Thames, I totally accept the criticism that it's unfair to throw stones at pregnant women when you are highly unlikely to become pregnant yourself, as in my case. I definitely live in a glass house in this respect.

As to equating a fetus with a parasitic growth ... I'm just not going to touch that one.

The only thing I am "demanding," as it were, is that the rights of a fetus be given some acknowledgement, especially when they are viable human beings that could survive on their own if they were delivered prematurely.

The thing that bothers me most about the current abortion situation, is that so many are performed for no better reason than the convenience of the expectant mom. I think that this just trivializes life too much.
