Gallup: More Americans “Pro-Life” Than “Pro-Choice” for First Time

Sorry, for the absence, Barcelona took priority over the interwebs.

I fully agree that the lump of cells is alive. They are carbon based cells with DNA in them and hence alive. I'm just arguing that until later they can't really be considered human. Potentially human, yes, but potentially the roof is gonna fall on me and I will die too....

As rath pointed out, a baby is almost infinitely less dependent on its mother than a fetus in the early stages. While a human is solely dependent on food and water from any source, that fetus depends thoroughly on the mother, in fact I consider it a part of the mother, not its own individual self, that or a parasite. The reason I'm pro-choice is two fold:

1) Who the fuck are you, me, anyone to tell others what to do with their bodies ini a way that doesn't affect you one single bit?
2) Scary fucking shit happens when you start giving government the power over people's bodies. As I said earlier, tax me, give me guns, do whatever, just leave my body alone.

To anyone who is pro-life. If you give that much a damn, figure out a way to get the fetus out of the mother and sustain it until it grows into an actual human if you care so much.
