Well the pro-lifers will argue that abortion is wrong because the soul is put into a person at conception.
Which, of course, is an odd position to take because it makes God the biggest abortionist of the lot.
I dunno what the statistcis are but "natural" abortion (miscarriages, etc..) are frequent and, according to fundamentalist logic, must occur because of Adam's fall - there being no death if he hadn't fallen.
Which, of course, gives the justification to pro-lifers who pump bullets into the heads of abortionists. If God can kill, they are only following God's morality.
