Why do Pro-Lifers have Two Kidneys?

I often hear the arguement made (as it's going on in another thread today) that the 'inconvience' of being pregnant for 9 months and giving birth should be forced upon all women for the sake of another life. After all, what's 9 months of inconvience, even if there are substantial risks in any birth, compared to saving a life.

Why then haven't all pro-lifers gone out and donated skin, kidneys, pieces of liver, blood and bone marrow. By refusing to be inconvienced themselves, they're condemning living breathing human beings to death.

After all, the full recuperation time for kidney donation is only 12 weeks, not 9 months. If the pro-lifers on this board haven't yet donated their surplus organs and tissues, why? Why have you chosen to let others die for your own convience?

Ah, good point, if pro-abortionists are so pro-choice, why aren't they cutting pieces off their bodies to let these suffering patients "CHOOSE" to use their extra parts?

Umm, I hope that shows how ridiculus your statement was. :)

nope, just shows how ridiculous you are. pro-choice does not mean pro-abortion, therefore someone that is pro-choice will not automatically run out to get an abortion. pro-choice simply means that one believes in the right for someone to CHOOSE, and that the government should not be involved in that choice.

Maybe cause they are scared of those big scary places called hospitals! :eek: Who knows, they might accidentally get an abortion! Can't have that happening!

The truth is, I might not even try to save you if you were drowning, but I would save your baby. So when I say I'm pro-life, it might not include your life. :)


Just kiddin' ;)

It's only ridiculous to you because then it'll be -your- body, your time, your financial stability that the government is forcing you to risk so another can live. You're perfectly fine when it's other people though.

You know what that's called folks?

Hypocracy

We have a pro-choice system in place for organ donation. And because we recognize that people have the right to choose not to offer up their organs people die from it, children die from it, mothers die from it, cute widdle babies that you cared about until the head cleared die from it.

And yet I don't see you rallying to have everyone blood typed and indexed at birth so we can summon forth the needed donar to save their lives.

Seriously that has to be one of the most moronic statements I have ever heard.

It's at the same level as some of the statements made by another person... (not you btw :) )

It's far easier to try to make someone follow your rules and deal with the consequences, than to follow them yourself.

Which was the point :D

(not that I haven't used a similar arguement legitimately in a nice rhetoric filled debate before)

What bothers me sometimes is that we only have one liver.

So they can take a Baat Fun Jin Choy from either side.
