But How Can It Be A Crime? It's Just Choice!
So... The Prime Minister of India considers it a crime to abort unborn GIRLS. Interesting dilemma.

Abortion is a CHOICE, but aborting baby GIRLS is a CRIME. Nice.

Funny how people can rationalize morality isn't it.

I dont see how it could even be thought of as a law. In abortion your not killing anyone, the fetus is not legally alive. How can you kill something that isnt alive.

A heart beat is life. Do you know when your heart started being?

Ahhh. So you're a "Schiavo was alive" type of guy then...

Half her brain gone, and still you just look for a heart-beat.

I guess to a guy like you, that type of living is normal...

Nice attempted hijacking.

Why not defend why it's okay to abort un-born babies, so long as they're not un-born GIRL babies.

I'm awaiting your flip-flop moral-relativist explanation. You may begin jumping through hoops now.

Stay on topic there Houdini. This thread is about abortion. If you wish to talk about Schiavo, start a thread.

There is little doubt that the world in general is more liberal than it was 50 years ago and beyond. Conservatives are simply roadblocks on the path to an ever more progressive and liberal world. What a sad existence.

I don't see you having any problem with him taking threads on one thing and turning it into something completely unrelated...

1) You demanding other people stay on topic.
That is hilarious.

2) I am on topic. You gave a standard whereby the existence of a heart-beat defines "life".
I pointed out that standard is stupid.

3) Hey alias. If you're REALLY wanting to stay on topic...
Maybe you can explain to us WHEN the baby actually starts to have a heart-beat???
Because by your standard, morning after pill is clearly not murder.

Screw this. You'll never answer a simple question...
"By 12 weeks, the 2-1/2 inch fetus weighs 1-1/2 ounces. The heartbeat can now be heard by listening to the mother’s abdomen with a Doppler."
http://www.expectantmothersguide.com...etalgrowth.htm

So by your standard, abortion in the first trimester is okay, right?
