(None of this is meant to negate your assertions about conception or new life, or babies. We'll never achieve agreement there. I'd have to talk about seeds and oaks, and plans and bridges, and drag out hunger and AIDS and abuse. You'd you'd have to talk about souls, and sanctity, and killing babies.)

I don't think I ever mentioned souls is this discussion, and I don't remember using the term sanctity in this context.

Banning MAP isn't going to save unwanted "babies," it is just going to mean that embryos will be left to ripen and develop further.

I don't think we have discussed banning MAP. If I was to push to ban it I would only do so after abortion was outlawed. My post was not a response that it should be banned but rather a discription of why the idea failed to exite me or draw my support. I think in many cases where a woman would consider using MAP she would also be likely to have an abortion if the MAP is unavailable and she becomes pregnant but not in all cases.
