How about some analogies

If a student fails a test, does that automatically make them a bad student?

If a kid makes a mistake, does that automatically make them a bad kid?

If someone causes a crash when they're a teen, does that automatically make them a bad driver?

Sorry, abortion is legal in this country which means we DO have the right to choose it.

If you believe a fetus is a person then you cannot morally support abortion.
If on the other hand you believe a fetus is not a person then yes you can support abortion and be a moral person.

I sure would hate it if someone in real life judged me for one thing. But apparently a lot of posters on this forum judge pro-choice people based on 1 thing.

A fetus is not a person.

If it was a person, it would be called a person, not a fetus.

You certainly do, and if there is a Hell, you will reside there for quite some time, perhaps permanently.

Let me give it a try. An infant is not a person, if it was a person, it would be called a person, not an infant.

Boy, being a liberal is EASY!!!!

Burdell responded to "Freedom of choice for whom?" with "Human beings capable of making a choice."

It follows that humans beings NOT capable of making a choice (such as the unborn, such as some disabled, such as some mentally disturbed) should not be offered said choice.

Not sure how this is difficult to understand. Unless you haven't covered deductive reasoning in your high school classes, yet.
