the conundra

‘may i pose to you a mental conundrum?’

‘you know i am always open for philosophizing.’

‘is it perfectly acceptable to perform abortion on an animal?’

‘i like neither of the pathways i see before me. i do not condone such action though if i respond in negative fashion, you will ask if man is then no better than an animal. if i respond that the choice should alone be up to the parent animal, you will point out such absurdity. it is acceptable to perform such an abortion.’

‘so then by this admission you are allowing that an animal is an animal before it exits the womb. why then is a human not a human before it exits the womb. it is in a state of being (therefore a being) and i believe it is not classified outside of homo sapiens. it is therefore a human being. to kill a human being is against most (if not all) objective laws whether of God or man. such killing is willful homicide since it is by choice and is punishable by either an extensive prison sentence or by the death penalty. by your admission that animal abortions are acceptable i have come to the conclusion that the doctors, nurses, and mothers (perhaps with other family members and practitioners of medicine) of aborted human beings are to be punished by applicable laws.
