Science cannot agree when life begins. Giving someone a choice to kill someone does not sound good to me
There is no consensus

you keep saying that there is freedom of choice, but what choice are you giving that child when you kill the child before birth?

simply, when a fetus can survive without extraordinary measures outside the womb, then it's no longer a woman's choice. Until then, it is...and by the way, there actually is a legal consensus. The end of the second trimester. Until then, simply put, a fetus is not human, and thus it's not murder.

No consensus? Then I would say it's when the fetus is viable. I'm no supporter of abortion, but I don't have the right to tell someone what she should do in any circumstance since I'm not that person and I've not been in her shoes.

Since there is no consensus on which is the correct religion, how can one support theism?
Since there is no consensus on which is the correct sect of Jesus-followers, how can one support Christianity?
Not a good argument.

I don't support abortion. I support choice. What a woman does with the insides of her body is her own business.

One becomes human when one learns how to treat a woman who needs an abortion humanely.

It should only be a choice between a woman, her husband, and any religious leader NOT a choice for society to make

Freedom of conscience, the same freedom of conscience that allows you to choose your religion, even when the wrong choice could torture your soul for all eternity.
