They at least have the fallback of faith. What's your excuse?
I don't require faith because natural law is self-evident to virtually every person on the planet. Those who don't recognize natural law/natural rights are among a very small minority.

If you are speaking legally, I believe that only applies in some states and during some period of the pregnancy. Morally, I believe that is a simplistic approach and a pretty crumby attitude.
I was speaking biologically and in the sense of natural law not governmental law which is much lower than natural law. A fetus is not a person biologically and therefore is not yet entitled to the natural rights of a person. And personally I find it to be a great attitude and I wish everyone had it. The attitude of allowing others to decide for themselves what they will or won't do with thier bodies, lives, minds, etc. without government interference is wonderful indeed.
