By your own admission, you have no scientific or logical refutation for the fact that the uterus exists for the child.
"so precedence is relevant,"
Not anymore than it was for the abolition of other human rights abuses. legality does not equate to morality, and saying it does puts you on the wrong side of racial slavery as well.
"Nobody else gets a claim over any part of another persons body."
That assertion was previously refuted. Your repeating it does not make your argument any better. Bodily autonomy always has its limits, and certainly does not include the intentional killing of another human.
"Abortion is literally the termination of a pregnancy."
False. All pregnancies terminate - some with dead babies, some with living ones. By your faux definition, your childbirth was an abortion. Please think before you post. Abortion is the intentional killing of a human being - one who has committed no crime. that is what was legalized in Roe and Doe.
"You claim that it's an exception because it's an active killing"\
Not an exception. A logically different situation - one you have failed at showing its equivalence. The uterus exists for the child.
"So?"
So, has it really never occurred to you that it is the height of moral hypocrisy for you having been granted the right to survive the womb while denying that same right to 60 million more?!?
Were you the type of child who slammed the door behind you so that whoever was chasing you would run into it?
Have you considered the very real possibility that you are on the wrong side of the worst human rights atrocity in the history of the world?
How would you handle the following argument?:
1. Humans have intrinsic moral value. (basic morality)
2. What is located in the human womb, post-conception, is a human. (settled science)
3. Therefore, abortion kills a human with intrinsic moral value - one who is guilty of no crime.
The only difference between a human inside of the womb and one outside of it is size, level of development, environment, and degree of dependency. And each one of those factors, if used to argue for abortion, could be also used as a reason for killing a child OUTSIDE of the womb. In abortion clinics all across America today, nearly 3000 humans with intrinsic moral value – guilty of no crime but their mere existence – are being led to their deaths, and gruesome ones at that.
