The abortion debate centers on whether or not a human person is being killed during the procedure. Pro-lifer’s say that the baby is a human person from conception, while pro-choicer’s say that the embryo/fetus has the potential to reach personhood but is yet to do so. They say that since the embryo is only potentially a person, if it is aborted before a certain point, a human person has not been killed.
If looked at purely from a biological viewpoint we are at a standstill, since no one can actually prove when life, and/or personhood, begins. But if looked at from the viewpoint of love, it doesn’t matter if it is a human person at conception, or only potentially so, it would still be wrong to abort it.
If a parent has a child with the potential to be a great athlete, love would demand that the parent help the child reach its potential. Love would never snuff such potential out. In the same way if an embryo has the potential for life and personhood, then love would demand that we enable it to reach its potential. As far as love is concerned, abortion, which would end such potential, would not be an option.
When Jesus was trying to show us how to love, he said that we should do unto others as we would have them do unto us. Very few if any of us would have wished to have been aborted because we value the opportunity to live our lives outside the womb.
If we would not have wished to have been aborted when we were in the womb, then love would demand that we do not abort those embryos and fetuses that are in the womb today.

John and Sally are 16. They are in love. Potentially, they could have a low estimate of about 24 children together. If John impregnated Sally every year until they were 40, when a low estimate would say that they could no longer produce children, then they would have 24 children.
John and Sally are 17. Now, they have 23 potential children together. They have killed a potential child by choosing to not have a child at age 17.
Should John and Sally have 23 children? Is it immoral for them to kill off any of their 23 potential children by not having them?
By your own logic, abstinence is FAR worse than abortion. By your own logic, the average person commits far more murders through abstinence than through abortion.
