So basically you think it’s okay to rape a child and force her to give birth, because the only thing that matters is the fetus.

Please link to my post where I stated that I believe it is acceptable to rape a child. I think you will find this to be an impossible task. You will also find it impossible to link to a post where I have stated that a prenatal child is all that matters.
I do not value those awaiting their birth over those already born, they both hold the same value. All of us are deserving of human rights, regardless of which side of the cervix we happen to live on or what the cell count of our bodies might be.
The key to properly addressing any situation involving groups of human beings is to first establish their equality. Once you understand that we are all equal and are equally deserving of life, then you can begin your argument for why some should be killed while others should live.
Is it Acceptable to Rape a Child?
It is becoming increasingly difficult to argue that we are all equal. As we see every day, some groups are simply stripped from their right to exist. This is because human dignity is starting to ring hollow, and the epitome of human rights has become the right to do whatever you please and feel good about it in the brief miserable time you spend here (from which aborted children qre graciously spared to begin with, apparently…). We live in a cut flower culture. We have no roots or ground to anything we do or deem valuable. For a while we seemed as if we were alive and thriving, like flowers in a vase, but now the death and decay is kicking in.
