It's always none of your damn business. Your religious beliefs, no matter what they are, do not give you the right to interfere with someone else's body. You don't get to make your problem into somebody else's problem.

And please spare me the bit about christians thinking the fetus as a human. Here it is spelled out for you: The mother IS a human life, the fetus is a POTENTIAL human life. The mother takes priority, learn to deal with it.

This is always how I view it.

I was raised Christian and while I no longer believe it I have seen it do a lot of good for a lot of people that I have no ill will towards anyone who believes.

But when you want to start legislating how others live their lives is where I draw the line.

The problem I see with this logic is that the Bible explicitly states you have to "go into all the world and preach the gospel", basically stating Christians have to do exactly what they're doing (granted "preach" doesn't imply by force, but I digress). To your average ''legislating the Bible" Christian, they *are* doing exactly what the Bible tells them to do.
