What do you mean by self-expressing?
By nature the human conceptus divides or expresses into multiple cells that eventually are expressed into eyes, ears and mouths. These eyes, ears and mouths naturally express into sight, hearing and speech. And these things naturally express such things as relationships, poetry, literature, which naturally express culture and society. All this is the natural and ultimate expression of humanity, and it is founded on the naturally expressing nature of the human conceptus.
It is self-evident that all humans are created equal and are given by The Creator the right to live and freedom to be what nature has given them to be, so that whatever nature has in store for them they may pursue it to their fullest expression and happiness. Abortion takes away this right, thwarting the design of nature, denying the human its right to be what it was continually being. Abortion is a gigantic sin against nature and human principle.
I believe the standard of protecting all human life from conception on would end up outlawing most forms of contraception - the pill and IUD's - as well as abortion. Do you favor this?
If the human conceptus exists, and is extinguished by some means, that means cannot be accurately called “contraceptive.” It is abortion causing, and thus likely causes murder. Murder is a sin against humanity. It denies a human the self-evident right to self-expression—a right given it by nature. |
