You're an idiot.

Never have I used the argument that it "feels pain"*. That only leads down a slippery slope, and is just a weak argument. A lot of things feel. Does that make it wrong to euthanize our pets? Is it wrong to hunt and eat meat?

I'm pro-life, but I'm also pro-euthanasia/mercy killings. If something/someone is in pain and/or has absolutely no foreseeable future, especially no autonomous, happy future, then it's proper to put the being out of its misery.

Oh, and it can't feel. It can't feel until the third trimester...

electroencephalography suggests the capacity for functional pain perception in preterm neonates probably does not exist before 29 or 30 weeks

* I know you never said that I have used the argument. You did, however, say that anybody against abortion should be against killing the child and that "pain" is a "main" argument against abortion. Seeing as I'm pro-life, you 'implied' that I've used the argument or would support it.


whoa.
