I am looking for impute on why you do or do not believe abortion is murder. I feel very strongly on the subject, I wanted to know others feelings or beliefs on it.

I traveled a long road from being pro-abort to pro-life. It took me about 4 or 5 years to go from being all “it’s my body,” to the middle (“abortion is wrong but I want it to be safe and legal”) to what I believe now, that abortion is murder.
What finally tipped the balance for me was studying dog genetics. That’s when I found out that, at the moment of conception, a full genome is created. That means the whole blueprint for a complete, mature human being is there at conception. Thus, if abortion is OK, then so is killing an inconvenient teenager. I had no doubt about the second being murder, so (so to speak) the second shoe dropped, and I “got it.”
That’s the intellectual conviction. Since then, and since becoming Catholic, I have become more and more deeply convicted, to the point where I see all babies, from the moment of conception, as precious gifts from God.
Well - you asked!

Because the Church teaches it is murder. I don’t think I would oppose abortion if I relied only upon reason.
I accept the teaching as an act of faith, acknowledging that reason has limits and we need to rely on revelation for some moral guidance.

Faith cannot go against reason. There is nothing unreasonable about being pro-life. The instant an egg becomes fertilized, a new human being exists. This is not a matter of “what we believe” but a matter of scientific fact. Now if we say human life at that point is expendable, we have degraded our own humanity. At what point are we to draw the line? When does a human life begin to “count”? The instant the baby is born? That makes no sense because a baby is a baby rather or not it is within its mother.
An unborn baby is a human being. It becomes human the moment it comes into existence. This is science, not religion. The Church seeks to protect human life and uphold its dignity in a world that values life only if it is some how immediately useful. This is why our society does not care if we kill unborn children or the elderly. As soon as we undermine the value of life, our whole society is compromised. It is our duty as Catholics to uphold the value of the precious life that our creator has breathed into us, and to defend it from conception to natural death.
You shouldn’t even have to be religious to be pro-life. You just have to have reason
