I wanna get how conservatives work, because this is how I'm seeing all this:

Government can't tax me and take my money to fund hospitals and healthcare to heal even the idiots of the land who don't deserve it. They can't take our money to fund research of technologies which may lead to dead ends. They can't control us or businesses and we should have our rights to our money and work and no one else should matter. However, government CAN take our money to fund control over our own bodies?

That's because we don't think it's your body.  I would suppose you have no problem with he government making it illegal to kill your already-born children, so you should see that, if the unborn are indeed humans, they should have such rights as the born. 

 

 

But they aren't my already-born children. They are a lump of nerveless, unresponsive (except for the most basic stimulus response, which I believe even an amoeba has) cells.

 

This is the argument you should be using.  Not that we're controlling your body, but what constitutes a human. 

 

 And, for most of the pregnancy, they aren't nerveless, or unresponsive.

 

Well no, I'm using the right argument. You are forcing me to do/not do something which can POTENTIALLY become a human and ruin a life or whatever. That's government controlling your body and quite frankly, very scary, far worse than any tax, gun law, or whatever.

If we're going down the "it will eventually feel and have feelings and be alive, etc." route. Then why don't you just outlaw masturbation and jacking off? Why don't you start giving taxes for funding on how to stop women from having their periods and perserving eggs? Sperm and eggs are all a potential humans in the future!
