Who says every pregnant woman has "given permission for that situation to develop and approves of it?"Ok, so you missed my point here, but I'm more dignified than to insult you for it. That you approve of the situation going in does not deprive you of the right to change your mind at any point. Yes it does. I invite you into my car, decide on a moment's notice I don't want you in my car anymore, and so kill you because it's faster and safer than asking you to step out. Sound ok to you? Yes, I know, the mom can't ask the fetus to step out. Ok, so what if the person in my car can't understand me, and is too big to be pushed out? The car analogy does work because you're turning the human body into a commodity of ownership. The woman "owns" her body (just another way of phrasing bodily autonomy). As soon as you begin to speak in those terms, all analogies of ownership are on the table. The cat embryo ruse does not assist your argument. But thanks. BTW, come down from another planet and look at a picture of a newborn baby and then that same person in their 80s or 90s. Would you think they are the same species, let alone the same person? |
