In the Fox News article, Harris is quoted equating abortion with "reproductive healthcare." But abortion is death to a human being--it's the murder of a child.

Harris claims, "attacks against an individual's right to make decisions about their own body are outrageous, and in many instances, just plain immoral."

First of all, a child developing in it's mother's womb is not part of the women's body. Harris doesn't understand science or the reproductive health system. A fertilized human egg is looked on by the mother's body as foreign tissue to reject. The same sort of thing happens if someone has a kidney transplant, which is why they need anti-rejection drugs. But the woman's body has an inbuilt anti-rejection system God created to enable the fertilized egg to implant in the uterus to develop the body of the individual.

Secondly, once an egg is fertilized, no new information is ever added, so the fertilized egg is 100 percent a human being made in God's image.

Thirdly, the genetic information in a fertilized egg is a very different combination to that of the woman or the man. This is a unique individual different from any other human being ever, now, or that will exist.

Fourthly, if the fertilized egg is male, the Y chromosome came from the man, not the woman, so how can this be a part of the women's body when she has a different combination of information?

Notice also that Harris uses the word "immoral." What does she mean by that? What is her absolute authority to claim something is "immoral?" If the God of the bible is not the absolute authority, then morality is relative and her statement about something being "immoral" is meaningless as it's all subjective depending on what a person decides.
