Is there a more Christian way to debate abortion?

“The irony of the abortion debate, as it now stands in our church and society, is that it frames these two groups, women and children, as enemies of one another … The Christian response to abortion must reframe the issue to focus on responsibility rather than rights. The pro-choice/pro-life debate presently pits the right of the mother to choose against the right of the foetus to live. The Christian response, on the other hand, centres on the responsibility of the whole Christian community to care for the least of these.”
