This article begins with a false statement: "Abortion is the induced termination of a pregnancy,[1] often causing fetal pain." Actually a medically accurate definition is "an abortion is the untimely expulsion or removal of the unborn baby and associated tissue from the uterus." To be sure abortion is commonly as the article defines it. But many abortions are spontaneous, probably most married women have them.

IMO focusing on "abortion," leads to distortion of the moral reality, which is baby-murder.
