when He sends a babyReminds me of an old joke
A doctor is sent to a remote fishing village that has not been contacted by modern society.
He explains to a woman that it is not spirits or gods that made her pregnant, it happens when a husband and wife “sleep” together.
She replies: “Oh but that’s not true. My husband has been out to sea for more than a year and I still got pregnant”
In France, the killing of a fœtus is not an homicide.
The Court of Cassation, the highest French court for civil and penal law, decided that in 2001, in its most solennel formation.
The fœtus had been killed in a car accident and the mother wanted that the man responsable of the accident be condemned for homicide.
To sum up the case, the question asked was : " Can a no born child be the subject of an homicide? "
The judge has accepted the idea that the death of the fœtus opens a right to a compensation for the mother, and for the father.
French law allows a fœtus to inherit, and he is protected, but from a penal point of view, he is not a person.
The attorney general had another view.
You have no standing in this whatsoever, nor does any male. This is a female issue and as long as the majority of females are in favor of choice then that should be the law. This is not a democratic subject where all persons are equally endowed.
Only females are endowed with the ability to procreate. Only females have the right to decide what is morally right in this particular issue.
Men, stay the hell out of a woman’s womb, unless you want them to be able to force you to cut off your testicles.
I disagree, but this is a black or white issue so it’s pointless to debate.
Dang straight it’s black and white issue.
Here’s black and white for you: “A mother’s life is more important than the fetus’s life!”
Another black and white situation: “A woman has the right to sovereignty over her own body and the moral/ethical right to self defense and protecting her own well being!!!”
Another black and white situation is that the Abortion issue has been nothing more than a political strategy
After all even in emergency situations where you might need to act to save someone’s life - the first priority is to protect yourself before jumping in and lending aid. Not withstanding the frantic hero running into a burning building without training or protection, who only has itself to blame for becoming another victim for others to save, not matter how noble original intentions.

There is no such thing as “irreducible complexity”. Adam was most certainly born from the womb of a female hominid, who was the common ancestor to all Homininae.
Homininae
Homininae (/hɒmɪˈnaɪniː/), also called “African hominids” or “African apes”, is a subfamily of Hominidae.[1][2] It includes two tribes, with their extant as well as extinct species:
- the tribe Hominini (with the genus Homo including modern humans and numerous extinct species; the subtribe Australopithecina, comprising at least two extinct genera; and the subtribe Panina, represented only by the genus Pan, which includes chimpanzees and bonobos)―and
- the tribe Gorillini (gorillas). Alternatively, the genus Pan is sometimes considered to belong to its own third tribe, Panini. Homininae comprises all hominids that arose after orangutans (subfamily Ponginae) split from the line of great apes.
The Homininae cladogram has three main branches, which lead to gorillas (through the tribe Gorillini), and to humans and chimpanzees via the tribe Hominini and subtribes Hominina and Panina (see the evolutionary tree below).
There are two living species of Panina (chimpanzees and bonobos) and two living species of gorillas, but only one extant human species. Traces of extinct Homo species, including Homo floresiensis and Homo denisova, have been found with dates as recent as 40,000 years ago. Organisms in this subfamily are described as hominine or hominines (not to be confused with the terms hominins or hominini).
It’s not just a Black and white thing. It’s also about controlling women.
