Does abortion lead to a greater good?

If not, why does God allow abortion?

Possibly for the same reason that he allows you to keep spouting the same non-sense and/or drivel, even after your error has been patiently (and repeatedly) explained to you.

I think attempts to remove the right to live from fetuses are of questionable worth.

But whence comes this right? And whence the standard by which the judgment of worthiness is made? And just what is that standard?

And what is it that makes VR's question ["But does it defend too much, such as infanticide?"] even meaningful?

VR's question assumes that infanticide is "too far." But, what does that mean?
