Everything is what we decide it is. You have decided killing a fetus is homicide, that's your interpretation. It isn't like that for other people. Other people have adopted other definitions of what life is. When does a human life start? It starts when we say so. It is a continuous transition, not a discrete set of steps.

For you a human life starts at a point, for them it starts at a different point. Who is right? Neither. That's just a matter of opinion and semantics. Which is why I gave the example of the people who think jerking off is a sin because "you shall not waste your seed" or whatever.

You are trying to protect the life of a future human, they are trying to protect the freedom of women. You have different priorities.

My whole point is... You just shouted an opinion and got shouted opinions back at you. What's the point? Just vote for whoever you think will make the change you want to see. It is your right. It is also their right.
