Human Property

Joe Carter of the Evangelical Outpost has an excellent and short item showing how pro-abortion advocates have seriously attempted to argue that human embryos are personal property. If the fetus is property, then the "owner" has rights if that property is destroyed by another. But if the property is not wanted, the "owner" has the right to destroy it. It is just another clever legal reshuffling of the "every child a wanted child" slogan, but it also amazing for its callousness and similarity to arguments in favor of slavery.
