Erm, sorry.
"Up to the task" is a subjective criterion best determined by the would-be mother. But it's very relevant whether abortion is murder or not, as "Am I up to the task" would be decidedly less relevant than "Is the option I seek something that not being up to the task could even begin to justify?"
Hrmm... maybe that would've been more parseable in caps.

Well, if you're talking about murder as a legal construct, then no, it is definitely not murder. On the other hand, if what you mean by murder is that someone or thing has killed someone or thing else in a way you find displeasing, well, then fur is murder too. The only reason the word murder comes up is because it carries a certain emotional weight- whether it actually is murder or not is irrelevant.

So? I thought you were a scientist. The fact that you can do things is piss poor evidence that other people can do them.
What is? That i came up with a better idea for your catch phrase than you did, or that i trust people to be able to determine what is best for themselves- at least inasmuch as i don't really expect anyone else, on average, to be able to do it as well?
Help me understand the nature of the ludicrosity.
