I believe in the sanctity of life, but is a fetus a living being?
For the religious among you, in the Bible, Genesis to be exact, referring to Adam, it says "He was formed out of the dust of the earth, and God breathed into his nostrils the breath of life". Thus, in one of the most important passages from this book, it says that Adam wasn't a life until he took his first breath.
I'm not saying I'm in favour of abortion, I value the fetus as a potential life, but I feel the woman should have the final decision.
