Those of you who equate abortion to “killing babies” are you OK with teenagers having “wet dreams” and menstruating?

Asked by Kardamom (33298points) June 7th, 2018 from iPhone

When teenagers have “wet dreams” and menstruate, they are effectively allowing their live sperm and eggs, which are “potential children” to die, by not allowing themselves to get pregnant (or impregnate) and allow those live sperm and eggs to create a pregnancy that comes to full term.

There are many stages of live human cells becoming “potential” human beings. I don’t believe that fetuses are any more a real baby than are sperm, or eggs. All of those things are potential human beings, but they are not actual human beings. Skin cells are alive. Skin cells could be used to clone human beings. If we scrape skin cells off of our feet, are we “killing babies”?

I do not believe in a god, or higher power, so that doesn’t even play into it.

There a billions of people on earth who do not believe in, nor are they aware of, a “Christian deity”. Are those people stupid, fucked, and wrong? Should those people, who don’t believe in a “Christian deity” (whatever that means) be shunned, or killed, eliminated from society, or simply be forced to follow “Christian laws”?
