No actual bible teaching mentions the word abortion.

Roman Catholics: Believe:
                 Life begins at conception - the foetus is a human being with human rights.

                      All bible teaching on human life also applies to the foetus - especially the
                         commandment (6th) �Do not kill�.

                      If a mother can not support her baby then it should be adopted.

                      Life is sacred because it is given by God - �created in the image of God�
                         (creation story).

Anglicans & Methodists: Believe :
                     Life does not begin until the baby has a chance to survive independently from
                         the mother.

                      Abortion is wrong BUT justifiable if there was a chance of greater harm to the
                         mother, or if she had been raped.

Christians For Free Choice (organisation): Believe:
                      Should be left to the woman�s conscience, which will be guided by God.

                      The decision to continue a pregnancy should not be forced on the woman.
