What's this?

You're reaching in a really bad way here, Hooda.

For starters, it seems that only the most extreme religious fanatics equate an early stage abortion with the death of an actual living, breathing, thinking, feeling child. You're being dishonest by trying to. For example, the last I checked, there was near universal support for abortions in cases of rape or incest...even among so-called evangelicals. The same goes for abortions in cases where the mother's health is threatened or the fetus has an incurable disease or deformity.

Do you think there is universal support for an incest or rape victim killing the 2 year old child she bore as a result of that horrible incident? Of course not. Do you think there is universal support for euthanizing children with deformities or genetic diseases? Of course not. That would be despicable and barbaric and we all know it.

Must mean that anyone remotely intellectually honest who doesn't believe that a soul comes down from heaven the second sperm meets egg generally agrees that abortion and murder are different. Of course, the later you get in the pregnancy the fuzzier that line becomes and the harder it is to determine. But I don't think Planned Parenthood is out there performing 9-month abortions unless there is a bona fide health emergency that requires it.

So really man, what are you talking about here? There is no comparison between that and someone shooting up a school with an AR-15. Not to mention about 1% of what PP does is performing abortions.
