    Nope! I mean enslaving - look at the latest Texas law - no exceptions for rape or incest. So what we will probably see is the same as what happened in Ireland where women - often underage women desperate for an abortion because of the mental trauma associated with the conception are either tied to a bed or institutionalised in a mental health facility and forced to give birth

    All of which is tragic, but none of which is the responsibility of the unborn child. Yet that is the one who is killed in an abortion

    What “unborn child”? It is a potential maybe could be only.

    would you put the rights of a potential person over those of an actual person and at what point does the potential persons rights usurp those of the actual person?

    Democrats wrote a bill stating exactly that. You pretend to not notice who wrote the bill?

    But under what circumstances, other than being in the wilderness with a woman in obstructed labour, would you actually kill a foetus during labour?

    So, what is a mother's responsibility for the baby growing inside her womb? to kill it?

    Miscarried naturally. Dead, or like the baby with 76 chromosomes not 46 - well you can decide wether that counts or not

    but internationally the “rights” of the foetus rarely trump those of the mother except in places like Venezuela where women who have had miscarriages have been incarcerated for extended periods of time.

    My objection to abortion is not a legal objection, it's a moral objection.

    The point is it's HER responsibility...not anyone else's and certainly not yours.

    NO one indicated it is her responsibility to kill it...... but it is her responsibility to DECIDE if she wants it or not.

    Could you show where anyone indicated a human ZEF would be a tomato? No, I didn't think so....looks like a "desperation red herring" to me....:)


    AGAIN, what rights do you want a ZEF to have that do not interfere with the rights of the woman it's in?????

    I didn't say the responsibility was mine. Don't know where you got that. I'm just stating my opinion, this is a forum for discussion you know.

    The baby in the womb has a God-given right to life.

    IF one wants abortion banned one indicates they want responsibility for women's pregnancies.

    NOW, can you address what also was in my post ""NO one indicated it is her responsibility to kill it...... but it is her responsibility to DECIDE if she wants it or not.""


    ....or continue to dodge.

    No, it doesn't...your "god" doesn't rule. ( and your god has no problem with killing ZEFs and/or children so best leave him out, he isn't relevant)

    So you are FOR women having a right to their own bodies and the right to have an abortion.

    So you should be very annoyed with the almighty then because if you consider a conceptus as the start of personhood l.e. A “child” then God is the most prolific abortionist around

    I'm for government staying out of our lives, having only enough power to simply maintain civil society. Maximum individual freedoms, minimum government power.
