I fully support women who choose not to have an abortion under any circumstances for whatever reason, whether religious our otherwise. The problem comes when people try to force their views on others by preventing them to choose. There are certainly valid reasons regarding individual rights to limit abortions. This is why the viability test makes sense, at which point the mother's life must be in danger to allow an abortion. Prior to that, it makes sense to leave it to the woman. Extreme laws prohibiting abortion are having a terrible effect in some states where mothers are being charged with murder if they happen to have drugs in their system after a miscarriage. There is more on this here: https://www.nytimes.com/2019/07/01/opinion/alabama-pregnant-woman-shot.html?searchResultPosition=21

The end result is that extreme laws criminalize pregnancy and can lead women to avoid care at a time when they need it most. The other reality here is that some women will still seek to have an abortion, just underground (for poor women) or in another state or country for the wealthy. So these laws are also just another way to discriminate against and criminalize the poor.

As a scientist I also think it important to avoid using religious arguments to create laws. Not everyone has the same religion and a growing number, like me, have no religion at all. Given that there is evidence for any specific religion, religion is an appropriate reason for personal decisions, but not laws that apply to all. For that we must look to the constitution and science. I also find it amusing that the so-called pro-life people in the US don't really care about the mother or about babies after they are born. If they did, they would support a stronger social safety net, universal healthcare, and so on.
