You don't read well, do you?

It *IS* a human life regardless of what you or I say, period!

 EH>> The woman should make the "choice" *BEFORE* becoming pregnant.

The woman has the ultimate choice. If she doesn't want to have a child, she
should either abstain from sexual contact or use contraceptives.

Ah, so you forgot it had its own unique DNA? Now, who should go back to sex
education?

It is a *HUMAN* life! It could never be anything other than a human life.
Anyone who thinks otherwise is an idiot and shouldn't be discussing the issue.

 BF>>> Some answers would be appreciated.

 EH>> See above.

 BF> Thanks. At least we are coming somewhere.

I have always provided answers. You must be confused because of the public
nature of this forum. Anyone can and has replied to you. We aren't all the same
person!
