I was trying to formulate a theory of reproductive choice, that was applicable to both human choice and divine creativity which took freedom and responsibility seriously. You could leave out the God part, and I think it may still make sense but I am interested in keeping the God part in because many religious thinkers on the question seem to assume that if God is a part of the discussion of abortion ethics, it requires that humans can't responsibly change their minds after conception.
