Hahaha, you're really not in the position to call anyone on 'holier than thou' attitude.

So by your marvellous logic it's also ok to kill a person in coma because he won't experience anything. It's developing INTO A human, and by killing it, you're denying it a chance to live a human life, and thus my previous statement. No one should have the right to decide whether or not someone should get a chance at life. Abortion is a sickening, disgusting immoral murder.

And where did i ever say i approve of beating up gays? I've witnessed a gay dude getting beat up, it was pretty bad

I assumed that you approved of it in the european country poll thread with this comment " Hahaha lol. It was kinda similar here in Serbia lol.  Thats what they get for not listening to the public and the majority (I assume Georgians were also against having a parade)" But I may have misinterpreted it.

I'll copy paste what I said about it in the thread

They did have it coming. They were dumb to even have a parade there. It makes about as much sense to have a parade in Georgia as it does in Iran or Saudi Arabia. They knew general public was against it, so what did they expect to happen ? That's what i said 'lol'. Not because they were attacked, but because they actually attempted to start the parade.

There is a very important distinction between abortion and killing someone in a coma. With some people, the brain is still active, even though they aren't 'awake'. An old relative of mine got a heart attack, and was unconciouss for a few days, but when he woke up, he could remember what the doctors around him had talked about.

But you said ''it wont experience anything', that's not the situation you described there. There are lots of cases where humans are in vegetable state of coma, they wouldn't experience anything as well, so we should be allowed to kill them too? I mean, they won't experience anything, but they are a living human.

People in comas have had consiousness, and if they would some day wake up, they would probably experience a continued conciousnes. Personally, the only time that I'm in favour of dropping life support is when it can be proven that all brain cells are dead. Early fetuses have never been concious, and have never had a brain to be concious with. It's a totally different situation.

You did not address my point. By killing a developing human life inside a womb, you deny him a chance to live it's life. That's very similar to murder. The fact is as simple as that

I did adress your point. Even if there is zero brain activity, but the cells are living, the person has had a conciousness, and would likely experience the same conciousness if his brain was restarted. So killing him would be wrong. However, if the brain cells are dead, the person is already irreversibly gone, so no need to keep dragging it out.

I'm not denying anyone anything, because 'it' is not a 'him' yet. By not aborting a fetus, I'm denying a second kid that could have been born under better circumstances the chance to live. Both kids are equally 'sentient', even if only one of them has made it to the fetus stage yet.



I LOVE ICELAND!

So killing a person in vegetative state is wrong, but killing an unborn child is ok, because it's not a fully developed human yet?

And what the hell are you talking about in your second paragraph ? What 2nd kid? You keep avoiding my point. ''It not a him yet''  It's GOING TO BE HIM in few weeks, and by killing him, YOU DENY them a chance at becoming a fully developed human being and thus you deny him a chance at living his life. You keep arguing whether or not it's a human or just a lump of cells we're talking about when that's completely irrelevant to my point - denying a chance to live. When you take the seed out of ground, you deny it a chance to become a plant, despite it not being a full plant yet. I really don't know how to make this more simple to you. It seems to me you're arguing just for the sake of your liberal agenda

Frankly, my argument is that we shouldn't give the woman special powers. Do not legalize abortion for irresponsible women. Only allow it for women who have health risks or were raped (and even the latter case is contesable.) There is no natural right to kill a fetus. And no, this isn't morality I'm assuming, but natural law. 

At bolded: What??????

At italicized: What natural law?

Men having a say in whether or not they want/have to be a parent (ie. not having to pay child support) would lead to a lot more abortions, I think. Lots of people living off it.

Which would be good. A higher ratio of children would be born to committed, loving parents. Now, lots of children are just a source of income for the custodial parent, and a liability for a forced parent.

Seriously dude? It was obviously a metaphor. It should've been clear, because, if nothing else, I asserted that it can't be called killing, then immediately afterwards talked about a guy comitting murder.

Edit: your position seems very inconsistent. You claim in another post that you're fine with the woman having the final say in whether the fetus gets an eventual birth or not. Why don't you want to charger her with murder if a fetus really is a human?

Why not charge her with murder? Because I feel taking away abortion would lead to other problems. Like women looking for more drastic methods to kill their unborn child.

So if people want to have abortions, whatever. I don't want to stop them. But don't tell me a fetus isn't a person so you can sleep better at night.

So? If the fetus is a child, then it's murder, regardless of the method used to abort. So, if the fetus is a child, then women should be charged with murder for abortion too.

Just to be clear, I'm not saying a fetus is not a person to get better shut-eye at night; trust me, I have no trouble falling asleep in the worst of times. I truly believe that a fetus is not a person. How do you justify calling a fetus a person? A fetus is a potential person. So is a sperm cell, so is an egg. Is it then also murder for men to masturbate, or for women to go through a menstrual cycle without conceiving?

Sperm cells will not develop into a person on their own, neither will eggs. Once conception occurs development begins. Consequently, a unique diploid organism is produced, and humans only come in diploid form. That's the difference between an egg or sperm cell and a fetus.

I'll quote KungKras for you, whose response is perfectly in line with my own position:

Who cares if it has the same genome as a human, it doesn have a brain, so it does not experience anything. It's not developed into a person yet, so it shouldn't get treated as a person.

Again, a fetus is a potential human being. Like a seed is a potential tree.

My point was giving men an opportunity to not pay child support doesn't lead to men being more responsible.

What you're talking about now is unrelated. I'll atleast agree there should be a cap on how high child support can be. Certainly no one should get rich off it.

My point wasn't that. I said that if it wasn't the case, then those who make their living off of alimony and child support wouldn't have those incomes and thus would have been more likely to choose abortion. I didn't say that it made men more responsible.

How many people really make their living that way? I don't think its a huge problem.

Frankly, I wish more women would make a living that way. We'd see less people on food stamps. Instead too many get knocked up by dead beats.

Those living off of child support have no real income and would without question would be assumed to have food stamps as well.

But maybe if they had some big bucks coming in from child support we'd have less people relying on the government to get by.

They should teach this to girls in school. Only get knocked up by guys with lots of money. It'll save the country.

No. Just no. A woman (or more accurately, any person) should not be able to reach financial security just from getting knocked up. The money a parent receives from child support is supposed to go fully into the child; the parent should not benefit from it at all.

And even with your suggestion, people would still be relying on the government to get by. They'd be relying on the government to take away someone else's hard earned money and to transfer it to them. How is that fair?

Fair enough. I still think its a question of morality, however. I don't believe in "natural laws."

Instead of abortion, do you think instead we should force children to be raised by irresponsible parents? Who knows the consequences of that.

That's the risk with anyone though. Just because they didn't abort doesn't mean they can't be shitty parents. It's sort of luck really if you are born to good parents. Although those who want to abort but can't normally are bad parents

Let's say this statement were true (I have no idea whether or not it actually is). Would it not be better to let these people have an abortion instead of forcing them to bear a child, and condemning the said child to be raised by bad parents?

It's true that when you take a seed out of the ground, you deny it a chance to become a tree. Similarly, a woman denies her egg a chance to become a fetus by not concepting in a menstrual cycle. Likewise, a man denies his sperm a chance (however miniscule) to become a fetus by not shooting his load inside a woman.

Also, consider this: if you take the aforementioned seed out of the ground, are you cutting down a tree? No, right? In the same way, you're not killing a human being when you abort a fetus.

Obviously, I was joking.

But poor people shouldn't be allowed to make children. Stupid poor people messing up our economy.
