I'm pro-life and don't believe in abortions myself - however I don't think it'd be right for me to push my beliefs onto others with regards to what 'life' is) ... especially as I don't have to carry a baby to term myself.

I also think there are LOTS of grey areas which make me reluctant to promote 'no abortion at all' as an option regardless - ie. risks to mothers life, pregnant after rape etc.

PS - To me the strangest thing is all these 'anti-abortion' people who also try and prevent sex education and contraception ... surely if you don't want abortions then preventing unwanted pregnancies is a good start?
