I’m entitled to reach my own conclusion about when a life begins and I conclude that a single fertilized cell is alive only in the sense that it is able add more cells to itself. Much beyond a few cells, though (I can’t say exactly where) it becomes an itty bitty human being whose killing is a sin.

So, is this your way of saying that it's "above your pay grade"?

A sin, yes, but should these killings be unlawful? I’m inclined to say yes because sanctioned abortion (not to mention subsidized abortion) is probably not good for the moral health of the society.

Why don't you say that abortion should be "safe and legal and rare" because that certainly seems to be your attitude.

“is this your way of saying that it’s “above your pay grade?”

We can beat this subject to death like it’s been beaten a thousand times before.

The last few posts are my conclusions at this time. It’s above my pay grade in that I’m not qualified tell others what their conclusions should be.

Abortion should be medically safe. Our government should not make it totally illegal and should not subsidize it. It should be rare.

Next question, please.
