You want fetuses to be allowed to use another person's body as a life support system even if that other person does not consent. No one else has the right to use another person's body without their consent. thus, you want fetuses to have more rights than anyone else.
I am not Christian. Do not make me live by the beliefs of Christians.
It's not an ad hominem just because you feel offended.
I am pointing out that you are using moral arguments that are specific to a group within our larger society (i.e. you are appealing to a specifically intrusive Christian morality) rather than using logic and evidence that would be applicable to all members of society.
There is a crack in everything,
That's how the light gets in...

Abortion will always be considered immoral by Christian social teaching and this will continue to propel the pro-life movement. It's a form of conscientious objection.
