Earlier this week in the Twitterverse, the infamous Richard Dawkins tweeted a few things about abortion that upset even people from his own atheist camp. But the tweet to really kick things into high gear went as follows:
“With respect to those meanings of ‘human’ that are relevant to the morality of abortion, any fetus is less human than an adult pig”
Dawkins did not stop there and proceeded to add fuel to fire by tweeting:
“Unlike many pro-choice friends, I think fetal pain could outweigh woman’s right to control her own body. But pig pain matters too”
His tweets gained the attention of famous comedian and TV personality Joe Rogan who, despite being pro-choice, still does not consider the fetus comparable to a pig. In response to Dawkins and his supporting followers, Joe Rogan tweeted:
“You’re conveniently ignoring the fact that [a fetus] has a heartbeat and will become a person if you don’t kill it.”
Richard Dawkins is the author of such books like The God Delusion and The Blind Watchmaker.
Do you agree with him? Are fetuses the same as adult pigs?

"Doug Giles and his team over at ClashDaily.com cut through the crap to expose what have become modern day human slaughter houses: gun free zones. Their candid arguments about allowing teachers to protect themselves and the students in their care through concealed carry should be taken seriously. As a result maybe, just maybe, we’ll be able to save some lives someday rather than call the cops to report the body count." - Katie Pavlich.

"There were many lessons to draw from the horrific Newtown, CT school shooting. Unfortunately, most of the media and political Left came up with the wrong ones. But not Doug Giles and his writers over at ClashDaily.com. In the wake of this horror, they offered a robust defense of American citizens' right to bear arms and common sense answers to societal violence. The Sandy Hook Massacre: When Seconds Count, the Police are Minutes Away is a great resource for those interested in this vital, Constitutional issue." - S.E.
