It can be if the pregnancy is fatal to the mother. or inconvient. JK.

But you don't get to define it and neither do I.

If someone advocates for the a woman to be able to choose to have an abortion, whatever the reason, they are prochoice.

Though like many labels, it is almost meaningless, such as calling someone a 'liberal' or 'conservative'. It is only a vague reference to where they may stand.

And that view is not consistent with accepted Catholic teaching.

I'm "Protest"-ant. My views are based on Scripture, prayer and the insight of the spirit to know what is good and what is not. I'm sure yours were originally based on the same.

As for the discrepancy...

Catholic teaching is based on Tradition which gave us the Scriptures.

[/quote]Where is the Scripture part that says abortion is okay? Though I'm not a catholic, i'd beg to differ what they base their anti-abortion stance on. But that's changing the subject. I'm curious on your Scripture reference.
