you would not know an "honest tactic" if it bit you in the butt.

a group of cells that can't think and are existing as a parasite

You must be infertile and bitter about that fact.

"Granting some kind of civil status to a group of cells"

You're position is sick (imo) and dishonest. Even your cryptic line above mis-states. What I call allowing something to live (ie not kill it) you call "some kind of civil status". What you call a "group of cells" I call a human life (as does the medical community). Your word "parasite" clearly defines your view of the worth of an unborn child, and it is not pretty. Let me re-word your statement to reflect how it really is.

Granting LIFE to an UNBORN CHILD is an honest PRINCIPAL.

Please answer this:

Do you think a fetus in the 2nd and 3rd trimester is alive?

a group of cells that can't think and are existing as a parasite is also not an honest tactic.

Calling unborn life within the womb "parasitic" is not an honest tactic. Even in biology the implication is that a parasite derives sustenance and protection without making compensation, hardly the case with offspring, unless they become socialists.<g>
