  13. Enlightened to say that is an oversimplification of my point. I have no intent of judging sexual behavior. I couldn’t care less on it. But again if one had sex without the intent of having a child then u could say that they simply find the existence of the baby or fetus to be a mistake. That is the core of the point. That I don’t believe a fetus or baby should be punished by being denied it’s chance to live out a life just because they weren’t intended to exist. That to me is unacceptable. Now if u want my consistency for my argument, a mother legally has a duty to care for her child and ensure that he or say is alive and nurtured until that can be passed to someone else. This is why a mother can’t just refuse to feed her child. Now the question of body autonomy while valid falls into the category of two problems. First is that body autonomy never expands to the right to deliberately harm another innocent human being. This is why u can’t just punch a stranger out of nowhere. The second issue is full body autonomy has never existed. There has always been compromises for body autonomy for the sake of societal protection and people. Drinking limits, statutory rape, seatbelt laws, drug limits, u get what I’m saying. My position has not been increased for a simple factor and a simple stance that 1. Parents have a moral responsibility and legal duty to their children until it can be passed to another And 2. That rights to one’s own body autonomy should never extend to the right to deliberate harm others, innocence no less. Within that context, a fetus would have equal rights.

  16. Enlightened To answer your final question there is a very simple groundwork on whether or not if it is would want to live and that simply one once when it develops a consciousness of basically resists being killed and then on top of that considering that when it’s born it has a desire and instinct to live and that even people that are depressed and such don’t commit suicide then they are by extension choosing to live. This is the core of my point that it should never be up to another person on whether or not this living being that in 99% of scenarios is going to grow up healthy, and at least have the chance to live a decent life. Why should it be up to a mother to determine if that baby should live or not? I would honestly consider that closer to narcissistic more than ur claim on me as u r literally having an innocent human beings life determined by a mother that in most instances has the choice to give the baby a chance to live and in most instances is looking at with their own interests in mind and not the baby. At the end of the day the determination of if a baby wants to live or not should be up to no else than the baby itself. Finally I am pretty much on a stance on no abortion being ok. In the case of a mother being endangered I have already stated that emergency procedures can be taken to save a mother’s life even if it kills the fetus in the process but that is not the same as abortion where it deliberately terminated the fetus. I think in the instances where a fetus needs to be removed to save the mother’s life, than that’s fine but afterwards measures should be taken to try to keep the fetus alive.
