I don't really believe there is logic to it. I don't even have a problem with them thinking abortion or homosexuality are wrong. I have a problem with them wanting to impose their beliefs on me and future generations of women as law. Being pro-choice doesn't make someone have an abortion. Being pro-life makes someone not have an abortion (South Dakota's new law with its lack of incest clause makes me insane).
Whether or not I marry someone of the same sex or have an abortion affects them not at all, except that they can't stand that it's happening. They convince themselves these things will bring about the downfall of society or the wrath of God (if there is one), but all societies fall and they have no right to force their God's views upon me/you/etc.
On a side note, writing off pro-choice as pro-murder allows them not to have to look at the other side of the argument very deeply. To realize there are people like you and I on the pro-choice side would shake the foundations of their argument in many cases and they might have to CHANGE their stance *gasp*.
