Can a woman give birth to a child and if that child later needs some type of organ transplant can the woman demand the bio father donate a kidney or portion of his liver

It matters. Direct euthanasia is morally wrong. If they are at the end of their life and the body is shutting down, then extraordinary means need not to be taken to keep someone alive, but they should be given good palliative care. See the link below for a more comprehensive explanation.

I am not a Catholic. Why should that Catholic explanation mean anything in a secular government.
Ha ha. Next you'll tell us science can define "love".
Let say some individual rapes a little kid. Is that individual human? Me, I say no. I say it's an animal that should put down like any other rabid animal. What's science say?
Sure, science can tell us when there's a heartbeat or when a fetus might survive being removed from the womb. But science cannot, and does not, tell us what the definition of "human being" is. That's for philosophers, religious leaders, or politicians to speculate about.
Gonna ban the morning after pill then? And what's next after that? Banning contraception and masturbation? We can send teenagers to prison for life for having a wet dream! Yee haw! We're rolling now!
Can we forward all viable sperm to these valiant defenders of all human life?
That works both ways. You cannot claim that an abortion is the same as murdering some individual outside a mother's body. Not at all the same thing.
And if one can define abortion as murder, then what's to stop one from defining the removal of life support as murder? What is to stop government from sending us to prison for smoking cigarettes which we know kills people - it's murder!
I think I saw that politicians in some states, TX perhaps, are looking into restricting the right of mothers to travel out of state in case she decides to seek an abortion elsewhere. Awesome. We can chain the women to their beds, or, you know, the kitchen where they really belong anyway, amirite? Freedom!
The point is that once government decides it's okay to dictate to individuals what they do with their bodies or what's inside their bodies, then what's to stop them from banning all kinds of stuff. What's to stop them from banning living wills that instruct medial pros not to use dialysis or breathing machines or feeding tubes? All those things can be defined as murder if one wants to define it that way.
The idea of prosecuting for miscarriage is absolute insanity. Like, a step or two from burning "witches."
You are beating a dead horse to death hoping that people will see the light about an innocent human life. One’s family history , early school indoctrination and a general so what attitude or lack of responsibility plays a huge part in their beliefs.
“Love is never having to say you’re sorry. “ Now that’s a great saying.
I've always been down with Jesus pointing out that love is the greatest of faith, hope and love. Corinthians 1 13:13.
Not a hell of a lot of folks, Christian or otherwise, these days who seem to adhere to that for some reason. One could be forgiven for thinking most people have translated that into something they're much more comfortable with: "demonization, hypocrisy and hate, but the greatest of these is hate".
Maybe they just think 13 is bad luck?
I’m curious to see how the pregnant woman in Texas fares with her argument that her 8 month old fetus now counts as a person and thus should be allowed to use the HOV lane in Texas.
Other questions I read:
Does a fertilized egg, embryo, or fetus really have the same legal rights as you and your neighbors? When does child support begin? What if a woman from a different country is visiting the U.S., has sex, and becomes pregnant? The U.S. recognizes birthright citizenship, so does that mean that a person who is conceived here is a U.S. citizen?

"I think I saw that politicians in some states, TX perhaps, are looking into restricting the right of mothers to travel out of state in case she decides to seek an abortion elsewhere. "
I wonder if those same politicians ( in states where prostitution is illegal) will place restrictions on the men of that state when it comes to going to a state with legal prostitution and restrict their use of a sex worker .
Some politicians might feel :every sperm counts and that needs to be kept in state of grace
Save the sheep, legalize prostitution
In a sea of stupidity this somehow stands out.
Stop, you’re giving @RUTGERS95 too many good ideas all at once.
That post makes me feel sheepish."I think I saw that politicians in some states, TX perhaps, are looking into restricting the right of mothers to travel out of state in case she decides to seek an abortion elsewhere. "

Banning contraception is definitely on the table. Almost no Republicans voted in support of them today. Twilight zone stuff.
Not a vaccine. Next. Biden has been vaxxed 4x and got it despite telling everyone that the vaccine will keep you from getting the virus on numerous occasions.

