77 Years Later

It's a feel-good story that has spread across the nation.  Minka Disbrow was reunited with her daughter she gave up for adoption after 77 years of being apart.  To her amazement, she has discovered a new family tree that includes a noted Space Shuttle astronaut (her grandson), and other notable people leading strong, productive lives as American citizens.

Minka was raped as a teenager, and sent away to give birth and ultimately give up her daughter to be adopted by a minister and his wife.  The initial crime committed against Minka was heinous, but the fruit has been wonderful.  Minka never stopped wondering about her daughter she called Betty Jane, even though the circumstances that brought her into the world were criminal at best.  Now at 100 years old, Minka's life is full as she spends time with her newly-discovered family and compares notes with her daughter and grandchildren.

If Minka were raped today she would likely be turned over to a large abortion clinic, to be told she was the victim and had a right to divest herself of this piece of flesh.  She would be free to kill an innocent child, and move on with her life as she saw fit.  Minka did move on in life, but she gave birth to an innocent child first instead of creating another death, another victim.  Today all of her children celebrate her long and full life.

The NASA Space program would have missed a valuable astronaut if Minka could have aborted her daughter.  Other solid citizens would have never existed as well.  But Minka came through her time of trouble, and the world is better for it.  It proves once again that the "best" human solutions presented today aren't as good as advertised.  In fact, they are not solutions at all, but murderous, evil deeds.  Life can be precious, even if it begins badly.  It makes this national story what it is today.  (Link here to story.)

Those are the things that happen Bobby J when life is disrespected.

In the event life is legally defined at conception, the following actions have always stumped me. Maybe you can help?

What about the 9 months in the womb? How much liability will be assed towards the mother and those in close proximity to the mother in event of miscarriage and birth defects?
If a miscarriage occurs, will the State investigate and conclude 27 people were guilty of introducing second hand smoke to child?
Will the mother be held culpable if she is deemed to be overweight during pregnancy? Will it be okay for the State to mandate the mother’s diet and exercise regime for 9 months?
Will the sewer company have to locate the spontaneous aborted fetus sent down the toilet, so they may give proper burial?
Will birth certificates and names be issued immediately after the sheets are changed?
Will daddy be guilty of incest and or assault for making love to mommy while junior is present?
Will belly babies qualify for welfare?
Will the belly baby be claimed on taxes as dependents?
Can an 18 year old sue parent for improper carriage?
Will home births and midwives be allowed or will all births be conducted at State owned and operated facilities?
How big of a budget will the Federal Department of Womb, be granted? Will this be financed via new taxes or inflationary printing?
Just curious what the full, long term, legal ramifications would be if life was defined at conception?

Should there even be a NASA?

I am sick of paying for nothing.

Much credit should be given the Minister and his wife.

GOD knew me before I was born. Every child is precious. Life begins at conception. Abortion is MURDER, plain and simple.....

Thomas, your comment is based on conjecture. Sam actually has factual evidence that an astronaut came out of this situation.

The kid could have grown up to be a homicidal maniac. Your rationalization is illogical.
