I naively thought it would inspire dialogs like this one about when personhood begins. Hopefully, from that, a national consensus would form.

Should personhood actually be based on "consensus"?

Instead, the country descended into mindless name-calling and screaming matches.

I'm not sure I follow you.

Do you actually expect civility from people who kill an innocent baby every 24 seconds?

—Not at all, but consensus is needed to change laws that are imposed on us.

“I’m not sure I follow you.

I was a kid at the time, and I assumed nothing but good intentions on the part of our leadership. Hopefully, soon, their lack of civility will work against them. A consensus seems to be hardening against the idea that a fetus is just an optional mass of protoplasm.
