right dio - if the baby can live - it is killing......


I wouldnt say killing or murder. also, what if it could technically be kept alive, but nobody wants it and not every hospital will be able to handle such a young baby.

Why wouldn't the abortion be killing or murder?

It might be a little unfair, but lets reset this argument into the framework of Sorites Heaps Paradox.

You would agree that the abortion of a baby 5 minutes after its birth would be wrong, wouldn't you. So why wouldn't it be wrong 5 minutes before its birth? If not 5, then what about 10?

At some point, you would need a working definition of life, and death, even if it seems somewhat arbitrary to determine if killing a fetus is justified or not.

Dude, I thought you were a spambot for like a week. You posted like a spambot. You failed the Turing test.
