Reply #20: If Huckabee believes abortion takes a human life then how could he say otherwise?

[Kurt_and_Hunter]

I am delighted when people follow the logical implications of their convictions. It's better than the duplicitous "Lets pretend we all get along even though I think you are actually Hitler" game.

If I thought abortion was murder I would have little choice but to say the same thing.

The point is that saying abortion is murder is not any less right or wrong than likening abortion to a holocaust. The one follows the other quite sensibly. So normal everyday pro-life people who say abortion is the "taking of an innocent life" should be subject to precisely the same level of derision or condemnation as Huckabee.
