Constitutionalist,
Your post highlights why the religious zealots or so horrifying. Your post has you defending the “life” of a few cells, yet you immediately say your imaginary protector is going to come and murder everyone that doesn’t have the same beliefs as you.
A cow who is slaughtered to make your hamburger has more experience, more emotion and personality than a single fertilized human cell, but we still kill it it without missing a beat. Why is it that the anti-choicers think a single cell is so valuable? More valuable than the lives of the mother, father and their families, and indeed more valuable than all of the other unwanted children waiting for a family in orphanages. We have the technology to make child birth a planned and safe activity, why not use it? I would wager the people who created religion only wanted more sheep to proselytize for the flock.
I would also like to point out that sex has not become a national sport as you have mentioned, but is in fact a hard-wired biological action. Thanks to advances in technology we have the ability to engage in this activity in a responsible manner, without threat of infection and parasites. (see what I did there
)
