely fashion, she no longer gets a choice. That is the reasoning, but it's entirely unnecessary as women DON'T make that choice voluntarily in late pregnancy.

    ALL abortions are medical procedures.

    That would be incorrect! Medical procedures are to preserve or save a lie, not to snuff one out!

    There is no "reasoning" in that at all!

    So "nearer" to "personhood is all that is needed? This is further proof that "personhood" is nonsense. A human being is a person.

    Preserving life, maintaining health, etc....

    Obviously a procedure designed solely to kill a human being does none of these things. :roll:

    Abortion often preserves life and maintains a woman's health. Pregnancy/childbirth, OTOH, sometimes takes a woman's life or destroys her health.

    This is a lie, the percentages bring it nowhere NEAR "Often".

    You said...

    And then you disagree when I list a few medical procedures by changing your original statement:

    So, is abortion ever a medical procedure or not?
