Oh please. Sophie can't tell the difference between a whole human body and part of one. Equates clipping your nails or getting a haircut with having an abortion. Let's see, . . . my hair can't live unless it's attached to me . . . Catagories, catagories where have you gone?

It seems to me that "your" fetus can't live unless it's attached to you either. Matter of fact, if that weren't true, this whole issue would be academic.

Sophie dear, hair and fingernails are dead cells in the first place. Your comparison lacks credibility. T. C. Wheeler

You know I was just commenting on the use of the term "human", pointing out that many things that are human are killed so it might be more useful to debate whether a fetus is a person or not rather than whether it is human or not. Of course, it is human! Hey! I was giving you guys a point, why are you objecting now? > Equates clipping your nails or getting a haircut with having an abortion. > Let's see, . . . my hair can't live unless it's attached to me . . . > Well, YOU made the comparison, not me. A 2 month old fetus cannot live unless attached to its mother either, while you're at it. An eight month old fetus on the other hand, might, but who wants to abort 8 month old fetuses anyway? -- Sophie Quigley {allegra|decvax|ihnp4|linus|watmath}!utzoo!mnetor!sophie
