If abortion (The killing of an unborn human.) is illegal, why isn't masturbation? When you masturbate you are basicly killing unborn humans. So why is it legal?

Firstly, abortion isn't illegal.

Secondly, the justification usually given is that a fetus is a potential human, since it has a full set of chromosomes, while sperm are utterly useless until one fertilizes the ovum.

Not sure where your at that abortion is illegal, but its not where I'm at. Also, sperm, just as with a fertilized egg, is not a human being. Never was. Never will be.

Um, most of the time, it won't. 60-80% of all fertilized eggs fail to implant and are washed out during the woman's period.

That’s why menstruation should be illegal.;)

Does that mean we'll start seeing anti-abortion protesters marching down the streets with bloody tampons in their hands chanting "save the children?"

Ya....men would go to hell a trillion times for that. Sperm also die and are absorbed by the body if not 'released'.

Every sperm is sacred...
Every sperm is great...
If a sperm is wasted..
God gets quite irate...

Come on, you knew it was coming (No pun intended)

Um, I'm pretty sure that "will be a human being" and "is a human being" are two very different things, silly.

I know what I said. A fertilized never can be considered a human being. It never will be considered a human being. It will become a human being. But it, in and of itself, never can be, will be, should be, considered a human being. Let's not over complicate this with semantics, ok?

Abortion is not universally illegal. Only in backward places like South Dakota.;)

According to the Roman Catholic Church male masturbation is a sin for that reason. :rolleyes:

Not really. The problem is not the slaughter of sperm, it's the "unnatural" use of a sex organ for non-procreative purposes.

Must have changed the theology then as 50 years ago it was killing all those sperm. We only killed them late Sunday night through Friday because we went to Confession Saturday night to confess to killing them, then had to "stay pure" until after Communion on Sunday morning. :D

Question 2: in general, when a woman gets pregnant, only one of the mans sperms actually made it. All the others, which also could have become humans, died.
So.. why is this legal ?

If such did happen, I would not be surprised in the least.
