Not exactly.
I did not say it was wrong. I was just pointing out your contradictions.
I am evolved to eat things as are all living things in one way or the other.
Suck it up!
Illogical on it's face for several reasons.Mounce574 wrote: ↑November 9th, 2022, 6:35 am I think terminating life is not something to be taken lightly.
If a pregnant woman is killed, the law charges the murderer with 2 counts of murder- 1 for the mother and 1 for the unborn child.
Therefore, I would surmise that terminating a pregnancy is equal to one count of murder. If the mother chooses to kill the unborn child how is different than if somebody else ended its life with hers?
I am pro-life for several reasons.
This point is moot: the fact that for every person who is born, another person dies.Sy Borg wrote: ↑November 13th, 2022, 7:31 pm It depends on whether one thinks a foetus - a living entity without sentience, relationships or cares - matters as much as an adult woman.
It also should depend on how many people this planet can carry before everything goes kaput. Ideally, who do we put resources towards when there's not enough to go around?* I would see at the bottom of the priority list incurably violent criminals, those who are terminally ill and seek respite and those who have not yet experienced life in the world.
* Yes, there would be more to go around if corporations shared their wealth, but that's not happening any time soon.
So what? Since when have humans cared about microscopic life, which is what an early embryo is - a microbe. Even a late term foetus is vastly less sentient than the animals we routinely kill for food - it's not even close.

Why is bacteria considered life on Mars but a heartbeat on Earth isn't?
See, this is where you pass judgment upon me believing that I eat animals. Do you eat people? Do you eat human aborted baby parts?Sy Borg wrote: ↑November 23rd, 2022, 1:28 amBacteria are alive, that is why.Mounce574 wrote: ↑November 22nd, 2022, 10:47 pm

The fairyfly, a tiny parasitic wasp is the smallest insect, about 0.5 to 1mm long. Fairyflies have beating hearts. Should we start a campaign to save them? Does having a heart mean that that life matters? How much do the lives of sophisticated pigs, cows and sheep that you eat matter? In truth, you don't care about whether an entity has a heart.

Excellent reasons to choose not to personally have an abortion. Bravo.Mounce574 wrote: ↑November 25th, 2022, 2:05 am So weeks 5 to 6 there is brain activity in the baby. There are videos of a baby moving away from the instruments used to cause an abortion due to pain. When the baby kicks at 4 months- is that some strange creature in the womb's foot or a baby?
Late term abortions- those are viable babys at 24 weeks. You are literally killing a baby then.
I don't think sperm are smart enough to be scared.
Judge God by his deeds and not the words written.
