We do not need to make up new sins.

God has given to us all that we need pertaining to life and godliness.

I really wish you would argue sensibly, It's called systematic theology, we can see from the bible what is wrong and what is right.

The question isn't, if abortion is a sin?,
The OP is:
"Is abortion a sin"

That is the OP.

the question is, Is abortion the right term used to commit such a heinous act upon God's blessing?

It is called "murder", and I do believe the bible talks about murder and calls it a SIN.

"Abortion" is a man made word, used to appease the conscience.
Murder requires life.

God says that life is breathing.

If you do not breath air, then you are not a living soul.

If you have not breathed air for 3 days than you have died.

To killing is okay, murder is not.

Though in either case, they both require a living soul.

I don't know where you get the idea that a child must be born to be alive:
"Thou hast been my God from my mother's womb"

I am sorry but I can pick even more verses to question and to be honest this argument is asinine.

I ask you, Does God think abortion is wrong, yes or no? and don't say, you don't know because that's a copout. Throughout the bible do you see anything of God in his nature that would justify abortion? that man has the right to take life without His permission. Please show me since you want to use scripture to totally blasheme God's name.

Nay, God knew us from before the foundations of the world.

When God was yet seperating the waters from the waters of the deep, He knew us.

Respect for life requires punishing those who fail to respect life.

The Bible even makes it clear that the judicial system should provide "an eye for an eye."
