Quote:Like I've said before, if abortion were able to remove the baby unharmed and have it live in an artificial womb until it was born, I would have *no* objections to it. My only objection to abortion is that it is a government sanctioned killing of a human life, and I don't believe anyone has a right to do that unless it is in self defence.Says the man who has no problem with the government enforcing racism. Or the government forcing a woman to carry a pregnancy she doesnt want to term. I can easily see Tiberius allowing the government to come into a home of a woman who wishes to have an abortion and forcefeeding her, or putting her in an asylum to ensure her baby comes out correct. Or arresting a doctor who had to give a split second decision on aborting a baby to save the womans life...of course the government has to ensure it was a correct decision, and if the doctor was wrong, then , well...its in jail for him as a murderer. For someone who claims to be for less government, it sure looks that the only place government would be lessened would be in corporations...anyone else would have shit loads more government in their private lives if Tiberius had his ways.

And the baby isnt? The baby is part of the womb the entire time. Your lack of education on biology is laughable. Did you ever pay attention in biology class?
