Sidney, some Christians who do not believe in abortion just believe that this religious decision belongs to the individual rather than the government. It is a moral issue between the individual and their God!

Another similar decision is, "when does death occur?" Does the individual have the right to say to the physician, "keep me alive at all cost through the use of respirator, etc.? One of my neighbor's, a physician, has stated that he does not want chemical or radiation treatment to extend his life. He is dying of a brain tumor. Should he have that right even though the treatment may extend his life "x" number of years! If the individuals is brain dead, but a respirator maintains the function of his body organs with the exception of the cognitive regions of the brain, is the individual deceased? Does the individual or his family morally have the right to terminate the total function of one's body?

Personally, I believe morally he/she has that right! Again, it is the individual choice of the person after praying with his Creator. That decision does not belong with the government.
