RE: The beginning and end of humanity — Are there incomplete humans?
no worries, Anj! Just do as you find convenient. Right now I'm away from home so I'm not able to give my full attention to people either.
Like those anecdotes, I still find a lot of stuff hard, like why would someone else be able to decide the fate of my body because of a little fetus's life? I don't intend to be heartless and I would certainly love the fetus as a mother loves the idea of a future child, but I certainly wouldn't give it priority over my own life.
But some people would rather not kill it than save me. I may be egotistical for my view but I'll hold it and defend my opinion till the end of times for as long as it will have power over people's decision to save or take my life.
I agree with you on that Sharon. People should have autonomy over their own bodies. Many of these anti-abortionists happen to be men who like telling women what they should/shouldn't do with their bodies. Pah!
Most abortions are done when it's just a cluster of cells. It can't feel it. Saying that, I think later abortions should be performed humanely so that the foetus can't feel it, obviously.
Oh, enjoy your trip away from home :D
