Meanwhile, Across the Pond in Sarah Brady Paradise...

[N]ewborn babies are not “actual persons” and do not have a “moral right to life”. [More]
And how do "Practical Ethics" advocates describe anyone who might vehemently disagree, and who deem that way, when extrapolated to its logical conclusion, leads to holocausts?

Oh, that's easy. You're “fanatics opposed to the very values of a liberal society.”

Guilty. To my last breath.

"The moral status of an infant is equivalent to that of a fetus..."

perfectly true.

"...in the sense that both lack those properties that justify the attribution of a right to life to an individual."

i could just reword this as "in sofar as that it serves our purposes."

the potential for the future experience of time is life itself. the present is without value if not for future expectations.

this paper has dealt a critical blow to abortion and simply does not realize it. eventually, people will notice that there is no way to show that the premise is false.
