He has a science youtube channel, which I enjoy watching. I thought he made a good point in this tweet.
For those of you who can't read the tweet, this is what it says:
Quote:
Here's the thing, guys. It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter when life begins. It doesn't matter whether a fetus is a human being or not.
That entire argument is a red herring, a distraction, a subjective and unwinnable argument that could not matter less. It doesn't matter whether we are talking about a fertilized egg, or a fetus, or a baby, or a 5 year old, or a Nobel Peace Price winning pediatric oncologist.
NOBODY has the right to use your body against your will, even to save their life, or the life of another person. That's it. That's the argument.
You cannot be forced to donate blood, or marrow, or organs, even thought thousands die every year on waiting lists. They cannot even harvest your organs after your death without your explicit, written, pre-mortem permission.
Denying women the right to abortion means we have less bodily autonomy than a corpse.
WTH are you talking about? Nobody is suggesting using anyone's body against their will. Whoever wrote that moronic tweet is going to pull a muscle from all of those spectacular mental gymnastics.
A poster in the other thread copied and pasted this and passed it off as her own "opinion."
Oh, you pro abortioners. Not an original thought ever.
No, it is just that many pro choice people believe that no one should be required to use their bodies in any way that they do not consent to. I'v had the same opinion for years and you can check my posts on the topic.
Ok great then. Fathers/mothers don’t have to use their bodies against their will to make money for child support payments. Or even to raise that child for that matter.
