I think Lost is a having a bad day, today... (all my best, Lost)...
...but, I see his point...
When you have no dog in the fight, the rhetoric is that much clearer...
There really is no comparative to a poached lion and an aborted fetus...
Ultimately... I see this issue as a difference in perspective...
One can define a human "life" as any collection of cells with DNA that is human (although, this might make clipping your nails more painful)...
... or,... it could be defined as any human DNA that is gestated long enough to be viable...
Beyond that,...(roughly 3rd trimester,... I would still justify termination if the life of the mother, or the viability of the fetus were an issue...
Regardless,... a dentist, with a Putin sized thingy,.. does not enter the equation...
The real disagreement,.. is as to whether a bundle of human DNA, is a person...
... and also, whether human life is so precious, that it can never ever be sacrificed, even for mercy sakes...
We do have DNR requests.... and in a "free" country, you might expect that you have the right to your own life (although even that is disputed)...
I would say,...although it's easy to paint the world in black and white,.. it's the shades that matter...
