So, a 32-cell blastula is a full-on human being, but the woman that it's parasitizing is what? A beast of Burden? If a woman's body isn't her own property, then exactly whose property is she?

If you owned your body, then why aren't you allowed to sell a kidney for instance? You can sell anything else you own.

Makes more sense to consider the conceptus part of the woman until parturition, given that the placenta can turn cancerous and metastasize to other parts of the woman's body.

Yawl know Mittens has changed his position on abortion, right? What makes you think he won't change it again if elected?

"Well, every molecule of its body, except for the original sperm, of course, was provided by her - isn't that pretty much the definition of "parasite?"

Other libs have tried calling a fetus a parasite before. Do you know the definition of a parasite? It's a different SPECIES from its host!

...choice- at least 10% of married American women lie about her child’s paternity, thereby denying their husbands' vicarious immortality; and (e) A man's child, a woman's choice- if the father wants said child, father still has no rights because said child is solely the “property” of the mother.

Hence, "regressive" uppity males (politicians, taxpayers and husbands/partners) need to be constantly reminded by feminist pundits that they are genetic donors at best and ambulatory wallets at worst w/ no reproductive rights whatsoever. I beg to differ.

We are told ad nauseum: "A woman's body, a woman's choice". Through the Roe v. Wade decision, women have the unilateral right to opt out of parenthood without the input of their partners, resulting in 30% (1.4M) of all children conceived yearly being aborted for pure convenience. Reality: (a) A man's body, a woman's choice- American Society sees men as “genetic donors” at best and ambulatory wallets at worst; (b) A man's income, a woman's choice- a woman can, with impunity, lie about her fertility or use of birth control and turn a man into a court-ordered indentured servant for at least 18 years; (c) A man's reproductive options, a woman's choice- men have no reproductive options, only responsibilities; (d) A man's future, a woman's...

If the unborn's body isn't her own property, then exactly whose property is she?
If the unborn is a human being, then she is entitled to all the human rights as her mother.
Human rights protect all humans, not just those outside the womb.

SO, you were a parasite on your mother? Sounds like you are a parasite on society....maybe she should have been pro choice in your case... At the end of the day, the 2 cells that started it all result in a human baby ergo he/she is entitled to the full protection of the laws that govedrn YOU and the rest of us...only a fool would argue otherwise and you support a fool and a murderer.

Babies are not property either, rich. 'Nor are they parasites. Except perhaps in your case.

Luke 1:44 ESV

For behold, when the sound of your greeting came to my ears, the baby in my womb leaped for joy. (John the Baptist was already John the Baptist IN THE WOMB. His life had been planned. Of course, he could have refused but didn't)



Look who's not getting it straight. The athiest. Big surprise there.

9 months. Thats all it takes to give the baby a chance.
Do you support women's "right to know" legislation? Or do you go along with planned parenthoods philosophy that the LESS a woman knows about her choice the better?
If you REALLY are for the "my body my choice" philosophy I guess you want to legalize drugs, prostitution and organ selling. My body my choice right?
At least you don't yammer on about "viability".

Again, if a woman's body and its contents aren't her own property, then will somebody please tell me exactly whose property she is?

And anyway, according to Genesis 2:7, http://bible.cc/genesis/2-7.htm , it becomes a livinb being when it breathes the Breath os Life, so if it's not breathing, it's not a separate living being. So if you're going to Bible-thump, at least get it straight.

Yes the woman has a choice! She can keep her legs closed! Once she has made the choice to have sex without taking proper precautions against pregnancy her choice has a consequence. The baby does not deserve the death penalty for the woman's bad choices.
Much puzzling behavior by Barack Obama falls into place when we go behind the image that he projects ("Obama 1") to the factual reality of the man's whole life and thrust ("Obama 2").

Obama himself is well aware of the nature and importance of his image. In his own words, "I serve as a blank screen on which people of vastly different political stripes project their own views." An 18th century philosopher put the matter bluntly: "When I speak, I put on a mask. When I act, I am forced to take it off."

Many of Barack Obama's actions as President of the...
