how is sperm from a human not human life? how is it not alive? it shows all the same signs of life (more actually) that embryos show.
Abortion deals with killing individual human lives. The right to life, both what I am referring to and given by our constitution, referrs to individuals of the human species. Sperm has live cells but is not an individual human life.

"We don't have the right stop infants from further developing."

we have the right to stop embryos and early fetuses from developing. abortions are legal.
Right, you know the law. Infants just like embryos and fetuses can't speak up for themselves but with just a small amount of time, they can.

Quote:
science doesnt say you must eat meat.
This is far beyond what I can explain. Most societies have adopted this long long ago. Like many other species we eat meat. This has nothing to do with human rights.

Quote:
no concept of morality or compassion? if thats the case, why cant we kill them for whatever reason we want?
Probably because it speaks to the mentality of the human that enjoys abuse. In our society it is unacceptable but in others it is.

Quote:
and whats this video showing?
I don't buy what the narrator is saying. It isn't proven that the hippo shows compassion. In fact hippos kill quite a few animals. They are very dangerous.

Quote:
well, yes theyre a different species, but why are our lives more valuable? is it simply because we can relate to one another? because we can protest and pursue revenge on each another? what is it?
This is a much bigger issue than abortion. Human life has been more valuable to humans than other species' lives probably since human existance. Other species tend to adopt the same stance but not all.

Quote:
ok, so you dont want to support your antiabortion view with the view of being prolife. so what do you base your criteria for right to life on exactly?
The constitution which guarantees an equal right to life and the oppurtunities life can produce. Everyone deserves to exist. Those that violate that right of others do not deserve it.
