	All eggs grade A or better are guaranteed unfertilized, so if one
	eats only these eggs (the only ones sold at grocery stores I have
	seen), then one is not taking away a life by any logical definition.
	The comparison to abortion, therefore, is totally unwarranted in
	this case.

One should be aware, however, of the horribly cruel conditions under which
most hens live while producing eggs.  See Animal Liberation by Peter Singer
for detailed information on this.
