It's a strawman in this discussion. I'm aware what Planned Parenthood has done, and they should be prosecuted for it, as should anyone else who does it. Insisting on this point makes me question if this is actually a good faith discussion. It's certainly not encouraging.
See now that makes me think you aren't even reading my replies. I've been pretty clear on what rights are in conflict on this issue. The question, as it was raised in Roe v. Wade, is at what point society is obligated to step in and override a woman's right to medical privacy and autonomy. If you think the right time for that is conception, I don't think you've thought it through very well. I think if you do you'll see what a dangerous precedent that would set, not just for the abortion issue, but for other issues as well--namely: vaccines.
Again, I see that you think a baby's right to be protected and cared for should begin at conception, but I don't. At least not as far as society and laws are concerned. I don't know how much more clear I can make it that I think Roe v. Wade represents a good compromise on the matter. As I've said several times already: I don't want to live in a world where viable babies are killed simply because they haven't exited the birth canal yet, but I also don't want to live in a world where we make what's happening in women's bodies our constant business the moment they become sexually active. I think there needs to be a window there where they maintain their privacy and autonomy and I think Roe v. Wade provides a good window.
It's not about the law. It's not about arrests. It's about your "feels". Remember?
You said you didn't want to live in a world where women can't conditionally have abortions.
You have the "feels" to care about women being inconvenienced but you don't have the "feels" to prevent body part sales, because YOU aren't discussing in good faith if you want to pretend that those two don't go hand in hand.
And that's a want you place above selling baby parts. What you're wishing for is a world where women could have early abortions but those aborted babies aren't sold for medical science or sacrificed to Moloch.
The heavy-hitting voices and machinery behind allowing abortions, even with restrictions, is going to be profit driven from sales from baby parts. That makes your desire for a world that allows conditional abortions but disallows sales of baby parts impossible, but you won't concede that point.
You're right. Bye.
