Pro-life is wrong as a blanket policy.
Pro-choice is wrong as a method of birth control.
Pro-life should be valid after a certain scientific cut-off where it has been legally decided that the fetus is a living person with a mature enough mind that it will evolve into a normal human being.
Pro-choice should be valid in all cases prior to this cut-off fetus age, particularly for rape victims, etc. Pro-choice should also be valid until the fetus gains legal status because that is the law. Until it becomes a person, it is the property of the mother and part of her body and she can do whatever she sees fit.
If a couple is considering abortion, there needs to be a reason for it other than "oops", but I think it should be a legal and morally accepted option.
I also consider this to be a relatively moderate point of view, which is what most people actually believe.
Edit: I realize I mixed up pro-life with "allow all fetuses to live no matter what" and pro-choice with "kill all babies!!" but that's tough. I'm just trying to say that the moderate view is preferred.
