Reply #18: I've been trying to say this all along...

...only I've been shouted down as "anti-choice" and even a misogynist, even though I'm female and will fight to the death for women's equality...err, what's that saying? First, it's ridiculed. Next, it's violently opposed. Then it's accepted.

IN fact, their ideas about life beginning at conception have literally no scientific suppport OR even support among many of the cultures around the world.

There is scientific proof. It's known as having a unique genetic makeup: DNA. When dad's sperm and mom's egg unite, the resulting zygote has its own, unique pattern of DNA. That's what makes us all different. Consistent life advocates might want to couch the issue in terms of civil rights. Question is, is abortion discriminatory on the basis of gestational/birth age?
