Polish Wolf, I am responding to one of your earlier posts. Specifically your statement, “To place, as is being done in Nicaragua, the life of the unborn ahead of the life of the mother is directly opposed to scriptural teachings which make a clear distinction between actual and potential life.”

First of all, the rights of the unborn do not supercede the rights of the mother. Conversely, the rights of the adult never supercede the rights of the unborn. Niether has a superceding authority.

The mother has the right to live, as well as the unborn child.

The mother does not have the right kill the child nor the child kill the adult.

Also, the definition of actual and potential life has no bearing in this conversation. We are talking about humans, not sperm or egg cells. Any way you try to slice it, once the egg is fertilized by the sperm it is human as evidenced by 42 chromosomes. Once that is established, you can then follow the logic to discern whether a human a person OR a person a human. If you get in on the wrong side of the question, you get Dred Scott, Nazism, and Roe. Get it right, and the logic that all humans are persons and all people have the right to life follows.

Speaking to the exception that abortion can be done to save the life of the mother deserves attention. A tubal pregnancy is not ended in an abortion. In this case, the loss of the child must be so as to save the life of the mother. Uninterrupted, they both will die. It is a medical condition where the treatment is applied appropriately with dignity and sadness. The child is not sucked out with a vacuum after being burned with chemicals nor is it delivered partially only to puncture its skull and destroy its brain. The mother will lose a fallopian tube (and a child) in the process.
