Thirty-eight states treat the killing of an unborn child as a form of homicide. They have what are called “fetal homicide laws.” It is illegal to take the life of the unborn if the mother wants the baby, but it is legal to take the life of the unborn if she doesn’t. In the first case the law treats the fetus as a human with rights; in the second case the law treats the fetus as non-human with no rights. Humanness is thus defined by the desire of the strong. Might makes right. We reject this right to define personhood in the case of Nazi anti-Semitism, Confederate race-based slavery, and Soviet Gulags. When we define the humanness of the unborn by the will of the powerful we know what we are doing.

INSTRUCTIONS

1.  In large bowl, mix 4 dry ingredients and make well in centre.
2.  In separate bowl, beat eggs, then mix in butter and milk.  Pour into
flour mixture and stir to moisten (don't worry about lumps).  Add more milk
or flour to make thinner or thicker pancakes.  Fold in banana.
3.  Drop by tbsp on oiled 380F (190C) pan, hot enough that water droplets

Bananas will turn brown as pancakes cool, but will not affect taste.  Do
not freze.

not make too large or overcook.
