I made this topic to get others' thoughts and see if maybe I was wrong

Is that good enough for you or would you like to dive off of another deep end

Then that was your point. You don't have to be coy about that fact.

And I go with the statistically obvious reverse. There is a famous (in the statistics classroom crowd) study in which a marketing team did a survey about products for a major company. Due to the lack in consistency beyond "are in this park at this time of day" the only definitive data was that there was a 99.95% chance that someone pregnant was a woman. By comparison the chance of late term abortion being used for a medical necessity that would cause extreme health problems for the woman are 99.999%. Thus someone having a late term abortion being for health reasons is more likely than a person being pregnant being a woman statistically speaking.

Hence why most people are extremely against the line you imply: there is no rational reason someone can be against the whole "late term abortion" thing, no one is doing it because of flippant reasons. Saying that you are against it is statistically only valid in one very specific meaning, all other aspects are absolutely nonexistent in reality.
