I am specifically referring to your disingenuous argument that women have abortions because they are afraid of dying in childbirth.So the reasoning to abort, impacts maternal morality? Don't think the New England journal of medicine agrees but okay.Yes, because that’s not why they are aborting their babies. It’s a disingenuous argument.True, does that impact in any way the potential risk of dying?No. I am saying that it is a bullshit argument to begin with because that’s not why women have abortions and that the low risk is proof that isn’t the reason women get abortions. Women get abortions because they don’t want to be burdened with raising a child. The vast majority of abortions are done for selfish reasons.It's not disingenuous, because it is de facto what you are demanding. You are saying that there is a percentage of risk of death that is sufficiently low, as to give you the right to demand other people to take that risk.I think your argument for justifying the ending of a human life is disingenuous for two reasons. One, it’s not why women have abortions. Two, the numbers don’t support the 100% death rate from abortions.
There are ~1,000,000 abortions in the US every year. You are literally trying to argue that 1,000,000 women have abortions each year because they are afraid of being one of the 260 women that die from childbirth.
That doesn’t make any sense especially since we both know the real reason is they don’t want to be burdened by having a child.
I’m actually surprised you haven’t tried to make the they are doing it for the good of the child argument yet.
