‘Her atheism is wrong but she gets almost everything else right.’
really...? how about this...
‘An embryo has no rights. Rights do not pertain to a potential, only to an actual being. A child cannot acquire any rights until it is born. The living take precedence over the not-yet-living (or the unborn).
Abortion is a moral rightwhich should be left to the sole discretion of the woman involved; morally, nothing other than her wish in the matter is to be considered. Who can conceivably have the right to dictate to her what disposition she is to make of the functions of her own body?”..’
Okay, she was wrong on abortion apparently. But if she were still alive, I’ll bet she would be susceptible to arguments based on the personhood of the unborn baby now that we know — thanks to science — that a fetus is a lot more like a person than a blob of tissue. She had an open, honorable mind and would grapple with contrary evidence, I think.
