It all revolves around when the fetus is viewed as human. The further along in the pregnancy it goes, the more people you would get that would agree terminating the pregnancy would be socially harmful and the right should be limited, to the point that once the baby is born 99.9999% of people would agree.
I suppose I was being a bit extreme asking Kipper is King what other things he didn't believe women should have the choice in.

I do agree with you that the further along a pregnancy is the more "human" a fetus really is. I do think that there should be a reasonable limit as to when a fetus can and can't be aborted. The only thing that really bothers me is that some people believe that there shouldn't even be a choice in the first place.
