    Extreme examples don’t disprove the general rule.
    Yeah, but what he asked was about the extreme example. What's your answer?

        And their amazing mind reading skills to tell us exactly what we would do.
        The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

          So, what is your answer? Yes or no? BTC and Pix have refused to answer with a clear yes or no?

              Matters of life and death often go far beyond some internet 's jackass attempt to force a "yes or no" on a hypothetical just so he can "win" an arugument.

                Well, I made it clear I cannot answer the question myself, so I cannot blame others for not giving one as long as they do not claim to have done so.

                Pro tip: skip the ad hominems.

                      Sweety, you don’t answer loaded questions with a yes or no because the answer depends on the circumstances involved.

                        So, now you refuse to answer after having claimed it was already answered. I will leave you to making your claims and contradictions.

                          • Interesting that not one anti-abortionist can answer this question. You'd think it was a difficult question to answer. Yes or no, the 11 year old should be forced to carry the pregnancy to term. Are you conflicted, is that the problem?

                              • I'll answer it. It's not hard from a pro-life perspective. Yes, the 11 year old should not be permitted to have an abortion unless their life is truly at risk. A C-section delivery would be the least bad option for all parties (including the baby who did not ask to be conceived via rape). The rapist should have to turn over their life's savings to the child before entering prison, and it would be wholly appropriate for the government to ensure that the child has any educational, physical and mental health resources available.
                                "I am not angered that the Moral Majority boys campaign against abortion. I am angry when the same men who say, "Save OUR children" bellow "Build more and bigger bombers." That's right! Blast the children in other nations into eternity, or limbless misery as they lay crippled from "OUR" bombers! This does not jell." - Leonard Ravenhill
