Boyd K. Packer teaches that if we know the gospel of Jesus Christ, "abortion would be unthinkable."
Boyd K. Packer, "The Mystery of Life," General Conference, October 1983, accessed October 29, 2021
When one knows the gospel of Jesus Christ, there is cause to rejoice. The words joy and rejoice appear through the scriptures repetitively. Latter-day Saints are happy people. When one knows the doctrine, parenthood becomes a sacred obligation, the begetting of life a sacred privilege. Abortion would be unthinkable. No one would think of suicide. And all the frailties and problems of men would fade away.
