re: #772 MJBrutus
Perhaps a woman might. I would consider such an act (saving the fridge) to be monstrously immoral. I hope that the question would cause some who maintain that embryos are babies to ponder why they would save the infant (if they would) and allow a city full of “babies” to perish.
The dichotomy arises because some do not consider self consciousness to be the essence of a human. They consider what I assume they call a soul to be more important and hence saving souls is more important than saving individuals.
I do however think that most people would save the infant, whatever position they might express here. I would attribute that to evolutionary instincts.
