Refuting Another Argument

"The actions of individuals are the most important indicators of their beliefs."
While I agree that actions can be important, to draw the paralel that this makes it "perfectly normal and morally accepted" to have an abortion is one of the most reduculus argument that I've heard. Its like when you were a child and your mother says no to having a toy and you say "but everyone else has one!"
Hitler was elected leader by an overwhelming majority twice, while most knew of his plans for war and his thoughts on Jews, gays, gypsies etc were well known. (Mein Kampf was published in 1925 and talks about his need for "livingspace".) By your logic this makes it "perfectally normal and morally accepted," a wholly falicious argument.
There are valid reasons on both sides of the abortion argument, but this is not one of them.

I agree that just because most people do something doesn't make it acceptable, the point of this blog is to provide people with the words to combat common illogical arguments against abortion. The post Todd VE was refering to was titled "It Is Against Societies Morals", that is not the sort of logic that I agree with but it is often used by anti-abortionists. Using the logic of the anti-abortionist puts their own fallacies on display. Todd VE then says "But I think the argument was stating that its high frequency had some sort of moral implications, which is what I was invalidating." No, that was not what it was stating, just because most people believe something doesn't make it true, that was my point. Just because you might think that abortion is wrong, doesn't give you the right to control what others do with their bodies.
