Yes, it would be permissible for you to kill a parasite or tapeworm. I don't know why that means it should also be ok to kill a human fetus. In no other argument do we use our treatment of animals (let alone of parasites) as a standard for how we should treat humans. It's ok to kill a tapeworm living in your intestines just as it is ok to kill a fish you're going to eat. The same cannot be said about humans, for either count.
...Unless of course, you are saying that a human fetus is not human. Again, if that's the case then we would need to take this discussion all the way back to the question of a fetuses' humanity. It's pointless to talk about this if we haven't settled that step yet. We are way ahead of ourselves.
We're way ahead of you in our grasp on morality. It would be you who would be flaunting that word all over everwhere, and still not having a clue as to what it really means.
The parasite in question is you. You reject reality-based morality in favor of continually feeding your addiction to fairy-tale horrors. You insult everyone who you talk to about the issue with outrageously twisted apologetics for your lobbying against the rights against actual breathing people, just so that you can feel like you are pleasing your imagined fairy godfather. For this, you are beneath contempt!
Mr. Hanky loves you!
