Abortion

I will start off by quoting exactly what I stated last time that was not refuted by you: "If you support the right to "determine the use of my own body" then you are defending human rights. And if you defend human rights, then you must defend the principle human right from which all other human rights stem: The Right to Life. Since you must defend the Right to Life, and since you would support all human beings are created equal, then you would have to defend that all human beings have equal human rights such as the right to life. And because you openly admit a fetus is a living human being, then you have to support the child's inalienable right to life. Thus, abortion is wrong. Boom. Never forget: "The right to swing my fist ends where another man's nose begins"- Oliver Wendell Holmes" Now I will address all parts of your refutations by providing your direct quotes and then replying: 1. a.) Now you state that "The right is within my right to control my own body. Within the US, the right of privacy: personal autonomy are within the constitution due process clause of the 14th Amendment and may include as parts of the right of privacy under the 1st, 4th, and 5th Amendments [1]. The decision that most closely recognizes this right provided by the 14th amendment is Row vs. Wade. So, to make it CRYSTAL clear. The US constitution is what suggest that I have this right." 1. b) Yeah you can control your own body until it infringes upon the right of someone else. Thats like saying well I control my own body however I like, so I can justifiably punch someone in the face without repercussion because I have the right to control my body however I so choose. YOUR RIGHTS DO NOT EXTEND TO INFRINGE UPON THE RIGHTS OF ANYONE ELSE. And because you admit the fetus is a human being, and every human being has rights, the fetus has rights. Therefore YOU CANT INFRINGE UPON THE RIGHTS OF THE FETUS. Also, the fetus is its own unique body. So if you really supported to right to "control my own body" why don't you support the right for the fetus to protect his or body?? So what if the fetus is inside you because the fetus still has inalienable rights. 1. c) Now lets look at the declaration of Independence that states "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness" Clearly the Declaration of Independence declares that all human beings have the inalienable right to life. Once again, since you said the fetus is a human being, then the fetus has the inalienable right to life. 2. a) "Con simply wanders past the point over and over. If the child "wanders" INSIDE MY BODY, using my organs, refusing to leave. I have the right to expel it with any means necessary to insure MY right to body autonomy." 2. b) Bodily autonomy does not negate the right to life of another human being. Besides, why aren't you arguing for the rights of the body of the fetus since you admit both the mother and fetus are human beings? You're not being fair by only supporting the bodily autonomy of the mother. Why aren't you supporting the bodily autonomy of every human being since the fetus, as you admit, is a human being? More importantly, why aren't you supporting the right to life of the human being inside the mother which supersedes the right to "control your body."? 3. a) "Sure it does. You have been attempting to bring in other analogs, but none are necessary. If a fetus/human/person/child is living within my body, using my organs, without my consent, it is my right to kill it." 3. b) Well considering the innocent human being inside of you has the inalienable right to life, you are wrong in saying you have the right to "kill it." 4. a) "The right of the fetus/human/person/child do not negate MY right to my own body. If the fetus/human/person/child vacates on my command, or without the necessity of killing it, fine." 4. b) In fact you are wrong. Actually, the right to "your body" doesn't negate the right to life of the human being of the fetus. The right to life is the fundamental right of existence, therefore, because it is the foundation that the "right to your own body" exists upon, the right to life supersedes the right to control your own body. 5. a) "Consent is NOT given. You have this wish for tacit consent the does not exist. Noun 1. permission for something to happen or agreement to do something. "no change may be made without the consent of all the partners"" 5. b) Actually it is consented to. The partners agree to do the sex. Sex is the act of reproducing. If you agree to the act of reproducing, you agree to the reproduction. Hence, pregnancy (reproduction) is consented to. 6. a) "It"s a good thing that the government can"t force me to use my body against my will." 6. b) What if you will your body, (specifically your fist) to land a punch on another mans face. Is it legal for you to punch someone in the face at the bar? No. It is illegal. The government does control how you use your body when the usage of your body infringes upon the rights of someone else. So this goes back to what I said before: The right to control your body does not extend to infringe upon the right to life of the human being inside the woman. 7. a) "Humans that are not violating my right to control my body are none of my concern. Those that are, I have a complete right over." 7. b) Humans that you have complete control right... Complete right? No one has complete right over any other human being. That is the fallacy that justified slavery. The human being inside her will always have the inalienable right to life. Furthermore, human beings should be your concern. You should protect those without a voice. 8. a) "I have a responsibility to control my own body. One of the responsibilities is control what can and can"t use it for its own selfish reasons." 8. b) You can control your own body until it infringes upon the rights of another human being. The fetus is a unique human being, as you said, and therefore, has its own body. The fetus has the equal right to life as the mother does.
