    :) Your usual quibbling to avoid those inconvenient questions ...so obvious :)

    chris155au :""Because it is conceived through a heineous crime."""

    How does that affect, taint, change, or make it different from any other fetus?

    HOW
    does that "taint" the fetus?
    Does it have a Scarlet Letter "R" on it's forehead?
    Is it non-human?
    Is it malformed somehow?
    Is it possessed by the devil ? :)

    I never said anything different....and before you go on hairsplitting definitions to avoid the issue a born person is A human being, an unborn human is human .

    How is choosing an abortion after a forced pregnancy not a matter of self-determination of a human being over her own body?.

    Okay, so there's human being, and human. So what is the significance of the addition of "being?"

    SHE is not DOING anything. Again, some doctor, usually a man, is digging around inside of her. She has absolutely ZERO control in that situation.

    I would say that it is, but I think of "bodily autonomy" as something different to that. Other than abortion, in what other context do you use the term "bodily autonomy?"

    The unborn have rights, although lefties don't agree.

    No one has the right to FORCE another to give them a heart or kidney or a blood transfusion to sustain their life.

    That is the definition of bodily autonomy and it seems you do not know what you are arguing against.
    You have a right not to be vaccinated because of bodily autonomy but society has a right to sanction you in the name of group safety.
    Do you agree with everything right-wingers think or just most of it?

    As if you haven't had that explained to you before !


    ...before you go on hairsplitting definitions to avoid the issue a born person is A human being, an unborn human is human .
    :) Guess you're still trying to avoid the issue...:)


    Parts of a human are human(adjective) ...like a fetus.

    A human BEING (noun) is one who has been born , "is".

    Now you can go on one of your dodges with "what's the definition of this, What's the definition of that?"...but you will look foolish since people know what those words mean...and don't need them explained..

    No, that is YOUR understanding of "bodily autonomy." There is no formalised definition for the term.

    Yes, but NOT being vaccinated is something that is NOT happening to your body. Abortion is something that IS happening to your body. So then, it's apples and oranges.

    Fetuses "FORCE?" What choice do they have? Can they choose something else other than use the woman's body?

    Yeah, she made that choice, but after that choice, then the abortion happens, which she is not in control of.

    Gugga duh, I wasn't referring to the fetus in that sentence..... BUT to address your statement, the fetus does not have a choice, why should they? HOW could they?

    It seemed clear that you were comparing people forcing someone to give them their heart or kidney to a fetus using their mother's body. No?

    Exactly. So not the same as a person forcing someone to give them their heart or kidney.
