I actually went from anti-choice to pro-choice on this one. I think the better solution would be a societal approach of lessening the factors that would force women in to having to have or desire an abortion. Increasing parenting classes, less stigmatism and better conditions for orphans and adoptions, lowering sexual crime rates, inreasing awareness, etc. I don't think a normal woman under normal circumstances with a normal child and a means to care for the child would intentionally choose to give up that child, so my switch to pro choice actually falls on the character of humanity and relies less on the definition of life.
"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post
