Elroy, Stop putting words in my mouth, I've never written anything like that. I was specifically refering to the post where YOU said I said that a fetus was like a "tumor". I've never written anything like that. And yes, I think you should have your view of what you morally should do with a fetus inside your body, and you can have a view of what another person should do with a fetus inside their body, but the eventual decision of what to do with that fetus inside another person's body belongs to that person, not to you, and their decision of what to do should take precedence over your opinion of what they should do. And before you ask, no, I don't think we should kill homeless people, annex Puerto Rico, or imprison amputees.....

Implicit in such a statement is your belief that we should all be "tolerant" of opposing viewpoints. I would say the key point for me is that what another person does with their body is their business, not yours. That, combined with the belief that an unborn child and a born child are not the same thing. Could you be "tolerant" of genocide? No? How about infanticide? I heard of a teenage girl who brought her child to term, then strangled it to death. Should that be considered illegal, or merely a "choice" that ought to be defended? Stick to the topic. These parallel analogies waste our time - they are all different subject matter.
