The problem is that no 100% brightline exists to say where a fetus/zygote becomes a human, except for when the child can live outside the woman's body.
Is it murder if someone has an abortion an hour/week/month/9 months before they birth the child ?
Is using birth control to stop a pregency the same as an abortion ?
How about if my hypo-wife and I decide not to have sex one night when a child would have been concieved if we had sex, is that killing a child ?
The only brightline I see is when a child can survive outside the woman's body. That is why I think that third-trimester abortions are unethical while a first or second trimester are not.
Edit: That being said, I don't believe that my morality is right for anyone else and that is why I won't consider imposing my beliefs on someone else.
