People argue on and on about these topics and they know their views are correct. right?

I think that is a bunch of bullspit.

How can you have such strong convictions for something that probably 99.9% of the responders have never experienced?

Put yourself in these positions and rethink your answers.
(and i mean really think about all the varialbes)

hmmmmm. that is an interesting way of looking at it. it it makes a lot of sense too. i also think that if people put themselves in the positions they argue about they would change what they think. But sometimes people may just find a way around it. say that even in that position they would still have these same views. it is a complicated thing!

you make that comment but you also must think that the only person that truly experiences the abortion, in the fullest sense, is the child being aborted, and there is no unborn child that is pro-choice

Given the development of the fetal nervous system at the time most abortions are performed, it's unlikely (I'll grant not impossible) that the fetus experiences anything beyond the instinctive, from what I understand.

Personally, I've had one miscarriage and sat with a friend at a medically necessary (but unwanted) abortion. I also remember my mother having an abortion just before she left my step dad; it's a choice that probably saved our lives (he was literally psychotic and we needed no permanent ties to him, I can assure you). Between the two personal experiences, I doubt I could ever go through with an abortion (although the miscarriage guaranteed I'll never need one). But I think it should remain safe and legal under the law.

There is no child born into this world kicking and screaming that was pro-choice either.
