Re: No obligation to let others use your body.

Late termination of pregnancy - Wikipedia
Late termination of pregnancy,also known as postviability abortion

Let’s read a bit more, shall we ?
Late termination of pregnancy is more controversial than abortion in general because it results in the death of a fetus that is more developed and sometimes able to survive independently.
Late-term abortions are rare with about 1.3% of abortions taking place after the 21st week of pregnancy, and less than 1% occuring after 24 weeks.[4] Late-term abortions usually take place when the mother's health is at serious risk or when fatal abnormalities have been detected.[4]

The way to avoid this conflict is to avoid getting pregnant. It's not impossible, but gosh, that too requires us to give up our liberty, doesn't it?
Tell that to a rape victim.
And, of course, this is why contraception is one of the best ways to fight abortion. Perhaps you should ask yourself why so many “pro-life” people are against that. (Maybe it will even help if I point out that the Catholic Church has a lot to do with that).

Oh golly gosh. Yes dear, there is the rare case of a pregnancy due to rape where she can't control it. Always we make the rare case the standard around here don't we
No we don’t. But it is a case that must be considered and a case where many feel that exceptions should be allowed.
So, are you going to say that women who get pregnant by rape should be forced to go through with the pregnancy despite the obvious stress ?

Re: No obligation to let others use your body.
I’m sure that she’s proud of it.
I also note that in this discussion Faith is unwilling to discuss the issue of contraception as a way of preventing abortion or the issue of exceptions for rape victims.
