Nick:

I think if you will pardon my saying so, that you are twisting things about a bit.

The inspiration of those women or their handlers was an entrenched, devout theistic religion.

Your assertion, which I believe to be only a rhetorical device, that their treatment could be construed as the same as an embryo in the eyes of a pro-choice adviocate, is seriously off base, and requires really twisted logic.

Finally, I do not recall your having demonstrated what you claim to demonstrate about a God-inspired moral code, nor do I see ANY basis for the implication that a moral code based on a postulated deity has any merit by that reason, that would make it stand apart from a well thought-out moral code evolved by an individual consulting his own inherent sense of justice and right action.
