How about these questions instead:

If it has a heartbeat is it alive?

If you terminate an animal with a heart beat that isnt able to defend itself, is that murder?

I always find myself refering to these simple questions when talking about abortion. My preference would be to allow individuals to make their own personal choices regarding bringing a child to term. Yet can see clearly the moral and ethical dilema's others might have based on their choices of mythology to adhere too.

I normally find myself answering yes to both of my stupid questions, and then ask myself a few more.

Something like

Is it ethical to impose ones personal views on anothers choice?

If it is, can I then inturn murder/kill those who choose to impose?

And the internal paradox continues, I prefer the killing/murder route myself but I am in the minority.
