Why does it matter? Personhood is a moot issue!!! I wish there was a way that the zef could grow outside the mother but as far as I know, there isn't and the only way to end the pregnancy is destruction of it. But nevertheless pregnancy does cause more harm than good to a persons body and you can't look at your saggy boobs and stretch marks and tell me it does your body any good because it doesn't and the law is supposed to protect it's born people, individuals and the zef is not covered by that protection. For some people pregnancy itself can cause liver failure and have you ever heard of gestational diabetes and preeclampsia? They can be deadly and childbirth is not a cureall for it.

Actually I do want to end the human race but that is something in the back of my mind and won't enforce it upon anyone.. Look lilblaze.. What I am trying to say here is that if people can handle pregnancy and love it.. Wonderful for them.. I am happy for them.. There are times I want to pregnant.. (hanging around too many preggo sites.. It's rubbing off on me.. Lol) but people should not be forced to be pregnant because it could harm you.. Not saying no one should. Take smoking for example.. If someone wants to smoke and risk lung cancer.. Fine for them but because of that risk of lung cancer should someone be forced to do it? I am not trying to be rude.. I am just explaining my view here. Do you understand where I am coming from?

hey.. I said that was in the back of my mind, not something I think about everyday..It's hard to explain.. Btw.. Is that all your going to respond to? I tried to present a debate here and all you do is take the one sentence that you can use for an insult! I was really calm in writing that and trying to discuss something with you and all you do is take a sentence and insult me with it? Your useless... I will no longer even bother with you anymore.. You disgust me.. Complain about insults yet you don't want a debate.

Btw.. I can't consciously (sp?) control my thoughts and feelings.. I feel what I feel and I can't help that. If people could do that.. There would be no need for paxil and prozac so stop being so judgmental.. I can't control how I feel about anything.. I wish I could so you are insulting me for something beyond my control!

Why don't you all just stick to what we're talking about here and mind your business about my mental health.. It's none of your concern and stop trying to tell me to seek help. If all you want to do is take things that I tell you and insult me with it.. Than go back to grade school.

If you have a desire to end the human race (in the back of your mind) then that is part of where you are coming from. Maybe we all can't understand what that is like.

I don't think comparing choosing to smoke (which is always detrimental) to being pregnant (not detrimental for the majority of cases) is not a very good analogy.

Being "forced" to smoke (which always causes damage) as opposed to being "forced" to carry a human being to term so they can continue to live is fairly different.

So are you coming from the point of view that it doesn't matter whether we are killing human beings/persons/whatever so long as the woman has the protected "right" to c-h-o-o-s-e to kill her offspring prior to birth? And this principle is justified by possible bad scenarios that may occur?
