Abortion and Women's Rights

[John V]

OK, then since it's all just a matter of personal opinion, then you can use it to determine when YOU have an abortion and let other people make their own choices.

I noted some time ago that I have no objective in this matter. It's been settled law in the U.S. for decades.

Plus, I can say the same to you, as you seem to think that abortion after 21 weeks is murder or akin to it.

Are people who eat meat accomplices to murder because animals think?

The woman's right to make choices over her own life and control her own body is not in dispute. The point of debate is over whether or not these rights are trumped by some other factor.

Interesting...her own body. A fetus has a body prior to 21 weeks.

No brain, no pain.

That's kind of been my point in this whole thread.

If pain is the dividing line, then it's moral to kill anyone, as long as it's done painlessly.

And while I think your star wars bit is silly, if we build robots which think but don't feel pain, they apparently don't have any rights.
