Isn't there a shortage of children in the West as compared to the amount of people wanting to adopt them? Also, what about orphanages? I'd rather live in an orphanage and have some kind of life than never live at all.

It isn't about the woman. It's about the child.

(this include, "not having the means to raise a child"
That's valid? Abortion as birth control all the way then!

Really, if you have sex and don't have the means to raise a child, there are still more options for you. You can give it to a relative to raise, give it up for adoption, or maybe own up to your own selfish actions and raise it yourself.

"not wanting to raise a genetically deficient baby"
Don't raise it. Adoption. Use it.

Really, don't want to raise a "genetically deficient baby"? Have you ever met a person with special needs? Most of them actually enjoy living, you know.

As long as they don't, then I don't care about christian morals.
The pro-life group is not made up entirely of Christians, you know. And when it is, many of those Christians are not pro-life because of their religion. My Catholicism would only effect me not getting an abortion if I was a woman who was pregnant. My secular reasons for being pro-life are the reasons why I believe that there are many circumstances in which abortion should be illegal.
