    Absolutely Parents who do not want to have a baby should not be forced to carry one to term. It ain’t some angel that came down and inhabited the womb that should be laminted as lost.

      “It ain’t some angel”

      But it’s a human, and we don’t find engaging in active killing of humans permissible do we?

      I also love that as a pretty open atheist, PC will constantly try to insinuate a religious motivation (even though most PL religious people don’t use the ensoulment argument either).

        It’s a mindless parasite that took up residence in my body without permission and at great risk to myself. It doesn’t have a right to use me as an incubator for nine months, it doesn’t have a right to cause irreversible changes in my body, and it doesn’t have a right to rip its way out of me at the end. It certainly doesn’t have a right to do all those things without even asking my permission first!

        Abortion is self defense.
