I've recently encountered pro-forced-birth atheists; same "murder" & "baby" illogic at play. I find it offensive.
But, then, interacted with an atheist man saying that abortion is not an 'atheist issue'. Given that the only commonality shared by atheists is their absence of belief in deities, he proposed there are few 'atheist issues'.
The proactive antagonist role of theists in the debate, and interfering in individual lives (of those contemplating, seeking & having terminations), makes me astounded that any atheist can be anti-choice.
