In your ghoulish wisdom, you offered, "I really do think this way. ... It's like you imagine the fetus to be a person with a rational, conscious mind aware of its own destruction." No, and that is typical of you dehumanizing ghouls, you try to define what it is that pro-lifers are speaking out to protect, as if your definition (which is nothing but your arbitrary application of when the individual alive human being is of worth sufficient for you to grant it the right to life). What a piece of work you are, arbitrarily deciding that only thinking beings have worth such that they deserve the unalienable right to the life they are already living! [I sure hope you have nothing to do with caring for your elderly and infirm grandparents or parents, cause your beliefs are a killer!]
Then you go on to assert, "I know the argument is that these are "living" humans, yes, so is a every other species' unborn fetus, eggs, etc. Why not the exact same sensitivity over killing nests of wasps?" And with that piece of rhetorical shock spittle you expose your self as having no more value for unborn humans than for unborn goats. Not at all surprising that you are so dead of heart, but it is surprising that you would be so open about it! [Is Peter Singer your demigod hero?]
You must find FR uncomfortable, what with these ad hom attacks like I've throwing at you ... perhaps your fellow ghouls at the DU or Moveon.org would be more worshipful of your soulless crap, maybe you could even get the 'christians for Dean' to embrace you since they prove to have no discernment either.
I make a policy on FreeRepublic to never answer an ad hominem attack. It's an arbitrary form of argumentation which does not deserve serious answer. But I'll tell you one bit of information. I have been a Freeper since early 1998.
