If the last space on a lifeboat can be given to either a 97 year old granny or a 17 year old high school girl, then all other things being equal 99.999% of the population would acknowledge the last seat goes to the 17-year-old. Similarly, any baby in or out of the womb is "more valuable" than the mother (or father) because the baby has more years of life available. For that reason, if some sort of surgical intervention is required and the honest choice is having to sacrifice exclusively either the mother or the child, the lesser evil is to sacrifice the mother in the interests of the greater number of years available to the child's lifetime. The only exception to the foregoing would be if the baby had some serious developmental defect that condemned the baby to a shorter lifetime than the mother.

As to rape and incest, the pro-abortion argument is selfish and clearly false. We all have one mother, two grandmothers, four great-grandmothers, and 1,024 great-9x-grandmothers. At a rape rate of 1% (and crime statistics indicate the rape rate is much higher), we all have on average at least 10 female ancestors resulting from rape a few generations ago, plus more ancestors born earlier and perhaps more ancestors more recently. Adding in male children, the number of rape-resultants in anyone's ancestry is double. If it were legitimate to kill the baby for his or her mother being raped, the extermination of the corresponding ancestors would have made sure that practically everyone would never have had a mother and/or a father born, and therefore practically everyone would have had zero chance to be born. When pro-abortionists chant devotion to their idol of killing babies to make the innocents pay for rapes they didn't commit, they are denying the validity of their own existence and therefore their own line of argumentation. Of course, like abortion hypocrites always do, they wouldn't follow their own advice and vivisect and dismember themselves simply because they resulted from a mother or grandmother or great-grandmother being raped. Their whole argument is one of selfish convenience, as with any mafia-style system of using crude pretexts so as to conceal the truth with elaborate lies. Even more hypocritically, Live Action's videos clearly prove Planned Parenthood doesn't care about rape at all, and they actively and elaborately cover up rapes that are reported to them. So the "abort for rape" lie falls apart at all of its twists and turn. And "rape resultants" like Rebecca Kiessling are happy to testify, along with their mothers, that after being raped the right decision was proven to be KEEP THE BABY to make mother happy she did the right thing.

Whether rape is involved or not, we all have El Derecho de Nacer (The Right to Be Born). This was the title of a Mexican movie made in 1952, set in Cuba, and it is available on Netflix with English subtitles.
