Interesting Judgment...

This is very interesting. Basically, a former youth pastor in Texas has been convicted of 2 counts of murder. One of a young girl he had gotten pregnant, the other for the fetus he also killed. This is the first time someone has gotten the death penalty for killing a fetus.

There are alot of things to comment on, and frankly I would agree with the decision.

But one thing I find very interesting, is the line at the end of the article.

According to the Web site of the National Conference of State Legislatures, at least 36 states have homicide laws defining a fetus as a person.

So... In 36 states a fetus is a human. What is different about a fetus who is killed by someone who kills the mother, and a person who gives a woman an abortion? Why is abortion not murder?
