I am not appealing to my beliefs whatsoever, so I don't know why you bring that up. The parasitical relationship applies to a lot of human dependancies... I still don't understand how you can reason justly ending a persons life on it.
You're the one who decided to equivocate and use such imagery. Here you are just reasserting yourself with the same argument reworded. Perhaps you don't understand how I would reason that because I make no such argument, nor do I even attempt to do so. Again, there are parasitic relationships in biology, and there are the things which we call parasitic relationships between each other.
I'm just going to demolish both so that next time you can just say godwillsit without all this fluff. Firstly, I haven't heard anyone here, at any point, claim that abortion is justified because the babies are parasites. Nor have I heard anyone here advocate any sort of "social cleansing" bullshit. Nothing, not a shred even approximating either. What's the deal here? Why even argue against points that no one makes? Is this a practice run for that moment that you'll actually have something to say?
