Seductive and sweet sounding, and hoping that people who tend to oppose abortion have heard the "abortion is murder" line so many times that it plucks the same emotional chord in the breasts of people. Ideally, you seek to turn ordinary and fervent Right to Lifers into snipers and clinic bombers.

Actually, I want no such thing.

As I've said several times on this thread, I want somebody to give me a convincving argument why Hill was wrong, given the assumptions of human rights and the humanity of the fetus that form the rhetorical plinth of the Pro Life movement.

I've seen no such argument. Indeed, I've seen no response other than the very appeals to emotion that you would decry in me.

I say yet again: let's drop the emotions, take a step back and look at the thing with cold, hard logic. I want to be convinced that Hill was wrong. Believe me, I really do.

I hope to hear your reasoned response.

What you want you obviously have not been able to find here.Perhaps another forum might be able to address your needs with more intelligence,cold hard logic and lack of emotion.Somewhere out there surely you may find your answer.I hope you can find that special someone.

If a person sees abortion as an only abhorrently immoral practice done in ignorance of a higher natural law, then Hill was wrong. This would reflect the view of most mainline Right to Life folks. A much smaller subset would think that it is deliberate defiance of that natural law - and those would be the folks that think Hill was right.
