Using the slippery slope argument is just as valid as saying gay marriage shouldn't be allowed because polygamy, marrying animals and marrying children would come next. It is never a sufficient argument and is mostly used as a fallacy. Each case is a case and should be given appropriate treatment. Comparison alone isn't enough to prove anything. You still haven't justified why doctors should be forced to violate their principles by performing an abortion, you just made comparisons and conjectures, saying that other situations would be unbearably allowed. I'm still waiting for the answer. Isn't the most important principle in a doctor's ethic the right to live? If so, then what's more important, treating a mother to avoid an unwanted child, or avoid killing a fetus (if the doctor considers abortion killing)? You already know the answer.
Seriously. That's where you're going to go with this? It is not the same. Not even close. Doctors have a responsibility to treat patients. Doctors have an obligation to put their personal issues on the back burner and do their fucking jobs. Don't like it? Don't be a doctor. I'm not even going to dicuss gay marriage or slippery slopes with you because you're obviously an idiot.
*edit* maybe calling you an idiot is too harsh. But seriously frustrating you do not understand what slippery slope is and your comparison to gay marriage is just ridiculous.
