Summary: 

[]
	Human fetuses are no humans, and may be aborted. Since birth does
	not miraculously brew "humans", the only logical limit is when
	it becomes clear that a child is reasonable. So I think parents
	should have the right to "kill" their children till something
	like the age of 12. In fact in Japan this is already an accepted
	point of view. Why would it suddenly be murder t " kill" a baby
	that two days ago still was a "fetus" and so possible subject to
	abortion? The natural limit would be this: At the moment a child
	would be able to live after being rejected by its parents, it
	could. Being removed from a womb is such a form of rejection.
	(In fact, this is also a [Ll]ibertarian idea: nobody has the duty
	to care for someone else, and children are held responsible for
	themselves)

I utterly disagree with everything you are saying, but I am
prepared to fight myself to death for your right to say it.
