And partial birth abortion? Watch out for the game of words. IF I can call a child a fetus, well then I can somehow not see him or her as quite human. Get it? Why do you think this nation is killing babies that are ready to come out of the womb? Simple:just dehumanize them, which is what you're doing. One doesn't have to be a fanatic to be a realist.
Your argument goes back to the slavery thing. If I can consider someone of another race to not be quite human, well then I can do what I want with them. Hopefully, you'll see the truth someday.

Many arguments attempt to defend abortion as benefitting the as yet unborn. That argument is what I question. Perhaps you are saying that we should not consider what that fetus might have wanted. (Caveat: That is opposite to the arguments in the current election argument). That, again, is simply the argument that wonen get what they want regardless of any other consideration, i.e. the possible interests of the fetus.

<< Big difference between a human and a fetus. >>

If politicians ever get control over women's reproductive system, where will that slippery slope go next. Will they then want to protect unfertilized eggs, which, after all, could be argued to represent human life, since it can be fertilized outside of a woman's body. Anyone think I'm joking? Then you haven't dealt with a lot of conservative prolife radical wackoes.

America must NEVER open the door to reproductive repression.
