    And the Supreme Court did the same thing…did not consult anyone else…including what science says about life.

    What science should they have consulted and how do you know that they did not?

    Indeed. Saying that human persons have the same value as a few embryonic stem cells is devaluing for all persons. We are far more than that.

    Do you condone forcing a woman to give birth if her health or life is at risk? If there is a fetal abnormality incompatible with life?

    ENTRAPMENT!!

    As Cady has said - if the foetus has a life limiting abnormality then why continue the pregnancy?

    I agree with the previous poster. ITS A TRAP!

    Not only was Cady speaking of a single celled zygote, but arguing that abortion should be the woman's choice does not necessitate condoning abortion in any and all cases.

    First of all you have to ask yourself why a woman would have an abortion after 35 weeks gestation and why a surgeon would agree to perform an abortion at that stage.

    After you've thought about it, you will say yes if you are truly pro choice.
