    If people decide to remain childless to save the planet, that means there are no future generations to inherit the planet, so why bother saving it in the first place?

    So long as it is understood what "with child" means. When a woman is with child she's already got a child.

    No, the term "with child" does not mean a woman life is anyone's business...

    :) I hope you remember that statement..it still is "none of anyone's business"

    As long as I take care of my kids, it's nobody's business how many kids I have. I don't think very highly of people who have more kids than they can support or people who use abortion as birth control.

    The other life she is "with" most certainly IS society's business.

    Nope, it isn't....unless you claim that all pregnant women are property of the government...(they aren't, BTW)

    The reason it screwed up is because you keep screwing up the quotation function by overusing bold and using "FoxHasting wrote [arrow]:...." instead of the quotation function

    I am not going to fix that for you.

    NO, I did not screw it up...YOU did not use the quote function properly.....maybe if you calmed down you could handle it...:) :)


    Good way to dodge those pesky inconvenient questions ;)

    I have no idea how a child "embodies " Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness...Those words were meant for everyone, ALL citizens...


    So what's your solution?

    FORCE people to marry, breed, and stay married no matter what??


    Is that your version of Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness?


    Please NOTE, those are QUESTIONS

    Of course it is. One person’s autonomy doesn’t grant him or her rights over the life of another.

    No, it doesn't but there is no "another" if a woman is pregnant.

    There is only one "person", the woman who is pregnant.

    HER right to bodily autonomy gives her the right to do what she wants with her body. No one owns her, no one can use her body to sustain their life.

    Pregnant women do not lose the human right of bodily autonomy because they are pregnant.


    ...and getting back to the topic, NO one is obligated to populate the earth.

    a debate for the courts... as of now, a fetus is not a person and not subject to the bill of rights... please do try to follow along

    https://constitutioncenter.org/interactive-constitution/podcast/will-roe-be-overturned

    btw, do you also support forcing a person to live with a cancer growing inside them or force them into having surgery & chemo? , because that's where this leads to, government deciding on medical treatment

    Oh? So you equate a human baby to a tumor? You pro-abortionists always reveal your absolute moral bankruptcy. It’s clear who is “not human.”

    Here, I'll present the whole post:

    ""No, it doesn't but there is no "another" if a woman is pregnant.

    There is only one "person", the woman who is pregnant.

    HER right to bodily autonomy gives her the right to do what she wants with her body. No one owns her, no one can use her body to sustain their life.

    Pregnant women do not lose the human right of bodily autonomy because they are pregnant.


    ...and getting back to the topic, NO one is obligated to populate the earth.""""








    Biology has nothing to do with law and rights.

    A pregnant woman is ONE person.

    That poster did NOT equate a human baby to a tumor...


    ...and despite your attempt at a weak insult NO one said anything about anything being "not human"..

    Maybe reading the posts more slowly would help.

    The pro-abortionist has to pretend to ignore the central moral issue in order to maintain an indefensible position for any decent human being.
