I believe in religious freedom in this country. So therefore, just because I personally oppose abortion, how can I expect every American who does not share my faith to abide by that as well?

Like a discussion on a previous thread, why is being pro-life exclusive to Christianity? I would think even an athiest could grasp the concept that a fetus is a baby, since it has its own DNA, its own brain, it's own body...and that ending a pregnancy with abortion is murdering that baby.

One of the best articles against abortion I have ever read was written by a left leaning atheist for those and other reasons.

It isn't really a Christian issue, it is a human issue.
