Re: is there anyone else who is pro-life AND pro-gay rights, or is it just me?
I asked a clarifying question. I think ya'll took it as a statement.

ME: ...'pro-choicers' view the fetus as an extension of the female form while 'pro-lifers' view the fetus as its own entity with its own rights.
COCOPHONY: wrong. so very very wrong.
ME: so you think a fetus is a unique human being (with civil liberties?) but also believe that ending the life of said fetus is only taking control of your own health? [NOTE: "only taking control of your own health" = "not taking control of another person's health as well"]

I thought some of her views could contradict each other depending on her beliefs, but she never actually clarified what her beliefs were. I'm not even sure what she thinks a fetus is... that's not an insult, I just have no idea what I'm discussing with who I'm discussing it with. If I use a question mark, that means I would actually like an answer. CONFUSING, I KNOW! She could have said, "No you're totally wrong" and that would have been more constructive.

I appreciate her perspective on pregnancy just as much as the next fully developed fetus, but I don't feel like I know her reasoning well enough to discuss it in a debate.
