Mark:  Your re-phrasing is exactly right.  It's original.  I always think what you say is brilliant too.  At least, I can't think of an exception.  Mary

So you are actually not violating the rights of the fetus when
getting an abortion, even if it had personhood status; because
you can't violate rights that no person can have. Have I
rephrased you correctly?

Is that original, or who haven't I been reading?

Suppose that a zygote, fetus, whatever, IS a human being. Why
shoud it have more rights than you or I or other human beings?

If you or I need a kidney, or a liver, or only a pint of blood
to survive--and if there is only one person in the world (a
relative, perhaps) who can be the donor--the law does not insist
that that person endorse our right to life by donating parts of,
or use of, their body.

You or I could--and probably would--make out a case that the
person who refused to donate even a mere pint of blood for us in
order for us to survive was a very bad person, indeed. And
probably, they WOULD BE a bad person. Still, under law, no one is
held down, kicking and screaming, while some of their blood, or
whatever is extracted from them.

You and I do not have the right to others' bodies, even if it
makes the difference between life and death for us. Why should
the unborn?
