Rutherford Institute Urges Stringent Health and SafetyRegulations for Abortion Clinics
It's interesting how no one has spoken to the actual theme of the lead
article of this thread. It's past my usual bedtime, so I'll just mention a long article I published on the saga of South Carolina's own abortion clinic regulation act. I posted it in installments on the following thread: http://groups.google.com/group/alt.a...fbac2ff587e2f6 I don't post on weekends except in extraordinary circumstances, and I may make this a 3-day weekend, but I shall return to this thread! Now, a few more comments, and then it's really time to hit the sack.

Consider this also (this is mainly for those specifically demanding that abortion is murder). If a girl decides to abort her fetus, who's going to press the charges of murder against the doctor? Technically only the girl or her partner can (if he's still around) because they conceived it. This makes the claim of murder absurd on its face. The thing is, only a planned and wanted fetus can be murdered, not an unplanned and unwanted one. Every fetus must have a married couple (or de facto) planning for its life, otherwise it has no life plan. No life plan means no Life (capital l). What we should just do is deliver all unwanted born babies to the religious right's homes and get them to raise them all and see how they like it. They seem to be obsessed with babies so much. |

The states files murder charges, you idiot. Has that ever happened where a girl chose to abort? I seriously doubt it, and there's almost no chance it ever can. |

And pro-liars will fight tooth and nail to prevent one cent being spent on a child after birth, not even for one square inch of additional school space or one cent for health care, not a penny for unemployment or welfare. But, they'll spend a fortune on new prisons. Strange, isn't it? Baby, bad. Abortions, wonderful! -- http://folding.stanford.edu Save lives, visit today! |

Groan. It's been almost ten years since I posted in talk.origins, where
Peter Nyikos was a trenchant egomaniac PITA denier of evolution. Judging from this post, he hasn't changed a bit. Damn, I had hoped that by now he would have passed into the afterlife so God could explain to him that Intelligent Design is junk science. Of all the newsgroups in all the world, he had to be cross-posted to one of mine. (Mea culpa for the personal whine.) "pnyikos" wrote in message ...
