Nevermind that aborting the baby compounds the trauma.
Ignore those stats in making your decision, I mean why start looking at stats now?

The FACT is human life starts at conception. Scientifically proven.

Yes rape may result in pregnancy. That should make us more intolerant of rape, not ruin women's lives further by aborting their kid as a result.

The thing is people seem unable to grasp parallel truths, persisting in seeing black and white like they are newborns not yet comprehending colour.

1. A woman's life is not ruined by having a child.
2. A babies life is ruined by being aborted.

Even given that a woman's life is adversely affected by having a kid, who is affected more? The woman who's life plan is now wildly different, or the baby who doesn't have a life to plan?

We cannot control all events in our lives. Trying to undo the consequential purpose of sex from doing what it's meant to do - create life - is such a collectively egocentric delusion about human control over life that only prevents people from accepting the truth.
