In cases of rape... it's hard. The victim certainly does NOT deserve to have her life changed so drastically, but at the same time, if one is to consider a fetus in the womb to be enough of a person that our morals regarding the right to life apply to it, then at the very least, some sort of solution where the child can be saved should be reached... It is certainly not an easy decision, but still...
As for adoption, let the child decide on their own later if they would have preferred death to whatever life that may give them. At least with adoption they are still alive and can potentially live a happy life. It's not such a terrible fate.
Anyway, I can only say that I really REALLY have a problem with killing people, which has only been enhanced as of late.

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
