             As an opponent to abortion, I will readily agree as will all those who are against abortion, that pregnancy resulting from a rape or incest is a tragedy. Rape is a detestable crime, but no sane reasoning can place the slightest blame on the unborn child it might produce. Incest is, if that is possible, even worse, but for centuries, traditional Jewish law has clearly stated, that if a father sins against his daughter, that does not justify a second crime- the abortion of the product of that sin. The act of rape or incest is the major emotional physical trauma to the young girl or woman.
