GeronL: “Its pretty disgusting when being against killing babies is seen as extreme.”

I think that's stretching things. A one-celled zygote is a unique individual, the start of a new life, but most people probably wouldn't consider it the same as a baby. What saddens me about this loss is that pro-life forces overreached. I know a lot of people consider it an all or nothing issue. However, they could have radically restricted abortion if only they wouldn't have reached so far. Most people are simply not willing to declare use of the pill to be the moral equivalent of murder, even though the pill apparently causes some fertilized eggs to be rejected.

Every single human being on the face of the planet was once at that stage. And your rights are not superior to any human being who is currently at that stage.

There is nothing in there that would ban birth control.

You fell for the leftwing propaganda it sounds like.
