I see. Even though I have no children, I have concieved before (eventually lost to miscarriage), and I never felt anything. But then again, maybe I'm heartless. Who knows...
I still believe it's a matter of opinion as to when real life/soul is present.

Once a child is concieved,the mother then becomes a vessel,to carry a Blessing from God,and she should put aside her own ego and wants,because the conception of the child,is greater than her and she should do all that she can,to nurture the child until it's born.
Even though I don't agree with this, I respect your reasoning behind it. Personally though, I don't hold any life in higher regard than any other (baby/child or not), but that's just me. So of course, I am pro-choice. This world is becoming vastly overpopulated as it is.

I'm sorry that you believe that everyone that does not see eye to eye with you 'has issues'. You must be one important person, if we are to base all of our beliefs with yours in order to be mentally stable.
But... I think I'll stick with my own thoughts, thank you.
