And in that she seems to be doing a good job, seeing how you made a thread about it.  I guess you and most of the 228 viewers of this blog at some point spent at least a few seconds considering where they stand in the abortion question. Which was exactly what she wanted.  ding ding ding Now as stupid as her stance is on the matter (free choice!), if she really wanted to go do something that's gonna catch everyone's eye and make a scene, she and her buddies should have bought a whole bunch of baby dolls, threw them in a big garbage can and left it in the most highly trafficked intersection in the school with the website stickers all over the can. Instant publicity. Damn amateurs. I should just become a protest organizer. I know how to make a scene. Her stance on the matter is not 'stupid', don't be an idiot. It is a reasonable conclusion from a different set of initial assumptions and priorities. Owning slaves is a good idea if the priority is making money. Reasonable conclusions are not so great when the premises are disgusting. Keep in mind though that you hold your beliefs about slavery because "certain initial assumptions and priorities" have also changed, over time, in the culture in which you live. In a different era, your conclusion about slavery would also not be reasonable in the same way, because people's assumptions about what equality means did not extend to minorities. I'm aware. I have absolutely no contempt for Aristotle even though he wasn't bothered by slavery at the time. It was perfectly normal back then. I guess I wouldn't call the girl stupid for being an "activist" against abortion... I would definitely say, however, that she's of questionable morality. I question the morality of basically everyone who are arguing that a mass of biological stuff which we can produce absurdly easily should be looked at in high regard simply because of a borderline religious admiration for said biomass.Obviously, none of us (provided we're sane) are like "yay abortion is awesome". It's an unfortunate reality, but thanks science for this procedure which helps women - people with actual emotions, who perhaps have been trying to cope with having been raped 9 months before... What? It's not a "mass of biological stuff". Abortion happens after conception. It's the start of a new organism's life cycle. And that isn't a religious concept, that's basic science. How you feel about killing the organism at that point is your business, but I don't think you should question her morality on skewed assumptions about religion. Bacterias also do have a life cycle. Yes. Yes they do. I'm not sure where you're going with that. Because I don't think anyone questions the morality of killing bacteria. Bacteria don't grow into people, so having a different moral stance on them isn't necessarily wrong. you're actually wrong we grew out from bacterias long long ago concepts attached the word "life" are as diverse as the world is it's actually fun to notice that most common people that are pro life are usually religious bigots and also for the death penalty
Okay. Forever ago, we were bacteria. But that is so irrelevent to anything I'm going to ignore it. Now that humans are a distinct, thinking species, we can govern ourselves with a set of guidelines. We will call those "morals". For practicality purposes, we'll just talk about morals that affect us, since we are the most sentient species we know of.
Life begins at conception is a scientific statement. It's just a fact of the human life cycle. I cannot explain it any more simply than that. Every choice made to that organism falls under morality. Morality can be based on religion, but it doesn't have to be. Don't bring religion into an argument that doesn't need it.
This has nothing to do with religion. Stop implying that I'm a bigot. That's just rude.
Also, I am opposed to the death penality. But that's so far off topic.

I like you Sm3agol.
If you don't take the rape pill, get a free rape baby that'll mess up your body while you're psychologically messed up giving painful birth to a rape-baby!
Seems cruel.
I like that abortion is fine if it's done with a pill even though the potential baby is just as much of a potential baby when it's an early fetus.

what a mish mash of narrowed conceptions

"its just a fact"

Abortion should only happen in cases of: rape, risk of the mother dying or impracticality of having a baby in the mother's life situation. 'Just not wanting a baby' is not a valid excuse., You should've thought of that before having sex, or at least used a morning after pill.

Or let's hear it from the babies perspective, it sounds much nicer that way.
"My mother was raped by a random idiot, so that means I have to die."
And "the pill" is infinitely more justifiable because the baby at that point is completely unable to survive on it's own, regardless of anything we could do. Hence I could understand putting it to the mother's choice at that point in it's life.

Like other people have said, you don't deserve those rights because people also have responsibilities. Use a condom.

How come when it's us, it's an abortion, but when it's a chicken- it's an omelette!

How's a pill abortion better than a surgical abortion?

bacterias are usually the same

Chickens are just as tasty. Plus, the eggs are still unfertilized 99% of the time. Good try though.

Let's hear it from this other baby. My dad fapped in a sock, so I have to die. You genocidal maniac Sm3agol.
I can guarantee you that 3 months fetuses are just as likely to survive as your sticky socks.

Bacteria will never develop that perspective. A fetus is merely 9 months away from that perspective.

If your Dad is fapping into socks with unfertilized eggs in it, then he might have more serious issues we might want to talk about.
And you clearly read my post VERY well.
