Abortion is wrong, but let women choose
My religion says that abortion is wrong. And while I may believe that life begins when the sperm meets the egg, and that only God should decide whether to take a life, I will not stand in the way of a woman's right to choose.
If women do not have a right to choose, then it's a civil rights violation.

His Supreme Court nominees will allow right to choose
I would only appoint justices to the Supreme Court who are for women having the right to choose whether or not they will have an abortion.
Now, I can believe something without having to impose my beliefs on others. That's true separation of church and state.
