As evidenced by other threads on this forum, this one will stir up much ire, anger, and animosity, especially among those who have no grasp of "Philosophy and Logic 101" and those who mistakenly want to retain personal rights and freedoms, but deny them to others.

It all depends. If it's because you believe it's a human life, then you can't believe it's a woman's right to infringe on the right to life of another human being just because it resides inside her. There is so much gray area involving this topic, I can't believe some of the pro-choicers here don't comprehend the other side of the argument.
