4. Actually the unborn child, the fetus, IS a part of the woman's body.

And the slavery part is really about reproductive slavery. Just like the master on the plantation would breed black women for the next generation of slaves, these anti-abortion types are using women as breeding stock to satisfy their need to dominate women.

One thing that should be noted, unless she has previously birthed children, a woman isn't a mother until she gives birth to a live baby.

If Christians cared as much about the victims of gun violence as they do about abortion, we'd have strong anti-gun laws in the United States.
But, there isn't really any concern about the birthed baby, only the illusion of concern needed to justify forcing women into reproductive slavery.
