    I dont know how you couldnt, it must be hard living in the world of such hate and pain. Where the only pleasure you receive is from the deaths of the unborn. I guess black and white, would be better then the red blood on your hands.

    Yep. We're all assholes. Even the dead babies.

    Animals are used more then just for food. But apparently living in a box doesnt allow you to view the real world often, does it?

    Getting into the business of judging the value of lives is tantamount to genocide (which is, oddly enough, what people like NoLimit equate abortion to).

    If we just eat them though they're all worth the same thing (maybe the fat ones are worth more but I would argue that skinnier ones have more energy, and therefore power, in their brains so it offsets itself).

    How do you know that? How do you know that the kid won't contract the flu in a few weeks and die anyway? How do you know that he doesn't get placed in foster care, get abused, then go on a killing rampage when he's twenty? You're making wild conjecture, just like I am. The difference is that I'm not making a blanket statement about "who's life is more important." People don't take the abortion decision lightly (like Singularity has already mentioned), but it shouldn't be an "always no."

    I bet babies taste pretty good, if prepared correctly.

    You were legitimizing the killing of animals specifically because we utilize it to survive. If aborted embryos are used for stem cell research (which could ultimately lead to cures for disease, thereby promoting survival), why is that any different?

    Okay this time I seriously found the solution to the abortion debate:

    If we just eat the dead babies then it won't be a waste of human life. In addition to getting sustenance, eating babies would allow us to procure their brain and heart and thus their power (energy). Therefore, their lifeforce won't be wasted either!

    Ok in the case where the mother is involved, is it not true the mother has lived her life. Id view this like i would view a heart transplant, if i would have 1 heart, and had to decide between a woman in her 20s or a child id give the heart to the child.
    Would you consider making it illegal for others to donate the heart to the woman instead of the child? You probably would not, as everyone should have a choice in such a matter. The reason you made the choice is that you view the unborn child as very important, most other people would argue that a sentient being that has proven to function in society would be more valuable/has more of a right to live?. (More ethicals dilemmas wait around the corner here, as in, what age would be the threshold, how valuable should one be).
    Same logic applies to abortion, with the distinction that the amount of importance we attach to an embryo increase with the coming closer to being born. It is all factored in the equation.

    Still waiting on that stem cell answer.

    EDIT: In the meantime:

    But why? Just because the mother is older? That's pretty ridiculous.
