Sounds like a good opportunity for 340 students who didn't get in to get a chance.

picked the lowest approval poll I could find through a search. Most are a higher approval percentage. 70-75%


Link them because all I’ve seen are polls stating the exact opposite. Most Americans are not ok with most or all cases of abortions.

What the frick is an anti-theist?


The word is old, having appeared in dictionaries since the 1700s. In modern times, the term has primarily been used by antitheist to identify themselves as different from simply being atheists.

From

Atheism and Anti-Theism: What's the Difference?
quote:

Anti-theism requires more than either merely disbelieving in gods or even denying the existence of gods. Anti-theism requires a couple of specific and additional beliefs: first, that theism is harmful to the believer, harmful to society, harmful to politics, harmful, to culture, etc.; second, that theism can and should be countered in order to reduce the harm it causes.

An atheist, someone whom doesn’t believe in God or a higher power.

The term theist has been around for thousands of years, since the ancient Greeks, you know the civilization that all western civilization is based upon. Kind of like the Hippocratic oath has some relevance in that conversation somewhere.

Looking at the video most of the students stayed and it did not look like 340 students leaving.

This is the kind of people hospitals want. These are doctors value life with $$$ and hospitals are in the business to make $$$.

Even if your numbers are accurate, which I’d like to see via a link, you’re still talking about 25% of the population who would agree with this speaker. It’s not as though she’s standing up there saying the world is flat. If you have a patient who has views that 1/4 people share, I’d say that’s worth hearing as you’ll undoubtedly encounter other individuals with similar opinions over the course of your career.

You people are in the minority. BTW: This is a leftist propaganda site I got this from.

Most Americans are against abortion on demand.

They should have just gone to the White House for a peaceful protest to voice their opinions.

And not because they have a different opinion. But because they lack the maturity to tolerate a different opinion from theirs.




Can you imagine being so fragile and self-absorbed that you couldn't sit through a 10 min speech from someone that had a differing opinion? It's amazing/sad.

That may be the case. I would posit that they lack courage in their convictions. They have doubt, which all of us should at that age. But to deny themselves the opportunity to hear someone from their field, give advice on practically anything, shows cowardice and close-mindedness.
Make them all do a lengthy paper on the issue...

Perhaps the most deceptive misnomer of our lifetimes. Infanticide has little to do with reproduction.



100% agree.

The reproduction already happened when the child was conceived. Killing the baby after reproduction happened is not birth control. It’s infanticide
