Now, how does that relate to the question raised by the OP?

My post was not in response to the OP, I was responding to your post.

You apparently are confused.

This is an internet forum
This is a thread entitled 'is animal life more valuable than human life'
As such, all discussion in this thread should be about that thread topic.

So, I ask again. How is the difference in perception between chicken eggs, bald eagle eggs, and human embryos relatable to the thread topic?

If you are unable to answer this time, I'll give you my opinion.

Sounds like a "B" movie action hero

If you are going to ask questions I'll answer them, so don't ask me a question and badger me for not answering a different post altogether.

The question in the OP is a ridiculous and obviously rhetorical question.

Babbling provably false nonsense like that is why your side loses the argument over and over.

That you people have become so accustomed to being deliberately deceptive in just about everything you say and do, even amongst yourselves, as you lie to each other just as much as you do with the rest of us ... may have resulted in your losing the ability to discern reality from fantasy and truth from fiction. It's quite possible at this point that you may actually be drinking your own kool-aide, and believing your delusions are real.

Nevertheless, as they say, a picture is better than a thousand words, and that picture is pretty clear. It's not a golf club .. it's not an apple .... it's not a rose .... it is a human baby. For those who insist it isn't, just shows your complete disconnect with literal reality.

Show this picture to just about any 5 year old, and they'll identify this as a baby. That leaves you to consider what could have gone haywire in your mind which prevents you from at least grasping the same levels of logical deduction exhibited by a toddler.
I wish I could give you multiple reps.

Anybody who thinks its okay to kill that in cold blood is evil to the very core, just as much as Southern slave owners were. Just because its politically correct to kill that in the name of "choice" doesn't make it any less pure evil.

Most abortions happen for financial convenience, because the mother can't or doesn't want the financial obligation of raising a child. Slavery was also a matter of economics. You all have been so brainwashed though to think a baby in the womb isn't human, just like so many in pre-Civil War America were brainwashed into thinking blacks were lower forms of life. As horrible and shameful as that past was, it was still never legal to kill a slave like it is to kill babies today.
