The leap in logic is that rape is why any of us exist right now. I know you have your idealistic views on mankind but rape was the natural form of reproduction since the Paleolithic era meaning none of us would exist without rape and if babies spawned by rape were killed again none of us would exist. So why should a baby produced by rape be killed if you wont agree to not killing yourself?


do know what the definition of rape is?

Rape is non consensual sex.

He knows. His argument is that prehistoric men did not care about consent but just took what they wanted whenever they wanted - meaning that we are all descendants of rapists.

Which may be true. But is still a silly argument.

Indeed and for the longest time human men didnt once give a damn about women consenting to sex they just raped them anytime they wanted, and that rape is what eventually lead to us existing. So if you support killing rape babies you support ending the current human race that are already rape babies.

I wonder if he has considered the fact that even if rape may have been legal in some primordial state of nature it no longer is and hasn't been for a very long time.

You clearly are ignorant of history too. Provide a source for that outrageous claim. And even if its true it doesn't make it right.

If we're doing appeals to history (not that I accept your unsourced claim for a minute), abortion was practised in Ancient Egypt and the Greco-Roman world.

So, there was never a need for a woman to carry a foetus to term if she truly did not wish to.

I resent as a person your apparent idea that males of the human species procreates in general by forcibly violating the females. It is also threadjacking. Now, abortion:

Stop getting offended, you said killing rape babies is wrong so killing the entire human race is fine since we are all the spawn of ancient rapist from the mesolithic era. Come on now at least be consistent with your points.

I guess chimps and gibbons just ask nicely right? Nope they rape all primates rape to reproduce including homini like humans for example. Its only around the start of civilization that humans began seeing rape as wrong.

Because primates don't have mating rituals or anything... :roll:

You know chimpanzees have been known to engage in prostitution, right? They use food where humans would use money, but it's the same deal.

Is this threadjack going to end with you arguing that there is nothing wrong, morally or legally with rape because factually wrong appeal to nature?

Boy getting no offended is hard eh? Again if rape babies are to be aborted then you are also in favor of the death of all of current humanity because they are also the spawn of rapist. Who are you to say that baby should perish and you greatx2000 grandparent didnt at the hands of your maternal greatx2001 grandparent? Just because its formed by rape you think it should die well you might as well just kill yourself and everyone if you want to be logically consistent.

No, they argued that the woman should have the choice to abort or not.
Just like you should have to choice to give me a lifesaving bloodtransfusion or not.

We would very much like it if you choose life; but think your bodily autonomy gives you the right to not be forced into a choice you do not want.

No-one said "should". Forced abortions are as bad as forbidden abortions.

Pro-choice means choice to abort and not abort. In the case of rape, that would mean a woman could abort if she -- the woman or minor girl who was raped -- wishes to exercise her bodily sovereignty to abort.

Would you be evil if you exercised bodily sovereignty and refused to donate bone marrow to a person for whom you are the only match, one who would die without it (though it would cause you no health problems to donate) -- though you didn't want to?

Would you be evil if you exercised your property rights and kicked someone out of your home, when they moved in without permission and are eating all your food and putting muddy boots all over your furniture (when they have nowhere else to go), even if you have a spare room -- though they're rude and you want them to go?

And this somehow seems wrong to you? That a woman shouldnt be forced to give birth to something that is the result of her brutal and traumatic sexual assault? Even then it's not "pro -abortion", its pro allowing the woman to actually have autonomy over her own body and the choice to not have to be further traumatized by carrying and giving birth to a child conceived from rape.

Yes you would be evil for not donating to save someone who actually needs it. No you wouldnt be evil for kicking out a bad roommate, but if you think a foetus is a roommate I suppose your eyes are roommates.
