Re: Venting Thread

I'll keep the organ donation argument in mind, it has merit, I agree, but I feel I'm gonna run in to the same problem I have with the stranger in the basement argument: It's not exactly the same situation because in the case of pregnancy the person is partly responsible for the existence of the life's very existence.

Like if I made a stupid decision - drink driving for example - and it lead to someone needing a liver donation, would I support a law that forced the driver to have to give up a lobe of their liver to ensure the life of the victim?

Yeah... I kinda would. Again I have some wriggle rom because it's not the exact same situation because DUI is illegal, but the thrust is still the same, isn't it? Make a decision that leads to someone needing a liver donation - You should have to make that situation right and yeah, donate a some of your liver if you can.

If you made a perfectly reasonable everyday decision like driving completely sober, driving safely, and got into an accident that resulted in another person being injured in such a way that they required a liver donation, would you support a law that forced you to give up a lobe of your liver? Because having sex is a pretty normal everyday activity, not a deliberately negligent high-risk one.

Or, more germane to the argument that a pregnant woman is partly responsible for the existence of the fetus, would you be in favor of a law that would require you to donate a lobe of your liver to your biological child? You're partly responsible for their existence, and you're also partly responsible for the genes that increase their chance of liver disease.

And, since abortion restrictions only impact people who have a uterus, would you be okay with this hypothetical liver donation law only being applied to people who were born with testicles? If it aids the thought exercise, let's pretend that we have some new science that proves only people who were born with testicles can successfully do live liver donation.

You're always going to run into the same problem, no matter the argument you attempt, because there is no perfect analogy. There is no other circumstance under which one human being is entirely physically dependent on one single other human being for all of their physical needs, to the detriment of that other human being's health and ability to fully participate in their own life.
