You are making a logical error here by substituting different
referents for the same "it." That is, to stop the development of
"it"- the fetus-- is to stop the spiritual unfoldment of "it"--
the monad.  This is not so IMHO, or at least you are using "stop"
in conflicting manners: "end permanently" vs.  "temporarily
arrest." The monad cannot be stopped from unfolding (not a term
I'd choose but for sake of argument, OK) even if the entire
planet blows up.
