How to be Pro-Life and Pro-Choice

Image Source: Abort73.com As a Christian, I believe that scientifically, life starts at conception. In fact I kind of believe that life doesn't start there, since the tissue is always 'alive' though egg and sperm are separate. But of course I have trouble with that theory, since, if you follow it to it's logical conclusion then you're basically committing genocide every time you spank the monkey. So then I kind of also think that life starts not just with the biological, but the soul. Since I believe the soul does not end with death, then why should the soul simply start with conceived life? Indeed, the bible itself testifies the fact that "Long before [God] laid down earth's foundations, he had us in mind..." (Eph 1:4 Message). So it seems to me that our bodies are just a temporary vessel, condemned to death, but we are not without hope of eternal life. I guess this puts me slightly in the 'pro-choice' camp. However, I have given this a lot of thought and I've come up with a solution to the whole debate, as well as getting around the controversy over the age of the fetus. It's simple. If a woman is considering an abortion, give her the option to wait until the fetus is born, then she can be free to decide if she still wants to abort. They could extend this to maybe 5 years after birth, just in case it doesn't work out with the fetus. By the way, no apologies for the image. Reality is often sick, and the truth can be pretty ugly.
