This is ridiculous.  I am thinking about taking an oath to not even take part in any more abortion debates.  It is the one argument that has no resolution.  People just define "human" differently.  If you can't agree on a definition of a word then there is no way to have a real debate.

I don't believe that a fetus that can not survive without being attached to another human is an "individual" that deserves "individual rights" greater than the rights of the individual it is attached to.  That is the legal argument in its most simple form.   And it leaves the law subject to change when technology advances.  But right now the law is correct.  

You don't need to take an oath, you can just not respond.

As to the Supreme Court as I said' we'll see how they move going forward. In the case I provided I'm not talking about the rights of the fetus; I'm talking about the rights of the parent that attached it.
