I would hope that you’d understand that child sacrifice is considered barbaric by a lot of folks. That’s what you are proposing.Oh, so if the life of one person is at stake, then the bodily autonomy of the other person can be ignored, is that it?
Then let's strap you down, force you to donate blood, a kidney, a lung, some liver...
After all, to you, that's an inconvenience. To the other person, it's life or death!
Yes, I would support you if you didn't want to do it.And if someone said to me, "Kylie, you need to use a part of your body to keep this person alive, and we don't care if you don't want to do it. We're gonna FORCE you to do it because the law says we can," you would support me if I said I didn't want to do it? You would support changing the laws so they CAN'T force me anymore?
Is that what this thread is really about?No laws force you to become pregnant.
Horray for those laws!What about laws that force me to REMAIN pregnant?
Once you become pregnant, you're eating for two.If a woman finds that she is pregnant, then she should not be forced to remain pregnant any longer than she desires. To say that she must remain pregnant for any period of time after she desires to not be pregnant is to rob her of her bodily autonomy.

Why is the life of that person at stake? who's threatening that person's life?Oh, so if the life of one person is at stake, then the bodily autonomy of the other person can be ignored, is that it?
Yes, I would support you if you didn't want to do it.
And yes, I would be in favor of hanging the laws so they can't force you anymore.
And executed.So if it's a child dying by abortion, then it's a crime and I should be charged.
I never thought you'd compare a child to a kidney.I'm surprised. I never thought you'd be pro-choice.

Correct. Only one of them is murder.So if it's a child dying by abortion, then it's a crime and I should be charged.
If it's a child dying because I refuse to be an organ donor, then I'm well within my rights and while many people will think I'm wrong, they won't say I need to be punished by the law.
Correct. Only one of them is murder.
Because one is killing another person. If you can’t understand the difference between killing someone and someone dying, then I’m at a loss as how to proceed.How so? In both cases I refuse to allow a part of my body to be used to preserve the life of another. Why is one a murder but the other isn't?
There's a difference between a kid and a kidney.Correction - I'm comparing a uterus to a kidney.
Bodily autonomy is limited to one's own body.Or any other tissue. Do we not have bodily autonomy?

The parallel you are attempting to draw between a kidney transplant procedure and the direct abortion of a child fails. Change the challenge from "my kidney" to "another's heart" and then think it through.
