I did not pretend to be you. Who are you? If you had a similar name at one time, then oh well. It's a screen name. I've used it many times. And guess what, a lot of times it's already taken.

Also, conjoined twins present a similar issue. The analogy is better than stow away on transcontinental flight at least.

Oh Mary, please. You know right well. Similar situations occur in car accidents on occasion like in the movie Signs, although life can be sustained only for small periods.

Please stay. You are quite a good writer.

JR acknowledges that removal of the baby in life threatening conditions to the mother is acceptable, but he requires more invasive surgery in unrealistic attempts to save the life of the child. Surely that's right at least. And, I do not support abortion. I think it should be legally tolerated...

Trying to avoid a question that exposes flawed logic protects misconceptions.

If in a building collapse you are pinned against an infant with a major wound. Reducing the pressure of the rubble on top of you will result in the infants death. You can be sustained in the current position indefinitely. There is a risk of further building collapse and a risk you could...

Is it okay for mothers with fertility issues to create several embryos when trying for just one child? It is common practice to have several because there is a high chance the first attempted attachment will not take. Frozen embryos can be stored for future attempts. If pregnancy is...

It's not so complex that you could not just state your the analogy in full here. And, you know I have not experienced serious discussion of this analogy before. You may be skipping info to avoid scrutiny of it. The hook up analogy is better because it puts bodily autonomy against the life of...

Why on earth are you trying to discuss the analogy vaguely referencing how it is usually couched and how it is usually responded to instead of just using the analogy? You haven't kept the question that narrow as you just stated here.

But it is a sin? Like self-abuse.

What about the doctrine against coitus interuptus? Is preventing completion of the act once started, murder?

I thought you strongly made the point that stopping potential life is murder as well.

I struggle with thoughts about you never having been born. I need to pray about it.

If there is any attraction between man and woman and it is never consummated, is that murder as well?

Hershel was a gentleman to pay the whole bill instead of going halfsies.

Yes -- As he or she is not a microscopic precursor.

A stowaway is best not allowed off at the destination. Rather he is detained and sent back to the point of origin. The biological hook up is an infinitely better analogy.

Okay so far. Fair enough. Why? Spell it out. You jump to a conclusion without supporting it and expect me to fill in the justification? My compromise fits perfectly. A woman voluntarily hooked up cannot leave unless the fetus is safe. The act of initiating the relationship confers a duty...

It is not practical to treat a fertilized egg the same as we do a baby. And we don't -- except when someone like you wants to accuse someone of murder. No one is charged for neglect because of a miscarriage. Pregnant women cannot ride the carpool lane unless someone else is on the car. You...
