If aqvarivs is equating "taking life" here to abortion (as opposed to, for example, capital punishment, warfare or eating meat), then this makes about as much sense as his demand above that he should be able to meet any potential recipients of his body parts in order to assess their worthiness. One therefore has to conclude that he is still engaging in hypothetical sophistry that privileges the rights and interests of the unborn and deceased over those of the living.
Clever though this may be (at least to him), it is still so much nonsense. I think I should have directed my apology above to the medical profession rather than to aqvarivs, for imagining that one of their number could possibly hold such execrable views.
