il: i didn't say that 'things change' was a good reason. i did say that 1. things do change, and that 2. saying that 'something has changed and i don't like it - we did fine without it!' isn't a reason to go back. as i said, it's irrelevant, in and of itself.

i've already said this, i think: i don't know when a fetus becomes a person. you don't know when a fetus becomes a person. i am sure its a person after birth. you are sure its a person after birth. you think it's a person before birth...but that's precisely what we are discussing. how sure you can be of that belief. i don't think very sure at all, depending on what 'being human' means to you.

therefore, i'm not 'pro-abortion.' i'm 'pro-choice.' because reasonable people can have a debate on this that lasts for ten fucking pages on a site like tfp, or for years out in 'the real world,' obviously it's not a settled question. therefore, i feel most comfortable letting people choose how they want to handle it, and let them deal with the repercussions.
