I really don't know what to tell you. You said "that's not a false equivalency" and then proceeded to give ample evidence as to why it is.

Fertilization is a critical step in the cycle. Is it the only critical step? No. Is it the step we should use to make our laws? That's not a biology question.
The point of an equivalency is to point out a flawed argument by being equivalent on the point that matters and not equivalent on those that do not. The only 100% equivalency possible would something that was identical. But there is no point in something like that.diehard03 said:

To be fair, having a child be born then decide it shouldn't live is pretty extreme.Quad Dog said:To be fair, here's the full quote from Gov. NorthamPro Sandy said:Governor of Virginia is for T+ hours from birth abortiondiehard03 said:Quote:

it's a good thing that no one believes in abortion at T-"several hours from birth".
"The infant would be delivered. The infant would be kept comfortable. The infant would be resuscitated if that's what the mother and the family desired, and then a discussion would ensue between the physicians and the mother"
"When we talk about third trimester abortions it's done in cases where there may be severe deformities, there may be a fetus that is non-viable," Northam said. "If a mother is in labor, I can tell you exactly what would happen. The infant would be delivered. The infant would be kept comfortable. The infant would be resuscitated if that's what the mother and the family desired, and then a discussion would ensue between the physicians and the mother."
Discussing nonviable births or later term abortions of severe deformities is very different from late term abortions of healthy babies. I'm not saying there aren't people out there in favor of abortion at any time because they are out there. But I would classify them as on the extreme.
