               1.  Abortion should never be permitted.
               2.  Abortion should be permitted only if the life and health
                      of the woman is in danger.
               3.  Abortion should be permitted if, due to personal reasons,
                      the woman would have difficulty in caring for the child.
               4.  Abortion should never be forbidden, since one should not
                      require a woman to have a child she doesn't want.
