Wrong again, Peter.  _YOU_ have absolute right over _YOUR_ body.  Here's
an example:

I know CPR, the Heimlich manuever, and some basic first aid.  I get into a
car accident.  I'm not hurt.  The other guy goes into cardiac arrest.  I
cannot be forced to help the other guy.  I can legally be forced to stand
around at the scene of the accident and watch him die, but not to help him.xD

What "Pro-Lifers" are trying to do is analogous to forcing me to help the jerk
who ran into my car.

Ok.  And you wonder how come people _know_ you're a mysognist?

Ah, yes.  As you explained in another post, you were being "satirical"...

Oh.  Sure.  Sarah McCabe makes a suggestion that would have to be passed into
national law before it could be enforced, I volunteered to help out, and this
is threatening you?

What Solar System did you say were internetting in from?

Do you have any idea who Jeff is, "Dr" Nykios?  How about Richard Locke?
