You have specified the lines you have drawn in your sand. But you have assumed very much-- starting with the value of human life. But this is a religious idea-- life is not intrinsically valuable, even human life. There are plenty of people whose lives I see little value in, some of them adults, and I wouldn't mind much if the shitty memories and shitty ideas that lead to their shitty behavior were erased from the Earth. If that shitty behavior is directed toward me or my family, then I will take steps of my own to make that disregard for those lives a reality in practice.
What is it about a baby-- particularly the baby of an uneducated, single 14 year-old, that shows so much promise that you think it needs to be extended the same protections that you and I enjoy?
