alex_antoninI personally live for the day when abortion is no more controversial than getting an appendectomy. After all, it doesn't matter if the appendix is septic or not; you can still get it removed whether it's threatening your life or not and literally nobody gives a shit.
The basic argument against abortion always essentially boils down to one of two things: A. "I'm a moron who believes my bronze age god doesn't like abortion even though that same god in the very bible I purport to believe in GIVES EXPLICIT INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO PERFORM AN ABORTION." and/or
B. "THE SOUL..."
First, we tackle A: Complete nonsense, illogical. If God is all-powerful and doesn't like abortions then HOW IS IT THEY KEEP HAPPENING, EH? If God didn't like abortions, THEY WOULD NOT HAPPEN, EVER.
Now on to B: Prove that the soul exists. You cannot. Therefore, an infant is nothing but meat. A human being is nothing but meat. And until that meat starts talking, there's no way to even begin to give flimsy evidence of a soul.
And not only is the unborn baby incapable of speech, but it can't fucking do anything on its own. Until the fucking cord is cut, it is nothing more or less than a new organ being grown. Until it is born and the cord is cut, that squirming little worm is nothing more than an extension of the mother's body. And if you're saying she can't do what she wants with a part of her own fucking body, then YOU, SIR/MADAM, ARE A SENTIENT PILE OF HORSE SHIT!
