It's the definition of insanity.
The abortion topic is interesting because we're talking about how we socially define a human life in a realm where science can't help at all (or at least has failed to give a concrete answer thus far). If it was an accepted truth that human life begins at conception, then abortion is murder. Even our laws reflect that at a certain stage prior to a baby exiting the uterus the thing is, for all intents and peuposes, alive. I actually think using fuzzy privacy prose to defend the right to terminate something that may or may not be conscious or "human" is really a stretch.

Anyway for all the other stuff I agree: insane.
