Don’t insult me by accusing me of not having principles because I don’t agree with your position on abortion.
That type of attitude has fostered religious extremism. I don’t believe in abortion on demand, especially mid and late term abortions, but I don’t object to limited abortions.
In my opinion, going back to making criminals of women that choose abortion is not good policy. Better policy is to facilitate adoption, discourage abortion with better education.

You misunderstood his question. If I understood correctly, he asked which principle would you die for?

Well?

You're right, having no regard for the sanctity of life IS a principle.

That type of attitude has fostered religious extremism.

You mean the religious extremism of secularism and their slaughter of over 3500 infants every day in the United States?

I don’t believe in abortion on demand, especially mid and late term abortions, but I don’t object to limited abortions.

So, you're okay with killing babies at 90 days, but after that it should stop?

In my opinion, going back to making criminals of women that choose abortion is not good policy.

Who is talking about making women who have abortions criminals? This must be a new pro-abortion talking point because I don't remember seeing until a couple months ago.

Better policy is to facilitate adoption, discourage abortion with better education.

American women are better educated that any women in any nation at any time in history, they had 3500 babies murdered YESTERDAY.

I asked you whether you had any CORE principles. I suspect that you, like most people, do have plenty of principles, but the questions is whether or not you are willing to sacrifice those principles for political expediency? If they are CORE principles, then you would not be willing to sacrifice them.

I don’t believe in abortion on demand, especially mid and late term abortions, but I don’t object to limited abortions.

Why? If the thing being aborted is not a human being, then why would you care if it is removed from the womb? If it were just a glob of tissue, then nobody would care if it were removed. The fact that you don't believe in "abortion on demand" suggests to me that you believe that there is a human being in the womb, and if that is true, then abortion is murder.

In my opinion, going back to making criminals of women that choose abortion is not good policy.

They never made criminals out of the women. They made criminals out of the doctors.

Better policy is to facilitate adoption, discourage abortion with better education.

What would we teach? That fetuses are not human beings or that they are human beings?

If the former, then why should we discourage abortion at all?

If the latter, then why should we permit abortion at all?
