Ok, I'll walk you through it.

the “Life of the mother” or the baby never happens in this day and age. A big red herring. Exactly. Dr. Ron Paul says he has never seen such a case in all his years of practice.

See the above statement? See the key words and phrases? Never happens

No leeway there. It obviously does happen, hence my example.

This is twice now where you've taken exception to me correcting absolutist nonsense. When someone declares without a equivocation that no one ever, or something never...it had better be cut and dried, or the entire argument is lost. Obviously, in both cases where you've responded to my replies, sometimes people do, and sometimes it does happen. That would preclude the evers and nevers. Nuff said.

Fine. Then please refrain from using the phrase "you guys".

Not all absolutism is nonsense though. The USSC Roe v. Wade decision was terrible, absolutely, on both the legal and moral fronts.

In this case the mother chose to put her life at risk attempting to protect her child.

We have fighting men and women make similar choices all the time. We call them heroes.

Nuff said.
