I hope everyone stays focused. It is such a good question. I hope so, too. Unfortunately, the abortion issue has become so polarized, and polarizing, that it is virtually impossible to sustain a focussed, rational discussion of it. Which is a pity, IMO. Of all the issues we deal with as humans, what it means to be a human is one of the most important to sustain a focussed, rational discussion of, IMO. But Socrates got killed for trying it, and nobody else has succeed since. Sadly.
