@_I: a non religious pro choice speech: Religion, freedom, decency, etc. are all philosophies. They aren't survival imperative and in extreme cases are suspended. The crux of the issue is wether a fetus is human. Into the 1980's the main stream medical belief was babies felt no pain, they would operate on infants without anesthesia. Into the 20th century western medicine believed many races didn't perceive pain or the world as whites could. Pro lifers believe it's no more right to kill a fetus than an adult. It's an ethics argument. lifes practical value is in its potential. What you are at a moment is irrelevant. A criminal can become a pillar of society, a ward of the system can become productive. Otherwise we could simply kill "undesirables" for practical reasons Only morals stop us. Would a severely mentally infirmed person even be cognizant if you killed them? Wouldn't it unburden us? I'm pro choice by the way, but we have an orange POTUS because we didn't see the other pov.
