My personal opinion is that, yes, the 40-year-old criminal
should be forced to donate blood to save the life of
your 7-year-old daughter who he attacked.

I guess you don't agree with me...
That's fine, we can agree to disagree...

But, I think it's fair to say that YOUR position on this
issue is very rigid (just like the Bible thumpers).
YOU are the one who claims to have a
"lock on the truth".

I'm willing to consider exceptions (in extreme circumstances) to
the idea that "a person's right to control their own body is absolute".
My position is not rigid.

You are apparently NOT willing to consider ANY such exceptions,
and you would actually be willing to let your 7-year-old daughter die
just to uphold your rigid position. Yet, you deign to warn me
about the dangers of religious zealotry... how amusing!

It appears to me that YOU are the zealot...

That unfortunate decision is what keeps the topic alive.

The fact is that the Supreme Court made the decision for the entire population & for now that's that.
