I guess thats the problem then.
You believe we are on equal plains with
animals.
I set us up on a little higher pole.
Aborting is responsible? Never ever will
it be responsible. Ever.
Its as unresponsible as one can get.
Who made me the arbiter of those worthy of
death?
Who made you or pro abortionists? You
think its ok to kill an innocent human. I
think its ok to kill a criminal who has
murdered.
Just a little different. No?

I think humans are aliens. We're a virus
on the .earth. Raping the seas, pillaging
the forests, arrogant in our beliefs that
we are really somethin' special. If we
were this amazing, intelligent creature
"higher" than animals in the arrogance
totem pole, then we wouldn't be destroying
the only environment we live in.

No. We're animals. We are mammals. We
lactate to feed our young and give birth
viviparously. We happen to have the mental
capacity to be aware of all this, but it
doesn't make us any more or any less of an
animal.

Thats how one dehumanizes us. By saying we
are the infection.
Its easy to agree with abortion then. "Hey
thats one less human to rape the planet".
It WILL lead to other things though.
Euthanasia possibly.
As someone who loves history, thats
exactly what occured in Nazi Germany.
Through the twenty's and into the thirties
leading upto WWII, Hitler and his henchmen
strategically put the Jews down. Telling
the people they werent human and actually
a subspecies. Over the years the people of
Germany believed them. Brainwashing? A
little. But more so of them convincing
themselves that the Jews were animals.
Lower than animals. Performing
unbelievable medical experiments. Not
saying that this will happen. But history
can repeat itself. Hitler was very big on
euthanasia. Started out with mentally
retarded and eventually led to elderly and
the insane and so-on.
One wrong WILL beget another if left to
itself. It will be accepted. Just like
abortion. Advocates say its a blob. That
it Cant think or reason. But it is
medically and scientiffically an
individual(which rules out the choice
argument).
Guys and gals no matter how you spin it,
Medically, scientifically, or religously
speaking; abortion is wrong.

I'm for euthanazia. If a terminal cancer
patient is going to die, I say he or she
has the right to pull the plug. If an old
person is in very bad condition, I say
they have the right to pull the plug. My
own great grandmother starved herself to
death on
purpose because doctors wouldn't
let her die any other way. Can you imagine
the will power needed to starve yourself
to death? Can you imagine the horror I had
to go through as a eight year old watching
my "super-gram" shrivel away? She hated
life. There was a more dignified way to
go: euthanasia.

Exterminating and entire race of people is
very different from choosing your own
personal death when faced with a terminal
condition. The jews, the gays, the
gypsies, none of them got a choice. True
euthanasia is a choice, and it's sickening
and degrading to everyone who suffered in
the holocaust that you dare compare the
two.

It is neither medically nor scientifically
an individual. It is a developing animal
(no, it isn't an animal yet. Not an
animal, not a person) that is completely,
100%, irrevocably dependent on the host -
I mean, the mother's body.
It cannot think, it cannot reason at the
stages when most abortions are performed.
Later on in pregnancy, sure, it might be
able to. But that's not when most women
abort. At the time when most abortions
occur, the embryo or fetus cannot even
feel pain. It's like a worm or a bug.
Those animals are fully developed but they
can't feel pain either. Their nervous
systems aren't developed enough. They have
flight or fight responses, as seen when
you cut a worm on half, and when the
embryo or fetus is prodded. But this is
not a pain response. It's an animal
instinct. But wait!!! Humans aren't
animals!! We can't possibly have animal
instincts!!!
I'm sorry, but prenatal science proves you
wrong at every turn.

I didn't say we are on
"equal plains" with animals, I simply
posted the fact that we are animals.
You can set us up higher on the pole all
you want. The fact remains that we are
still animals regardless of where ever
your opinion and esteem place us. The
fact is that we are animals, the opinion
is that we are somehow worth more or
special.

most responsible for her situation.

Fallacy. You presuppose
in your premise and in your conclusion
that which you have not proven. We call
this begging the question, specifically
circular reasoning fallacy. Namely that a
fetus is a human person comparable to a
convicted felon, or myself, or yourself.
I can end my pregnancies as I so choose
because they are all dependent upon my
body and my body alone. A convicted felon
is not dependent upon anyone's body. The
dependency of the fetus makes it an
expendable part of the .woman's anatomy if
she decides she does not want to donate to
it any longer, much like a cancer, mole,
or her hair. The convicted felon is an
independent, live, sentient, human person
whose rights have been removed through due
process. The fetus does not have rights
to begin with again due to its nature and
relationship to the .woman and thus, due
process is not needed to end the
pregnancy.
You presuppose and hold as fact that fetus
= human person and yet have not proven
your assertion. As such, it is simply an
opinion.
| Quote: |
tr> | Just a little

No? |
Not in the way you
assume or believe but yes, they are
different because one is dependent on the
.woman's body and the other is not. The
monikers of "innocent" and "guilty" are
smokescreens and irrelevant to the topic
at hand.

That isn't the problem. No one said we
were equals with animals. We are superior
to animals in many ways, that is obvious.
We are mammals though. And killing is
still killing. It isn't up to you whether
or not one is just as bad as the other.

Fallacy. That wasn't
euthanasia at all. It was extermination.
In legal euthenasia, the patient has a
choice.
| Quote: |

Fallacy, slippery slope.
If you make an assertion like this you
have to show how it will happen, step by
step. Otherwise you are simply sliding
down that slippery slope with no evidence
that it actually will occur at all. The
same thing happens with some so-called
"pro-family" groups who claim that two
homosexual's being able to marry will
somehow allow Bubba to marry his prize
milk cow Bessie. In reality, it's a
slippery slope fallacy perpetrated to make
people afraid that the world will end
shortly after taking that first step.
However, nothing could be further from the
truth.

A blastocyst is a blob,

| Quote: |

A fetus can't think or
reason, not for a very long time into the
pregnancy when abortions are generally
outlawed but to save the health or life of
the .woman.

No, it is medically and
scientifically dependent upon the .woman's
body. The symbiotic relationship is
actually what makes choice possible and
very relavent.

Um,
Have you ever once seen any one of us
claim that the embryo/fetus is not alive?
You haven't seen us claim that, because
its not true. So before you go flying off
the handle, realize one important thing:
Pro-choice is aware that the zef is
"alive". How can it not be? An egg is
alive and a sperm is alive. Two living
things doesn't equal something dead.
However, pro-choice is capable of
realizing when someone's life is worth
more than another's.
Just as I don't think humans are above
animals... Do you think your life is worth
more than a cow's? I bet you do,
especially if you're not vegetarian. But,
you still know "I need food to eat. I cn
kill a cow, or starve". I'm simplifying.
Let's pretend you're alone in the wild.
Fish, which you can catch, make a good
meal. Is their life worth more than yours?
That argument goes for every single
carnivore and omnivore (that's the kind of
animal humans are) in the world.
Moving on, most women don't
regret their abortions.

to grow a fetus needs water and nutrients
duh
thats how babies form.
abortions on some states could be done up
to 13 weeks of pregnancy. do you know by
13 weeks a fetus actually LOOKS like a
formed baby?
a woman whos made a mistake shouldnt beat
herself up over it for the rest of her
life
i think its a choice that parenst have to
make :keep it or not
its no ones decition but theres
and everyone has their own opinions
it will always be an ongoing thing and
never end with one agreement
like polotics
that what abortion is is politics
