“In my opinion, which is bound to offend some,” he said, according to the video, “If a baby can survive outside the womb, it cannot be aborted. If a baby can survive outside the womb, it is not abortion, it is murder.”

He added, “Part of the challenge is that the education system has terrified girls and women and relentlessly pushed the idea that getting pregnant is the end of your life. When you instill terror in young girls that getting pregnant is the worst thing that can happen, they’ll believe that if they’re just kids.” He has made this type of statement before.

Musk: ‘It is not abortion, it is murder’

Musk’s statement cuts against the grain of much of the mainstream media narrative and what is considered acceptable discourse on abortion. He’s right, yet doesn’t go far enough; induced abortion is always the direct killing of an innocent human being – and isn’t medically necessary.

So the essential argument being made here appears to be that no one should have the right to refuse to participate in abortion — not even under the defense of religious freedom, religious exemption, or of conscience rights. Would this mean that in a Harris administration, religious groups will be forced to pay for the killing of preborn children through their insurance plans, for example, despite their clear opposition to it? Would this mean a doctor who refuses to participate in committing abortions (exercising his or her own ‘bodily autonomy’ in choosing not to take life) would be banned from practicing under the Harris administration?
