Abstract

IN THIS ESSAY, WE RESPOND TO DUSTIN CRUMMETT’S ARGUMENT THAT ONE CANNOT CONSISTENTLY APPEAL TO BODY COUNT REASONING TO JUSTIFY BEING A SINGLE-ISSUE PRO-LIFE VOTER IF ONE IS ALSO COMMITTED TO THE USUAL RESPONSE TO THE EMBRYO RESCUE CASE. SPECIFICALLY, WE ARGUE THAT A MODIFIED VERSION OF BCR WE CALL BCR* IS CONSISTENT WITH THE USUAL RESPONSE. WE THEN MOVE TO ADDRESS CONCERNS ABOUT THE RELEVANCE OF BCR* TO CRUMMETT’S ORIGINAL THESIS.
