No, I am not done with the Libertarian FAQ yet. Listen up:

Most libertarians are strongly in favor of abortion rights (the Libertarian Party often shows up at pro-rights rallies with banners that say "We're Pro-Choice on Everything!"). Many libertarians are personally opposed to abortion, but reject governmental meddling in a decision that should be private between a woman and her physician.

Surely there are many pro-abortion libertarians, but we mustn't discount the pro-life camp among us neither - like Libertarians for Life. The truth is, though, that abortion is not in fact a political issue, but a moral one, and a very grave one, too.

If you belive life inside the womb is worthless, if you feel fine about terminating it, you've made your choice. I disagree and that's that. But to claim it's libertarian to be pro-abortion is something I refuse completely. This is beyond politics, and surely touches the primal ethical questions no political movement can possibly answer.

I'll never forget Philip K. Dick's short story "Pre-Persons". I've yet to find more truthful summary of the subject.

"I know I'm no different, he thought , than two years ago when I was just a little kid; if I have a soul now like the law says, then I had a soul then, or else we have no souls - the only real thing is just a horrible metallic-painted truck with wire over its windows carrying off kids their parents no longer want, parents using an extension of the old abortion law that let them kill an unwanted child before it came out: because it had no 'soul' or 'identity', it could be sucked out by a vacuum system in less than two minutes. A doctor could do a hundred a day, and it was legal because the unborn child wasn't 'human'. He was a pre-person. Just like this truck now; they merely set the date forward as to when the soul entered."
