That's the origin of "abduction", also used in physiology meaning: moving of a body part away from the central axis of the body
So, aliens separate us from what is central to us, from where we belong: the Earth. I think that is why they use that word. Otherwise, it sounds good, don't you think? Misterious...

M$Yes, that's interesting... but, how about children that are taken to a doctor, for example, in a context and for the reasons completely outside of child's ability to factor in, so to speak. Are these kids taken to a doc against their will? Or, there may be situations that fall outside this whole free will paradigm.
Could the abduction phenomenon be viewed from a similar perspective, from beyond right/ wrong, good/ bad, black/ white...?
well it kinda is referred to as abducting when a child is taking against their will to a doc. when children go, it is never becuz they want to. and if only the abductees would understand or knew that they were going to be taken, then they would most definitely not consent. the only thing that i can possibly rebutle is that when some one is abducted , it is never to some place that is close to home or anything. ET's always hide in the mysterious black abyss. and even though harm is never intentional in these cases, the abductee always refers to being probed and examinied in a painful way. so in a way, abduction could paossibly mean the unlawful, uneathical taking of a person without their consent with intention to do bodily or psychological harm.

This is very interesting answer! It gives a completely new, different spin to the word. Usually, it's interpreted along the lines suggested by @theagony87 in his answer.
