If you claim a baby begins right after conception, then yes. (Of course, by those standards, then by far the #1 babykiller on the planet is - the woman's uterus, Or God, if you prefer.) Completely beside the point Billvon and you know it. It's simply none of your business. Stop being a busybody. Is it anyone's business if we, as a community, decide to "off" your grandmother because she's totatally dependent now on someone else (you maybe) or is costing all of us way too much money? Is her life worth more than that? She may have already passed away (like mine)...however, work with me here. If her life is/was, why? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

"Are you saying society should just let him die?" "(off camera) YES!" You could take it to the extreme and there are examples where "not" providing care would be more humane, however, that's not what I'm talking about. Old people requre more care and are very expensive. Would you be ok with eliminating the ones who are "too much trouble." Or...are they people just like you and me and their lives are as precious as that newborn...and if so...what about that 38 weeker...or that 24 weeker (prior to delivery)?

billvon 3,080 #83 September 29, 2011 >In general? Correct. I am not OK with child pornography as most people define it. I am generally OK with some of the more absurd definitions, like a family picture that includes a six year old girl without a top on because it wasn't worth the fight to get her to put it on. That fits some definitions of "child pornography" but is a pretty silly example, one I don't much worry about. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If it doesn't hurt anyone (e.g. some cultures where it might be accepted) and everyone involved is ok with it. Would you still say (like me) that it's "evil?"

kallend 2,112 #89 September 29, 2011 Quote Are you ok with child pornography? (I am not to be clear) Did you mean "I am, not to be clear", "I am not, to be clear" or "I am not to be, clear?" Sticking your nose in a woman's uterus where it's none of your business seems pretty pornographic to me, but you seem to want to do it....

My wife's decisions with regard to the examples I provided are medical, not religious. So, if your wife developed a condition which greatly threatened her life during pregnancy, would you be ok with the decision to save her life at the cost of losing the pregnancy?
