Attack at Planned Parenthood Clinic

[Whateverist]

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.

I know I'm just restating what Cathy already said, but talking like a cancerous tumor has no business being in a smoker's lungs just sounds silly to me, so I figured I'd comment.



(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?

Oh an unborn baby is certainly on a trajectory to be a human being. It is at least a "human becoming". But a fetus implanted by a rapist against the mother's wishes has more in common with a cancerous growth than a baby. It certainly has no more business being there, if the mother doesn't want it, than the perp's penis had in her vagina. But I suppose that too is where it was always intended to be.
