[QUOTE]Originally posted by Jason Abbadon: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Cartman: [qb] The reasoning is different in that yours involves a [i]person[/i] not of your responsibility and NIH's (presumably) an [i]embryo[/i] that would be. [/qb][/QUOTE]A bettervcomparison might be that youo develop a tumor that you want extracted, but that some religous group decides should stay and possibly kill you....and then they take away your right to have the tumor removed. Yes, it's disturbing and offensive to think of a potential human life that way, but most pro-lifers conviently overlook that having a child is a real medical condition with very real risks to a mother's health. I hear "it was her [b]fault[/b] for getting peganant so she is responsible", but do you really want motherhood to be a state-forced punishment for promisquity? Most unwanted pregnantcies are more than just the supposed "inconvience" of having a child- there's huge economic strain involved (only fo the mother- a father can literally deny everything and walk away from his responsibility in most cases). So you get a woman forced into motherhood, with zero money and no prospects for the future othre than raising a child she never wanted... There's enough child abuse cases and instances of children living so far below the poverty line they cant get nourishment[i] already[/i], thanks. Before the government can even [i]think[/i] of forcing a child to term, they need to insure that child and his mother's future- medical coverage, food, housing, schooling and job training (or at least placement) for the mother....and of course, make certain the child is loved and cared for at least a few hours a day (emotional development is as importnamt as physical). So: once we all live in that Star Trek untopan society, we can safely pass laws limiting a woman's right to decide what to do with her body/baby/burden. [/QB][/QUOTE]
