A Christian shouldn't be asking this question.
That's ridiculous. This is clearly a debatable topic among many learned Christians. Not to mention the fact that when setting government policy, it needs to be done outside of religious dogma.
Its ultimately about when an unborn child becomes "human" and thus has a "right to life." So it is a spiritual question.
I don't know. For those who place their faith in science, this is one question that is definitely settled: human DNA.
We've exposed Ernst Haeckel's intentional lie. The human embryo doesn't go through various animal stages of development. It's never a fish or a pig or a chicken. It's always human.
DNA proves that.
We can debate when that human life becomes value in the eyes of God, but there is no debate, scientific or religious, as to when the life becomes human.
Oh, and as for the debate about when God deems a human life as valuable...
Isaiah 44:24 (NKJV)

Who stretches out the heavens all alone,
Who spreads abroad the earth by Myself;
Jeremiah 1:5 (NKJV)
