Well, no.

Generally "liberals" argue that the fetus is not a human life and therefore it's a woman's rights issue rather than an issue about life.
I actually agree with that, up to a point.

At the stage when foetus can survive outside the womb, then I consider it a child and a human life, and at that point abortion should not be allowed. Saying that, abortion should be heavily advised against after the stage in the foetus' growth when the central nervous system has developed - that's at 24 weeks, I think.

However, on top of all that, I subscribe to the view that only rape victims, or mothers whose lives may be in danger should they give birth, should be allowed abortions.
