Woman's body, her choice. Not the government's. That being said, there should be limitations as to under what circumstances it is allowed. You don't want women using it as birth control!
I think adoption is all very well...but the world is already over populated. You have no guarantee your baby is going to a good home and that he/she will live a happy, healthy life. And you have no control over what is done after you sign them over.
As for the church...hypocrisy on many levels rings a bell. No comment.

Whether we write or speak or do but look
We are ever unapparent. What we are
Cannot be transfused into word or book.
Our soul from us is infinitely far.
However much we give our thoughts the will
To be our soul and gesture it abroad,
Our hearts are incommunicable still.
In what we show ourselves we are ignored.
The abyss from soul to soul cannot be bridged
By any skill of thought or trick of seeming.
Unto our very selves we are abridged
When we would utter to our thought our being.
We are our dreams of ourselves, souls by gleams,
And each to each other dreams of others' dreams.
Fernando Pessoa, 1918
