Re: Do you wish the abortion argument would go away?

Uhh.. no, they wouldn't. And prometeus and Granny aren't the only ones who feel that way.

There is no ultimate authority that grants any "right to life". When would that right be granted anyway?
So, I guess that means I can murder you then? I mean, if you don't have a right to life there's no reason I can't.

The right to life is granted when one exhibits the properties of life.

They didn't mean blacks though. Or women. Probably not Indians either.
The fact that the American government violated those people's rights doesn't mean they weren't endowed with them. Hypocrisy? Yes. A negation of the rights theory? No.
