I see I am indeed wasting my time. There is clearly more to the definition of man that his ability to think and we see it instinctively when we see an unthinking newborn child. That child is us out of the womb, and no magic makes it not us while it is in the womb. With TP's "thought" definition of humanity, all sorts of evil pours forth and not only the evil of murdering children. Some of us are perhaps better at thinking than others. So then those of us who think best are perhaps those of us who are worthier of life. If some are worthier than others, then we might choose to slaughter them as we slaughter the unborn. Nature shows us the fact of who we are. To support abortion as part of our nature we must vigorously avoid ourselves to fabricate lies. You know, I probably should say my beef with abortion has nothing at all to do with people. It is philosophical, a philosophical contradiction of who we are on this planet. I have read here that Poet, for example, has employed her freedom to choose abortion. I like Poet, and her choice does not make me dislike her any less than I do. Indeed, I likely enjoy her much more than many who reject abortion. That is not the issue here. I want it known that I am convinced abortion is foreign to the fundamental self-expressing nature that ultimately defines us all as one thing - human.
