How am I Pro-Christ if I'm not Pro-Life?!

        This is a question that many women toil with when having to make decisions in regards to abortion... Not always will they wonder if they choice will be accepted by God (or their Supreme Being) but will they be able to live with it morally. One can argue that is you are a follower of Christ (or any religious/spiritual sect) then how can you willing harm another creature?  Doesn't that seem a bit hypocritical??
       It may be but, if a woman isn't financially stable or at a point in her life where she can take care of a child, then she may feel that she is doing the child a service by not birthing him/her. However, we always learn that taking a life in any way is murder and murder is spiritually and morally wrong... Can we really hold a woman accountable for making this decision, even if it is looked up as a selfish one??
         There are many "excuses" (if you decide to call them that) that are used to support abortion: rape, poverty, instability... But one can argue there are options that refute those excuses: adoption, public assistance, getting your life together, or morality. All theses questions, excuses, and situations lead to one major one: How am I Pro-Christ if I'm not Pro-Life?!...or How am I ProLife if I'm not Pro-Life?!
