Slouching toward Medicare
...The sad thing in this debate is that everyone is one the same side. No one gets a blast out of women having abortions: not the women, not you and not me.
I beg to differ. You and I are not on the same side of this argument.
I am pro-life and that means I fully buy-into the proposition that ALL men are CREATED equal.
And you dont because, otherwise, you would be on this thread advocating for the unalienable rights of ALL people (including those created but not yet born).
And we're right back to what I say, the reason why people want pro-life legislation is so they can shove their religion down everyone elses throats.
Religion? Where did I mention religion? Are you taking about the word created?
If you are, you are the one bringing religion into the debate.
The words I chose were from Lincolns Gettysburg Address and I chose them because they speak directly to the civil rights issue surrounding treating people as property to be disposed of at the whim of somebody else.
As far as religion goes, I have a personal rule about posting on an abortion thread and that is I will not bring religion or religious views into the argument.
So I will thank you in advance to stick to the human rights, scientific and medical arguments when debating me on this topic and to please keep your religious views (and your views about religious people) out of it.
