Does that change after the child is born? I've yet to see an infant survive without someone providing parenting, usually the mother if no one else. Why does it get its rights then? This sounds very arbitrary and convenient to me. You'll have to do better than that.

Actually I don't.

I came into this thread with my mind already made up. I assume you did as well. There is nothing you can say that will convince me to remove a human's freedom to choose to murder. That is what I believe.

Why is the freedom of choice to murder so frightening to you? Why do you want to tell strangers what they can and cannot do? Do you like being told what to do? Who should decide what is right and what is wrong? God? If so, which God?

I am free to choose to murder what I know to be right for myself. And if the choice is to murder , so be it. But if the choice is Life, we're going to raise that life to the best of our abilities.

I altered the above to show how Monolithium's post might sound to someone who is pro life.

Pro-Choice does not mean Pro-Abortion. It means I am for Choice.

but it must be more than that, in order to be pro choice you either must believe that the fetus does not have the same right to live as you or I do, or you must believe that people have the right to murder.
