"What about the healthy child that is allowed to be born who does n't need any major medical care except for the last 10-15 years of their life ? The elderly present this same scenario that you seem to think is an ill effect . So let 's just kill them and be done with it . Is that what you 're saying ?"
"No we should not kill the sick and dieing . But when you need medical care in the last 10-15 years of their lives there is a reason . Old age , disease , accident , using drugs ( and yes tobacco is a drug ) , etc .. That goes with life . Have you ever stepped on an ant ? That is a life form Squashed a spider , Eaten a chicken , wear leather ? And to say a fetus is a life how can you eat eggs ? A fetus becomes a baby the baby becomes a adult and the adult becomes the elderly . A chickens egg becomes a chicken or breakfast . Why not defend the egg ? We kill animals for luxury of their skin ( leather ) Not to keep warm but for the look and feel only . If life is that important that we dictate it is at conception why not defend all life . Animals included ."
