I've gone back and forth on abortion myself many times. And what it ultimately came down to for me was when is the fetus considered life? Basically, that's always going to be some arbitrary limit. After a certain point, it's murder. If you have an abortion before, it would have gotten to that stage naturally but it didn't have the chance. So you could do it right before and it's okay, but right after and it's not okay. That kind of randomly selected thing really bothers me. I think it makes the most sense to say that it is a life from the very beginning. That could be considered arbitrary itself, but there's no killing it at all, so you don't have to worry about if it's murder or not.
Plus, I do think that the argument that it will become a human baby is valid, because there is nothing else in the world that will become human naturally. That is to say, if you left everything as it is now, you won't see a rock randomly turn into a human, or a human hatch from an egg, or anything like that. Are we going to define it as "pre-human" or just a fetus or something? That's okay, I guess. But I disagree. I think that it's human. I'm not going to say that I'm right or that this is scientifically correct. But it makes the most logical sense to me, and so that's what I believe. If you can convince me otherwise, I'm more than open to changing my views. It's happened many times before, and I'm sure it'll happen again.
