Read my question again. I think you may have misunderstood it.

I understood it perfectly. If the only action was abortion then you do nothing and hope it works out. Inaction is never as evil as action.

If I saw a child drowning and could easily save them but choose not to because I don't feel like getting wet. Is that kosher then? Is inaction.

No that's just murdering the kid. You made the active choice not to help save the child. Unless you couldn't cause you;d die at at the same time, or you'd have to murder someone innocent to do it.

Do you know what active means? Is English not your first language? (serious question, not being a dick)
