Wow, it’s also impossible for an adult human to become a baby, can we kill them for convenience too? #logicfailure

Don't ask me. It isn't my logic. I'm just illustrating how idiotic it is.

Thanks for the assist, champ.

Ok, you got me. I thought you were possibly the dumbest person I’ve ever encountered. Now I see it’s just satire, well played.

I can never wrap my head around why. It just seems bizarre to me to be OK with destroying a human life up until some point you decided on.
Because you do not LISTEN.

EVERYONE picks a point at which rights will vest, and ALL are arbitrary.

Any position which provides for abortion rights (to ANY extent) seems “bizarre” to YOU, because you clearly believe that “human” rights vest in anything with 23 chromosome pairs (likely from the instant of fertilization), and you simply cannot imagine anyone using a different metric, no matter HOW MANY times it is explained to you.
quote:

Because every single argument you've posted so far can be used to justify killing a 30 year old mentally retarded person.
Taken to its extreme, yes. Just like the arguments of extreme abortion opponents can be taken to the extreme of something as simple as the “Day After” pill, which (among other things) can prevent implantation of a growing (genetically unique) blastocyst onto the uterine wall.

We simply must pick a point (or points) in time at which various rights will vest, and I have zero problem taking the position that legal rights should not vest in a developing homo sapiens at a point long before it has developed any appreciable brain function ... especially when weighed against an infringement upon the rights of a fully-developed human female.

If we vest certain rights (whether at 12 weeks, birth or some later point), I simply am not comfortable with the idea of divesting those rights without due process ... which refutes your point about killing a person who later falls short of expectations in some way.

You believe inconvenience is justification for killing a human life.
And this comment just re-affirms that you do not listen to those who analyze the matter differently than you do.

I agree. We should absolutely support the legal killing of a child if it's inconvenient to the parent or society. Who are we to judge?

The few months a mother is inconvenienced outweighs the potential life of a child.

Last year my brother lost his job and his wife was a stay at home mom. He should've just stabbed his 8 month old in the head, cut him up with a hacksaw, and thrown him in the trash. That way he wouldn't have to be poor or inconvenient.

And it's absolutely their right as a parent. After all, the kid couldn't survive without their constant care, so you might as well kill it.



Now now now, I didn't say all that. Don't go overboard here. A 1.5ish trimester cutoff is fine by me.

What Christian religion do you belong to where masrurbation isn't a sin? It is. And it is unhealthy. But it isn't illegal.

i specifically addressed this response in the op.

The question is how much having a baby vs not having a baby affects the mother
wait, the mother doesn't have to "have" the baby. she can give it up for adoption. all she has to do is deliver the baby and the consequences/justification of that have been addressed in the op

so you can't be taken seriously in this discussion because you are factually wrong. i have already refuted this premise

So you think a fetus is a baby? Please confirm that.

Saying something isn't refuting something, especially when you say something ignorant.

Historically some have argued that it is a grave sin to waste and kill sperm
i would be interested if you could find hostorical precedent that this argument was advanced due to thinking the sperm is actually a living human being as opposed to the POTENTIAL to be a human. HUGE difference. sperm does not have the potential to develop into a human, simplicatur. when fertilized, the egg does. that's where the "line" goes. once fertilization has been established, it is a sapient (for aggie) human being

I find it entertaining that you people feel others should abstain from sex solely to avoid the remote possibility that it might lead to a need for them to engage in a perfectly-legal medical procedure .... just because YOU do not like the procedure.

It's always fun when an undergraduate wraps up their first philosophy course.

Congrats.
