You beat me to it! Takes a heck of a lot more than a sperm to be a dad.

Not all sperm donors are fathers, but all fathers, save those by adoption, are sperm donors. Speaking of him as "becoming" a father at some point after the child is already conceived is as nonsensical as the presumption that the preborn do not "become human" until some arbitrary point after the beginning of their existence.

I say again, the issue is not whether or not he is a father yet. It is is incontrovertible that he is ontologically the father of his child. The only issue is whether or not he will be a good father.

I know Roe v. Wade and the culture of death has worked its utmost to destroy this fundamental identity between fathers and their children, but I refuse to succumb to it.

Cordially,
