Then a newborn anything has no rights - because, as a parent of 3 grown kids - I can PROMISE you that a newborn CANNOT survive on its own.

The pro-abortion arguments are circular and self-serving, but they simply don't hold water.

You know darn well that the President of this Country is not going to return any calls you make or emails that you send to him.

I you mis understand my use of survive... I mean life functions. The life functions of a newborn are self-sustaining. As much as yours and mine are. I would argue that nothing can survive on it's own. Everything is dependent on everything else. All life is connected my friend.

I'm not misunderstanding it. I believe it to be a philosophical and ethical non sequitur.

Our 2nd son was born 6-weeks early. But we could have gone in the day before he was born and had a late-term abortion.

How do you justify and reconcile that?
