Killing A Newborn No Different Than An Abortion

And more hope is lost in the world. Unbelievable.

After reading the article, I thought about my newborn and how much he's meant to me. I teared up a little. How the hell can someone say a baby isn't a actual person?

The journal’s editor, Prof Julian Savulescu, director of the Oxford Uehiro Centre for Practical Ethics, said the article's authors had received death threats since publishing the article.

No ****. They're advocating murdering babies.
 
I think it would be ok to kill them, if they just waited until they are teenagers. By then, they're usually not that cute anymore, and let's face it, teenagers are asshat butt munches.

Buddy, you better watch your goddamn mouth....











Who am I kidding, teenagers are terrible
 
That is the problem with abortion arguments. They are simply not morally consistent. The "my body my choice" statement has nothing to do with the debate. Clearly we do not use dependency as threshold for killing someone in any other situation. It is unfortunate that pro-lifers tend to use religious arguments to justify their position, which completely devalues it in any secular discourse.

There is no consistent definition for "what is a person", and no convincing argument of why a fetus is fair game. I am about as big an atheist as it gets, but I do not think abortion is justified in most situations (it is in some though). I've had very serious discussions on the subject with intelligent and educated people, and it always leads to questions about why is it wrong to kill babies, or the elderly, and so on and so forth.
 
The way I see it is the fetus is a dependent life and a newborn is an independent life.

The fetus is dependent on the woman therefore it is her choice.

Personally I would never do it but I can't get pregnant so I will never be given that choice.

I do hate it when women use abortions as a form of birth control.
