- But Mr. Stevens doesn't believe himself that a fetus is a human being
- with equivalent rights to a newborn baby. After all, he is apparently
- willing to kill said fetus should it's father have commited the crime
- of rape. I don't know what he's fussing about, unless he's just trying
- to punish women for having sex.
