Would you have considered doing so before I made that point?

Honestly, I don’t think it’s a fair comparison; a tree and a human being.  I’m not saying that a fetus is a fully fledged human being.  I don’t even consider myself pro-life.  I’m just saying that the fetus is human, and if a moral distinction can be made between shooting a guy versus chopping down an oak tree, then I don’t believe we should be comparing offspring.

Wiser words were never spoken.
