Sorry for the chipmunkiness, but I had to shrink it, clipping is a hassle, and my editor only works in powers of 2.

  • Just to clarify, your assertion that personhood starts at fertilization is absolutely ridiculous, for several reasons.

    1. Fertilized eggs are naturally flushed from women regularly, without them knowing. They're not even miscarriages. Should we hold a funeral? Should the woman be investigated for murder?2. The morning-after pill will prevent a fertilized egg from implanting. Murder?

    3. Fertilized eggs are regularly discarded after IVF. Murder?

    4. If a fetus absorbs its twin in the womb, murder?

  • 1a: So? People die at all stages of development.

    1b: Yes, the morning after pill is immoral.

    2: Yes.

    3: No. Ever heard of automatism?

  • Plus, you didn't answer my first question. Should a woman be INVESTIGATED FOR MURDER if a fertilized egg is flushed from her body? Clearly she's a mass-murderer and should be barred from reproduction if this keeps happening.

  • No. That's just stupid.

  • I'm glad you're finally admitting that your position is stupid and unenforceable.

  • No, I;m explaining that there's a difference between spontaneous and induced abortions just like there's a difference between any natural death and any homicide.

  • Except most deaths are investigated. So you're saying that fertilized eggs are special persons who a) get to use somebody's else's body without their consent, which no other person gets to do, and b) get to bypass the traditional investigation usually associated with spontaneous death.

    You didn't answer my miscarriage question, either.

  • How is babby formed?

  • There's a difference between "inside" and "part of".

  • At least you're consistent in your woman-hate. What about rape? Do you support the rape exception?

    Recently a woman became pregnant and she had to go off her antipsychotic medication in order to bear the child. She went through withdrawal and tried to commit suicide. She survived the attempt but she miscarried. Now she's in jail for child abuse and murder. Justified?
