Just what is the significance of an insensate, fetus without a functioning brain, that is unable to survive outside the mother's body? Does the mother have no rights of her own?

Does the mother have no rights of her own?The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

Yet another handwave and mischaracterization of the facts provided from Tassman, evincing his inability to deal with the facts and usual doubling down on an assertion he couldn't back up in the first place.Veritas vos Liberabit<>< Learn Greek <>< Look here for an Orthodox Church in America<><Ancient Faith Radio

It is a difficult decision for just about any woman to make.
Sympathy for them and their difficult decisions is more appropriate than callously attacking them.The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

2) While you are pretending to be concerned about the "mother", you might consider the health of the mother after abortion...

Rights come with responsibilities. To claim one and dismiss the other is the height of arrogance.

This doesn't alter the reality that that during the first trimester, when virtually all terminations occur, the embryo/fetus is insensate and has no functioning brain.
2) So, you're against ALL abortions after the first trimester?
What are the rights of the mother?
Does she have any in your judgemental scenario
or is she getting what she deserves for her reckless promiscuity. What about abortion under such conditions as rape, incest, clear evidence of severe fetal deformity, and carefully ascertained evidence of the likelihood of damage to the emotional, mental, and physical health of the mother?The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

The case created the "trimester" system that:
Gives American women an absolute right to an abortion in the first three months of pregnancy
allows some government regulation in the second trimester of pregnancy
declares that states may restrict or ban abortions in the last trimester as the foetus nears the point where it could live outside the womb; in this trimester a woman can obtain an abortion despite any legal ban only if doctors certify it is necessary to save her life or health.
