Z, <Because I can't. It's what I believe.>

Allow me to clarify and say it's what you believe to be a life.

In other words, it all depends on what your definition of a "life" is.

>Do you see the logical fallacy in associating the "right to abortion" with the "right to privacy"? Why can't you associate the "right to kill a newborn in a bathroom" with the "right to privacy"? After all, if a woman wants to do that, it should be no one else's business but hers, right?

Because I can't. It's what I believe.


Examine the logic of the decision for a moment, instead of examining it as a policy that you would support or oppose. How does a "right to privacy" become a right to an abortion, unless its a right to do anything in private?

I could make a reasonable argument for making abortion legal, even though I would disagree with the argument, but I can't see any reasonable argument that the constitution requires that abortion be made legal. If I had to make such an argument the only way to go would be to BS my way through it.
