My sad tale, and why abortion issue is not about deciding

[The Doctor.]

2. These low-intellect creatures have been taught

that it is better to despise intellect than to grow one.

I would like to believe that anecdotes like this would get them to realize that the issue is far more complicated than their black and white world-view will allow, but alas, that would be far too much work. The only ones who learn are the ones close to a story like yours.

In the meanwhile, might I recommend that you do not make the terms of their victory 'your dead body', because they are uncivilized and very likely to take you up on that. I think that I, and I hope you as well, would rather that the 'dead bodies' be theirs.

Given that they would see women die even where the fetus was not viable, I have no moral compunction here.
