My body my choice....We both know that this applies only to a woman's a decision to have relations with someone.

The slogan "My body my choice" was the result of a paid PR group focus group study, (Per Dr Berenstein co founder of Naral.) It is emotional and resonates with women. The problem is that it is fundamentally untrue. A woman is not aborting herself or removing a part of herself.

We use genetics to establish an individual's identity in legal proceedings. The child is NOT genetically identical to the mother, or the father, it is a combination of both of their genes, it is separate from and Different, another persons body. (Another way to put this is that women do not suddenly grow extra fingers, arms and legs inside of them, or start to run different blood types or have a part of their body that is a different sex.) The abortion is practiced on a person distinct from the woman, so not her body.

To the statement: "And using a *person’s body* without their consent is rape." (very loose leftist definition) The rejoinder is: " And killing a person with or without their consent is still murder.

I hope that God blesses your discussions Daniel!

Valid points, and yet not matter who much the posters perverse reasoning was exposed, the women was so elevated that she was like homeowner killing a thief who was using her home and eating her food.
