The Natural Laws
That Govern Abortion
R.C. Crawford
November 24, 2011
There are several natural laws that impact how society
should view legal abortion. Those laws are:
The Law of New Life
The Law of Life
The Law of Conception
The Law of Charity
The Law of Preclusion
The Law of Consent
1) The Law of New Life: All new life begins
with old DNA.
2) The Law of Life: It is
impossible at conception to tell if a human life will survive through
birth.
3) The Law of Conception: Most conceptions
end in abortion.
4) The Law of Charity: There are more
people dying than can be saved.
5) The Law of Preclusion: In the first nine
months of a pregnancy a forced pregnancy precludes another pregnancy.
6) The Law of Consent: Any consent to a
sexual act by a woman that could lead to pregnancy is implied consent
to abortion.

End of laws and beginning of theory ***
The
scientific laws I list above, that impact abortion, also support
theories that may control the morality of abortion. There is a
difference in a theory and a law. Please see the definitions of what
comprises a law that follow these theories.
Laws
simply state the facts; theories are based on the facts. I will give a
brief explanation of a few theories that are supported by the laws
outlined above:
The
Law
of New Life:
All new life starts with old DNA.
Old
DNA and new DNA can be altered by natural processes and outside
forces. All
new DNA is created by old DNA. The process of conception is
controlled by the old DNA that creates the new DNA. The new life is
mitigated by the old DNA. The information needed to build new DNA is
contained in the old DNA. The new Life can only contain the
possibilities that are provided with the old DNA’s data as modified by
natural processes and outside forces.
The
Law of Life:
It is impossible at conception to tell if a human life
will survive through birth.
It
is impossible to know if a fetus will live until the DNA of life has
run its entire
code. For example if a programmer writes a code and runs the
code, he cannot know if there is an error in the code until it has run
in its entirety. Therefore one cannot know if a zygote will in fact be
a baby until it is born. If one treats a zygote as a baby and gives it
the rights of a human, the best they can possibly hope for is that
they will be right somewhere between 30 percent and 99.5 percent of
the time that it will be born.
The
Law
of Conception:
Most conceptions end in abortion.
The
fact is that abortion is a natural and expected consequence of sex. It
therefore cannot be true that there is "life at conception". In fact
it is usually death at conception. Any attempt to enforce "life at
conception" will therefore waste resources that could be used to save
life.
The
Law
of Charity: There
are
more people dying than can be saved.
Simply
put there are as many as 57
million people that die each year. There are not enough
resources in the right places on earth to save everyone. Every choice
to save one life simply allows another to die. Pro lifers simply
choose to save fetuses and let children die. There is no "net" gain in
life saved due to the fact that these laws limit when life can
actually be saved. The greatest error of pro lifers is that by
attempting to save a fetus, they are causing the death of more people
than one would expect. For example if a person uses their charity to
save a born child then the odds are, the child will live. But if they
attempt to save a fetus the odds of saving the fetus at conception is
only 30 percent and at birth only 99.5 percent. Most of the time, pro
lifers waste resources that could be used to save life.
The
Law of Preclusion:
In the first nine months of a pregnancy a forced pregnancy
precludes another pregnancy.
For
example if a woman is forced to give birth to one child then for a
period of nine months she cannot intentionally
become pregnant with another child. As a single example, if a woman is
raped a few days before her wedding and becomes pregnant, then for
nine months she cannot become pregnant with her husband’s child. If
her intent was to have her husband's child after marriage then that
becomes impossible. If she aborts the
child of the rapist and immediately becomes pregnant by her husband,
then there is no loss of life. If she keeps the rapist's fetus there
is no gain in life because she is denying life to her husband's child.
Now if the woman and husband can only afford one child, then they are
stuck their entire life with the child of the rapist and denied the
child of the husband. No life is saved by saving the rapist's fetus
and in fact the life of the wanted child is lost.
The
Law of Consent:
Any consent to a sexual act by a woman that could lead to
pregnancy is implied consent to abortion.
It
is generally accepted that as
many as 50 to 75 percent of conceptions end in natural abortion.
If a person intentionally has sex they are intentionally consenting to
abort as many as 75
percent of their conceptions. A person can't have sex without
actual implied consent to abortion.

***Discussions about what is and is not a law***
“The
rules of biology and science cannot be broken.
They
are not artificial human-made laws. They are
natural
laws that govern all life while living organisms
are
evolving on our planet.

===========
Finding
fundamental organizing principles is the current intellectual front
end of systems biology.
From
a hydrogen atom to the whole cell level, organisms manage massively
parallel and massively
interactive
processes over several orders of magnitude of size. To manage this
scale of informational
complexity
it is natural to expect organizing principles that determine higher
order behavior.

The
first misconception about laws is that they must
be
exception less. But this is far too strong; if we require
laws
to be exception less, there are no, or very few, laws
–
even in physics. Galileo’s law that all
massive bodies
fall
with constant acceleration irrespective of their mass
has
many exceptions: snowflakes fall quite differently
from
hailstones and with radically different accelerations.
