We seem to collectively have an idea of 'right to llive' with something something humanity, or pain-feelingness, or 'surviving-ness. It's pretty unclear where the border is. The religious pro-life view imbues humanity with Special Soul-ness from the get-go, which is complicated

Cause if I'm gonna buy into the Special Soulness then I have to buy into a lot of other stuff that's pretty hard for me to swallow and doesn't really make intuitive sense to me. But I agree pro-choicers do claim there is Specialness but don't know where to draw the line.

but you're assuming that the inherent value of HUMAN life is equivalent to that of say a chicken or a rabbit. It's not. Secondly, why is it difficult to come to the conclusion that regardless of developmental stage, human life has tremendous value?
