If a guy considers abortion to be 'murder', and he knows to sex with a pro-abortion woman. Is he an accomplice
I had to truncate my question to make it fit. But sidestepping the religious aspects, -say he truly understands that the abortion is 'murder' in a moral / /human sense, yet casual sex appears not to be. He copulates knowing that she'd have an abortion if indeed she was pregnant. Is the accesory to murder before the fact, negligent homicide, or what? If she DID NOT become pregnant, did he attempt "reckless endagerment" of a possible human??

He shouldn't be having premarital sexual relations with any girl. Furthermore, he is going into a situation that he already knows the outcome of.....So I would say that he is.

No, for a few reasons.
First, if he has sex with her, and she doesn't get pregnant, then neither one of them will be involved in an abortion.
Second, if he has sex with her and she gets pregnant, it's possible that she'll go have an abortion without even telling him that she was pregnant.
Thus, he can't be seen as an accomplice; he can't be an accomplice in an abortion if he doesn't even know there was a pregnancy.
Third, she could get pregnant and tell him she's going to have an abortion -- at which time he can beg and plead her not to do it. If she does it anyway, then it's not his fault. He tried to stop her but couldn't.
Finally, this pro-abortion woman, upon becoming pregnant, may change her tune and decide to opt for the side of life after all.
So, no -- simply having sex with a pro-abortion woman would not make any man an "accomplice" in anything.
A lot of other things have to happen after that, in order for him to be an accomplice.
He can only be an accomplice if he actively helps make the abortion happen -- if he pays for it, drives her to the abortion mill, or so on.

Even if he considers it to be murder, it is not recognized in this country as murder, so legally, no. Also, just because he has sex with a woman who is pro-abortion does not mean he will necessarily impregnate her.
Pro-abortion is a weird term in the first place, and most of the time people are pro-choice, not pro-abortion. So even if said man impregnates his pro-choice woman, she may choose not to have an abortion. She may just want to keep that option open for other women in the country who might need to use it.

If you get a pro-abortion woman pregnant, and you can't get her to change her mind, then there's only one thing you can do - you must murder the woman! That way, you will have stopped her from murdering the baby.

I almost dismissed this question, but felt I had to offer this one point for consideration.
How much resposibility does a man have for ALL the consequences of his part in starting a pregnancy? Think beyond the limits of the "box." Is a sperm donor responsible for any action after his donation? Technically, live sperm can be stolen. Is the man responsible for a subsequent pregnancy? If I throw away a piece of glass in my garbage can, am I responsible if someone injures another with it?
Just something to think about.

Abortion IS murder IF:
-The baby was aborted after the 40th day of pregnancy, for no reason (Scientifically, the embryo becomes humanly (fetus) after the 40th day)
-But if mother's health or life is in danger, then abortion must be done.

Are you saying he considers abortion murder because he's a Christian? Because if he's a Christian, he wouldn't be out having sex with random women.

No, you can't murder what hasn't come into existence yet. Now, having sex b4 marriage and not using birth control are separate issues

i've never heard of anyone being pro-abortion...
but i think it's just silly for a man that considers abortion to be murder to have unprotected sex. period.
condoms are cheap. becoming gay is cheaper?

He's misguided for not using birth control.
No he is not an accomplice to murder cause the courts hold that it is not murder
