This procedure, cannot be compared in any way to a fertilized egg inside the womb, that is terminated through abortion. To believe otherwise is to completely ignore the reason for the procedure.

Without getting into pinhead mental exercises regarding this I reject the idea that anyone ought to be castigated or caused to feel shame for an act of killing because a fertilized egg does not take.

In fact I reject the idea that abortion itself is murder. That idea alone is what pro-choice folks fear most about pro-lifers and what perpetuates the abortion debate when it should have been resolved years ago.

The over the top, unbending, unchristian attitude of many pro-lifers does nothing to educate the public that the overwhelming majority of abortions are for financial and cosmetic reasons, and less than 1 percentage point relate in any way to rape incest or health of the mother! Some Mother who would knowingly end a pregnancy for money or IOW selfish reasons.

The State of SD made significant progress in the debate by doing a state wide study of abortions. The results of the study were made available to all parties.

The fact that some chose to ignore the study, and vote their emotions only proves that to some the scare tactics and leftist talking points though lies and deception, got more press than the facts in the study.

Can we say mainstream media bias. I believe the vote was basically 60/40 against. Not bad for the first state out of the blocks to end something that is a blight on the nation and it’s people. The IVF debate pales in comparison and my point is, there is no comparison.

So, you are pro-death. The fact that abortion is murder is the crux of the debate between the pro-life and the pro-death groups.

Women can get pregnant and never know because for some reason the embryo didn’t implant. IVF isn’t killing a baby if it doesn’t take. Abortion and disposing of the ones not selected is killing a baby though.

If the embryos are humans then there is no goodness authority to make such a specious differentiation as you seek to promote.

Incidentally, once fertilization has occurred, there is no longer an egg, so try using correct terminology if you’re going to defend this evil.
