I think that's what makes this an impossible debate to solve - everyone has their own ideas on what constitutes a human life and that means that abortion is one of those things that will never have a definite rule for/against, because of variety of opinion.

I understand that some people believe that it isn't a mothers choice to make - it isn't her life that would be ending therefore it isn't fair to pass judgement, but at the same time, didn't we, as humans, spend the last god knows how many years fighting slavery and injustice and whatever else to have our own human rights? I don't think this is an argument that can be won, I think people have to accept that it will always be a borderline subject. To me it's necessary to introduce some limitations on abortions, but ruling them out all together would be a horrific mistake. The overpopulation and poverty would become too extreme. And I know we all run the rick of it when we have sex, but it's a healthy aspect of life - and what of the people who devoutly use protection who are in that 0.1% where it fails completely?