Newsweek is right wing????????????????????
Ha! Obviously not but it will be viewed that way because, by posting a left wing rag, I took it out of context.
Keep up son
I thought Newsweek went out of business decades ago.
Anyway, ooh look, a politician stated something that turned out not to be true. I mean, that never happens, right? Certainly no other president in our history has stated something that later turned out not to be true.
In any event, I have an important PSA for folks like @angmo, who think people getting COVID despite being vaccinated means vaccines are bad. For all of you anti-vaxxers, you're absolutely right so whatever you do, please do NOT get vaccinated.

But why do they push the "you won't get it" line? All you have to do is compare the hospitalization rates. Case closed.
Because politicians can’t help but exaggerate and lie. Biden does it. Trump did it. Obama and Bush did it. Goes with the territory.
What cracks me up is people who hang on every word uttered by a politician of “that other party” waiting for an opportunity to pounce and then, when it‘s a politician from their party, doing a 180 and excusing every false or exaggerated utterance with “everybody know what he meant”.
It’s just such a moronic game. And yet people do it their whole lives.
They just like to move the goal posts and then throw a temper tantrum when you call them out. Put them on ignore. It pisses them off. Then they can just shout at empty space. I'm sure some guys I have on ignore will scream at me. A metaphorical banging of one's head against a wall.
I'm here for RU sports. I engage once in a while until it becomes boring.
Yes, you're absolutely right. Biden is the first and only president in the history of the United States to move goal posts.
Nobody's screaming at you. We're laughing at you.

It is a vaccine, literally fits the definition. It’s just no longer and very effective vaccine due to the virus mutating.Not a vaccine. Next. Biden has been vaxxed 4x and got it despite telling everyone that the vaccine will keep you from getting the virus on numerous occasions.

They are picking random weeks to match polling.
In the handful of states against rights they ban. Where they poll more highly (FL, AZ) it's 15 with an asterisk. The others fall in between.
It's only scientific polling not biology.
Oh the last one I am SO looking forward to
Also can fetuses be a deduction on taxes? How about sperm? Are men holding thousands of lives to deduct each day?
Did they not make this claim last year .In the event of a mutation in the virus it will be an easy change to make in the mRNA for a different strain of the virus. See if we did that then all current vaccines would be rendered obsolete. Now we hear nothing about a combined flu/ cov vax. which is something else they put out there to the public.
Yes, you're absolutely right. Biden is the first and only president in the history of the United States to move goal posts.

I thought COVID was only 15 cases and went away with the heat.
Didn't someone say that...someone who struggles to pronounce "yesterday"?
Its an incredibly effective vaccine. While the instances of infection increase over time as the virus evolves, the vaccine still significantly limits instances of severe illness or death. The vaccine has allowed the world to, for the most part, return to normal behavior and activity. There is no rational argument or statistical fact that lends credence to the notion that the vaccines are ineffective,
Those are facts.
Those screaming that the vaccine is ineffective aren’t interested in reality. They are solely interested in winning some intellectually hollow partisan argument. In and of itself, such views are irrelevant, However, over time, these partisan views influence the ignorant and lead to poor choices, which leads to illness and deaths that are avoidable.
I find it hilarious that one of our fellow forum members, who is a self-admitted unrecovered alcoholic who gets drunk every day, thinks vaccines are bad for him.
Anyway, after seeing the overwhelming evidence of infection outcome data, it’s become very clear that the entire COVID anti-vaxxer movement has already begun solving itself, Darwin-style. No point arguing with them. We can just sit back and watch it happen.
Although I suspect more than half the professed anti-vaxxers are sneaking out and getting the vaccines when nobody‘s looking, while chanting the messaging they're handed by the media they consume. Brave souls that they are, they are afraid to fall out of COVID messaging lockstep with their anti-vaxxer buddies, but also afraid to go unvaccinated.
Such brave souls they are. So full of conviction.
Spot on. Regardless of your stance on abortion rights, you have to at least consider the moral delemna of wiping out a potential life.
