Gallup: More Americans “Pro-Life” Than “Pro-Choice”

I'm glad you understand that reproduction is a special circumstance where two DNA's can inhabit the same body.

Is it not obvious? Whose blood flows through that fetus? Who breathes for the embryo? Who is umbilically linked with the embryo? Now, whose entire environment exists within its host and who is physically unable to exist without her? These are not philosphical questions.

I'm not a mother, but it happens all the time with them.

You continue to evade the point. Of course it is human, not a porpoise, that is not the question. But it is not a being with all the rights due a being until and unless it develops into one.

First trimester embryo's are not beings just because they can become one under the right circumstances. That circumstance is viability outside the womb. Before then, all rights and responsibilities concerning the mother are the mothers, exclusively.

That's my philosophy. We must agree to disagree on this. You aren't changing my mind any, although I do understand your position much better. I still think your religious beliefs are at the core of your opposition, but you have crafted a secular viewpoint that I can grasp.

 

So, when a miscarriage happens, . . . did God commit murder?
