“If you are in favor of forcing by law a mother to bear the child of her rapist without her consent, then you are no better than her rapist. Stop playing word games. No sane person is in favor of the purposeful killing of infants.”

Chris, that is a harsh and deeply wrong judgment. Assuming you are sane, you are advocating the killing of a baby in these narrow circumstances, rape of the mom.

You need to face the moral choice you are making here—the baby’s life or the mom-to-be being forced to bear a rapist’s child. You can’t hide it behind buzzwords—choice, keep you hands off, etc. It’s a real moral decision that has to be made and its a really bad choice that no sane person would want to make. But occasionally it has to be made. Kill the baby or not?

You sound foolish when you call people “rapists” and “nazi’s” for saving the baby’s life.

No more foolish than those calling me a nazi for refusing to force a mother to bear the child of her rapist.

Yes, I am choosing the mother’s rights over the baby’s rights.

The mother’s rights were violated first by the rapist. The baby’s rights were created without her consent as a result of the original violation. The baby’s rights do not supercede hers until she consents to bear the child, so get her consent. Convince her to bear it and raise it or adopt it. But if you can’t get her consent, then you are not justified to force her to do as you will.

You cannot control everything everyone does, even if you do not agree with their actions, and even if you feel justified in attempting to control such. You can’t.

Forcing a woman to bear the child of her rapist is abhorrent.
