His comparison of abortion to "puppy murder" is a stretch, and a poor one - agreed. But I agree very much with this statement:<br /><br />"If human life has an intrinsic value, then it must possess that value in all situations and through all stages, otherwise the value is not intrinsic — it is earned, acquired, and conditional."<br /><br />Could he have handled this entire argument better? Absolutely. And it would perhaps be better coming from a woman, since he cannot actually ever experience this particular situation. But I agree with him, that circumstances, however tragic and compelling, do not negate the intrinsic value of human life, at any stage.<br /><br />And on that note, I agree with you 100%, that our society is failing to value the lives of the "already born" among us, whose circumstances lead to the very question of abortion in the first place.
