    Were talking about the right wing marching all the blacks back to Africa right?

    I'm saying we have no way of knowing when that begins, so there can't be any cutoff after conception.

    Sure we do. We can test for it. It’s usually around 18 months of age.

    No we don't.
    No, we can test for signs of it. We cannot conclude, from the lack of any such signs, that it's absent.

    So are you saying if in doubt, don’t? If we could be sure a “thing” wasn’t self aware would it be ok to terminate it?

    Fallacious sillyness. The problem with your argument is that it assumes a human exists = "assumed premise fallacy".

    Until you can prove that a single cell at conception = "a human" your analogy has no merit.

    I'd cut off access to "elective" abortion after week 20 or 22.

    I assumed nothing. Try actually looking into it.

    By whose standard? Yours?

    I consider LIFE beginning at conception. Not birth.

    We disagree on this point, but stop acting like your OPINIONS are grounded by facts and everybody else's aren't. It screams of narcissism and arrogancw.

    Simple life destroys the body. It's called death. Walking incrementally breaks down the cartilage in joints. Even eating results in fat and protein which can be a health risk.

    People's bodies die. That's what happens in life.

    It's funny that you want to blame a fetus for damaging the mother, who was the party responsible for creating that life, but then mysteriously do a 180 the it's ok to damage or kill the fetus.

    The amount of back-asswards logic you have to impose to hold the beliefs you do is absolutely astounding.

    Yeah, those selfish righties, they just want to kill people, or enslave them, but mostly just kill them. /sarcasm


    Hmmm, what's a rightie, BTW? Seems a bit vague and open to interchangeable quantifiers.

    I'm a liberal and all for the death penalty for the guilty......as are righties who selfishly ignore the fact that innocent people have been put to death for crimes they didn't commit.

    No, not really....it is the equivalent of the word 'leftie" or "leftist".

    And my comment above stands....

    Unlike the 4th grade playground, and the Jerry Springer show, being the loudest smart ass does not win the debate

    If “life” begins at conception then why are you not campaigning to save the 600,000 embryos frozen in various facilities throughout America

    Well then one could say a child is not a child.

    How about this: Instead of aborting the baby, the mother is aborted? She is not a mother but just a lump of "cells".

    Arguing "the law" in a philosophical debate is definitely 4th grade/Springer level.

    Well, if you want to do the time, do the crime.
