- Breathing and birth are both simply biological processes. It is absurd
- to think that anyone could legally force a biological process on anyone.
- But just so's you can put it in perspective, ceasing to breath brings
- extremely quick, for all practical purposes instant, death, whereas
- birth in the vast majority of cases does not. Therefore, it makes far
- more sense to speak of breathing as forced, than it does to speak of
- birth as such.
