I merely stating that I understand fetal development and if a fetus is potentially viable then why should it not be delivered and attempted to be salvaged? Morally? I don't care what the law says, that's not the question at hand. Please give a moral arguement rather then citing legislation. I have yet to hear one from youStill can't type or spell like an intelligent being, OK I, I'll let that slide. I'm sure your former colleges and the medical community at large weep for you.
Applying the law removes the moral debate in your viable fetus scenario. Afraid to read the legislation because it won't support your scenario and position? It appears to me that you believe that in all pregnancies when there is a potentially viable fetus, the ability to choose should not be an option. Correct me if I'm wrong. To expanded this line of thought, do you want to remove choice from the mother and enforce continuation of the pregnancy until the fetus is viable? If you want the option of choice removed then band together enough others that hold your same moral position and pass legislation that will hold up in court.
Moral and morality is/are subjective. I will not argue morals with you. I don't believe that what you consider moral (which evidently includes lies) and what I consider moral are anywhere close to being the same. I believe that each individual has to determine what they consider moral. Their option to change what they consider moral is theirs and theirs alone. You are allowed to have your position and I mine. You do not get to enforce your deluded morals on another person. As far as I'm concerned my moral position is not open to debate. There is nothing that you can say, no fictitious scenario of killing that you dream up that can use to change my mind. My opinion of your moral position and argument to this point, infantile and uneducated.
If you continue to hold on to your medical delusion you might need to consider getting some mental health treatment.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
