ONLY IF GOD EXISTS.
I'm often willing to assume it for the sake of certain arguments. However, that doesn't mean I accept the claim the rest of the time, just because someone claims it. Per the
Rules of Debate, you have made a positive claim that you need to support with evidence. Well?
THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS "INNOCENT UNBORN" --at least if they are older than about a week after conception. Unborn humans are totally guilty of committing assault, at least 4 different ways, starting with invading the womb,
burying part of itself much like a tick's head. It steals
biological nutrients from the body of its hostess; it dumps
toxic biowastes into the body of its hostess, and it infuses
addictive and
mind-altering substances into the body of its hostess. Anyone calling the typical unborn human "innocent" is either spouting an Ignorant Lie (a falsehood told in ignorance of Objectively Verifiable Facts), or a Stupid Lie (a lie that is easy to prove is a lie)
IGNORANTLY FALSE. Only persons can be murdered, not mindless animals like ticks or unborn humans. And you
know what a person truly is; just Answer this Question: "
If you were visiting a modern well-equipped medical laboratory, and some madman with a machete cut your head off in an attempt to murder you, but rescuers arrived in time, would you want them to save your headless human body, or save your severed head, to save YOU-the-person?" The words "human" and "person" refer to totally different/unrelated concepts.
GOD IS NOT THAT STUPID/IGNORANT. You are talking about the same God that supposedly knows everything, including all the details about how the physical Universe works in accordance with the Law of Cause and Effect. So, since humans know that partially living things like sperm and ova can exist and interact and produce fully living things like zygotes, that same God should know it too, and doesn't need to do anything for Nature to take its course (follow the genetic programming built into the DNA of the zygote). The Bible was written by folks who had no idea how the Universe worked, and erroneously blamed every little thing on God. Tsk, tsk!
IGNORANCE REPEATED DOESN'T EQUAL FACT. And you should look at Exodus 21:22, because even if God had some sort of interest in an unborn human, an unborn human can still be killed and the penalty for doing that can be
**ZERO**.
DOES NOT APPLY TO MOST PRO-CHOICERS. Promoting the freedom to choose to do something, like say smoke marijuana, does not equate with encouraging folks to smoke marijuana. (I support that freedom while I equally think anyone who does it for non-medical purposes is a fool who is
committing slow suicide. And there is no contradiction because humanity's long-term survival could be improved by letting fools kill themselves off --would you rather they got their fingers on the nuke buttons?)
IF YOU MAKE THE POSITIVE CLAIM THAT PRO-CHOICE EQUALS ENCOURAGING ABORTIONS, LET'S SEE THE EVIDENCE! Otherwise you are simply spouting a Stupid Lie.
ANOTHER POSITIVE CLAIM COMING UP. Where is the Objectively Verifiable Evidence to support the claim? Tsk, tsk!
WHEN LIARS LIE, THEY CAN BE IGNORED. Duuuuhhhh!!!
THAT WAS HER CHOICE. It does not equate to a demand that others copy that choice.
