Personally, I don't see what the problem is. There is an ethical dilemma here, but it's not yours. If she wants an abortion all she has to do is check the yellow pages for "abortion providers." The preceding column is usually "abortion alternatives." She doesn't need a referral from you to go to one of these places, and you being against it won't stop her either. I think the best answer to this question is simply to advise her of a good, local (free) women's services center that specializes in pre-abortion and alternatives counseling (plus let's not forget post-abortion counseling). If she wants an abortion she already knows where to go...so referring her to a counseling service is the best option, even if you're ok with abortion. It's the ultimate irrevocable decision, so it's only reasonable to consider the other options first.
I must say I agree with this opinion wholeheartedly. It's what I was trying to say in my posts, buy you were able to put it into words much more eloquently than I was.
