re: The next time a pro-abortion zealot denies that status, show them this.

My mother was once a zygote.
My mother was once a toddler.
My mother was once a teenager.

CSB.

Too bad their mamas weren't pro-abortion.

There’s no gap, there’s your problem.

I know y'all generally know frick all about biology, but that's new.

quote:

---

Equally human, equally a member of the species.

---

Being a member of the human species doesn't grant special status. You're OK with killing. You just have a different line.

quote:

---

Arguing otherwise is simply saying you can kill someone based on their age.

Once you hit 80 I’m sure you’re ok with killing them as they’re of minimal use to society

---

Trying to insert "someone" is where your argument falls on its face. You move from "human species" to "personhood" with that one, and you're going to lose every time.

quote:

---

You didn’t know both are members of the same species? Son that’s basic biology.

---

OK, so biology isn't your only issue. You also know frick all about English.

quote:

---

True. I don’t believe killing someone who has committed no crime is ok. You do.

---

Nope.

quote:

---

Actually it doesn’t. I’ve not argued of a concept of “personhood”. You introduced that, in the hopes it would help your argument or change its direction.

Hint: it doesn’t

---

There's that English coming to get you again...

quote:

---

some·one
pronoun

1.
an unknown or unspecified person; some person.
"there's someone at the door"

This baby was born weighing less than one pound.

And lived.

And when a liberal has no argument against the facts

“Your grammar is bad”

I never claimed to be an English major, by and large I’ve found them to be utterly useless.

I’m guessing that was your major.

....aaaaaand here we go with the "if you don't see things my way, you're a liberal" shite.

Pathetic.

quote:

---

“Your grammar is bad”

---

It isn't about grammar. Words have meaning if you want useful discussion. You've specifically framed your argument, even if unintentionally, that personhood begins immediately at conception.

It doesn't, and there's your gap.

You guessed wrong. English is one of those things you can do well, even without a college education.

---

Except of course, I specifically defined them as individual members of the same species. I’m sure you didn’t miss that, just hoped to ignore it.

You liberals have tried to redefine value in the species by whom is “a person”

Non-person. Now where have we heard that phrase used, and what was the justification….

In about what percentage of the time does the use of, or attempt to use, a condom fail to prevent a pregnancy?

Then DON’T. HAVE. SEX.

I think it's compelling that none of you anti-abortion screamers seem to be aware of the fact that the anti- abortion movement in the U.S. was started as the result of a political ploy by Republicans, and supported by Evangelicals -- to get Reagan elected.
