I know I'm just reiterating what Tib already said, but talking like a baby has no business being in his/her mom's womb just sounds silly to me, so I figured I'd comment.
I don't agree with the argument that a cancerous tumor has no right to be in a smoker's lung. If it grew there, that is exactly where it's supposed to be. That is how nature was designed to work, that is how it was all intended to be.

(This is also known as the naturalistic fallacy, in case you didn't know.)
... This was good, actually. This shows the fundamental difference between our thinking, and really, the root of the argument.
That argument being this: is an unborn entity with human DNA a human being? Since you are putting him/her on the same level as a cancerous tumor, I'd say you probably don't think so. I do. And so if we wanted to have a well organized, thorough debate on abortion, we'd have to start there.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
