"Slavery which is illegal per the Constitution."

So is abortion. But, the point is that it was not always legal, and just as many people could not see any problem with it because it was legal, so, too, can you not see the atrocity of abortion because it is legal.

"But, let's play-pretend you actually have an analogy"

Thanks for the concession! It's not my analogy - it was proposed long ago.

"you then run into the problem that a fetus has no personhood"

Prove it! Thus far, no one has been able to scientifically prove that there are certain human beings who are not persons. The fact that the law does not grant personhood to the preborn is not a good argument, as the law also did not grant personhood to black people or Jews. Since you cannot scientifically prove that the preborn human (or any human) is not a person, we should always err on the side of caution, lest we end up with a holocaust of 60 million.

"However you wish to argue that I may not have an abortion because of a potential that doesn't exist."

Calling a human life a "potential" is tremendously morally repugnant. It would mean that you were only a potential once - that you somehow existed but only as a potential. How hypocritical and arrogant.

"I certainly don't rely on fallacious analogies to "prove" a point."

Fallacious arguments are all your side has. And those arguments are dropping like flies.

"No, it does not. You made no argument, just a bunch of rambling that went no where."

I gave you three arguments each with two premises and a conclusion, and you call them "ramblings" just because you do not understand them?

"Yet this is what you are attempting to argue."

I'm not arguing anything about buns or ovens, just that if Chuck's argument that "legal makes moral" were true, then we would still have slavery. Slavery was once legal, but never moral.

"I make it a rule not to watch or read propaganda."

That's a "yes, I know it is wrong, but cannot give up my ideology" from you!

How do you know it is propaganda if you don't watch it?!? Also, you must read your own posts, and they are all propaganda. I think that the reason you do not have the courage to watch an abortion video is that you are afraid that your ideology will come face-to-face with its victims. In which case, you will be forced to change your ideology or deny its victims - and neither one is what your feelings will allow.

"Your ignorance about half of the human race is pathetic."

Somebwody got her feewings hurt. :-) What is really pathetic is that the over half of all abortions are done on the half of the human race that you claim to care about.
