[QUOTE="Cearbhall, post: 68552653, member: 330616"] Except when they're dying, in your opinion. Using that logic, it's fine for someone to drug me and remove tissue, blood, and organs, as long as they don't take any vital organs. Because hey, someone else needs them. If their life can be maintained without killing me, then my right to bodily autonomy hasn't kicked in... Yes, but that's different from having the right to use someone [I]else's[/I] body to maintain your body against that person's will. No one has that right. I don't. You don't. We can't even use a corpse in this way. This is why infanticide is illegal. The woman doesn't have to kill the baby if she doesn't want to provide for him or her. She can just hand the child to a nurse, no questions asked. [/QUOTE]
