So you don't like the idea of abortions but you wouldn't enact laws to prevent them? Sounds pro-choice to me. Do you recognise that a womans bodily autonomy trumps the rights of an unborn foetus?
I think the more liberal Christian position is that abortion is wrong, but that denying the capacity of people to choose wrong goes against the purpose of God-given free-will. This is not so much about the woman's rights being more important than those of the fetus, but about the importance of letting the woman choose what is right or wrong on her own terms.
