90. But, in post 56
you said that the issue was not about when life begins. :shrug:


"I believe it simply means we disagree on the issue of what rights a fetus has. Nothing more, nothing less."

And again, a fetus typically does not have rights in the American legal system. A woman who miscarries as a result of a car wreck can sue for damages to her own body for the miscarriage, but can not sue for the wrongful "death" of the fetus. What you are really saying (at least legally) is that you disagree on when life begins.
