I am quite surprised you say you do not know since I have addressed this before and I would have been almost certain you were a participant on such a thread.
But for your benefit I would again say that living in a democratic society of pIural beliefs I have struggled a great deal throughout my life trying to balance the rights of the unborn with the legal rights of women on this issue.
And upon much prayer and the use of my rational mind (thank you btw), it is still not simply a black and white issue to me. And thus on this one particular issue I currently separate my personal religious and faith beliefs from what is now legal under the law of the land in a democracy of plural beliefs.
At the moment I am still uneasy beyond current law to force by mandate onto others my faith beliefs as to when human life with a soul begins and when personhood rights should begin. I am not yet comfortable making it illegal for a woman to choose in cases of rape or incest or illegal for her to choose to save her life.
We have had a law of the land for nearly 40 yrs now. It allows for restrictions. I have voted to restrict minors for instance from being able to obtain a legal abortion without parental notification. Subject to a judicial “out” in cases where the minor could be threatened with harm by her parents if they were notified.
So at this time I strive for some common ground. And since it is legal with restrictions allowed, safe but rare seems like a rational place to me to start. And I turn my attention then to the many other issues I as a pro life voter must ponder, consider, and pray upon.
Frankly this one issue is not something in which I have ever singularly based my voting on. And I certainly have never said, oh this candidate is pro choice so I am going to vote for him or her. There are always plenty of other differences between the candidates which I weigh and pray upon.
Abortion is an important issue but perfection is not on earth. There will always be some satisfied with and others unhappy with a particular earthly law. And so I do not believe the focus of a democratic society of plural beliefs on abortion should be such then that it occurs at the expense and detriment of a multitude of other life issues in which I believe Jesus at least as much directly addressed.
