Similarities between Nazis and Republicans

I didn't think we would have to continue at the 3rd grade level of biology. You do know that, you too, are just "a collection of cells".

Aww. Were you not able, from context, to understand that I was referring to a fertilized zygote? Do you not know what one is, or how many cells it's composed of? (One.) Do you know how many make up your body? Your intellectual dishonesty doesn't constitute an argument.

Knowing that you have difficulty in just the basics of biology I don't expect you to even begin to grasp the implications of our ignorance on the subject of consciousness.

You can do all the backflips and contortions you want, except you still haven't demonstrated the contention that underlies your argument -- that abortions are "murdering babies." Have fun, from a scientific perspective, making that argument. Spoiler Alert: You may want to look at what the body of science -- since you're sitting here claiming to know anything about biology -- says about what stage of life "personhood" comes into being. It certainly isn't conception, which is a religious standpoint with no scientific basis.

You are an imbecile.

Ashalina sure is triggered about this. You know everyone here wasn't aborted just saying.

The fact that you picked a famous atheist.. best known for playing a socialist progressive.. is pretty funny. Sorry you can't deal with the abject hypocrisy of the religious right, though. Luckily for the rest of us, that hypocrisy is driving more and more people away from it than ever.

If I laid out the most solid factual argument for you, you’d actually pause and reflect on it? Or would you continue on with your beliefs and think “It doesn’t matter, I am still going to believe what I want.” At this point since you know everything about every topic and people there’s a slim chance of changing your mind. I swear in politics these days so many struggle with Dunning Kruger. You simply are a caricature of a human being. Using Picard had nothing to do with the topic and I had no idea he was an atheist so I learned something.

I was wondering why this thread had so many replies already. I see it’s because Ashliana is every other post as per usual.

There's really only one difference, you believe you can kill an innocent human being at a certain cell count, I don't believe we should be killing innocent humans at all (I don't even support the death penalty.). It's has very little to do with my trust in religion and more to do with my trust in knowing we are really stupid monkeys that don't know shit from shinola.

Why are fewer abortions a good thing? (I'm assuming you think that fewer abortions are good thing since you didn't answer the question)

Abortions have been happening far longer than Christianity has been around. And from a realistic stand point you aren't going to be able to completely get rid of them. So the next best thing would be to do what one can to reduce their number.

You can do mental gymnastics about why you just can't be bothered to lay out an argument... in a discussion thread .. you're going out of your way to post in... all you want. All you're doing is demonstrating, yet again, your unwillingness (or, likelier: inability) to lay out an actual argument. If you were actually concerned about people's openmindedness to having their minds changed, you wouldn't be directing it to me.

Much like you posting your non-response, my pointing out the humor in your non-response wasn't particularly meaningful. I'm glad I was able to educate you, though.

Ah, Dreaven. Stopping by for the occasional swipe with nothing substantive to add, as usual.

There's really only one difference, you believe you can kill an innocent human being at a certain cell count, I don't believe we should be killing innocent humans at all (I don't even support the death penalty.).

Your inability to deal with the fact that a fertilized zygote doesn't have personhood under either the law or the body of science (good job giving up on that aspect immediately after being challenged, though -- Kudos!) only reflects on you. Good for you opposing the death penalty -- too bad you'll never go out of your way to discuss that issue as it pertains to the Republican position on it, though. Virginia Democrats just abolished it, by the way, and you supported Trump throughout his restarting of federal capital punishment for the first time in years, including the first woman to be federally executed in half a century.

It's has very little to do with my trust in religion and more to do with my trust in knowing we are really supid monkeys that don't know shit from shinola.

Your magical belief that a single-celled zygote is a "person" certainly isn't based in science, so if it isn't religion, it's just something you invented arbitrarily to reduce your cognitive dissonance, though neither would reflect well on you.

"In multicellular organisms, the zygote is the earliest developmental stage."

In this case, that organism is a human.

"Abortions have been happening far longer than Christianity has been around. And from a realistic stand point you aren't going to be able to completely get rid of them. So the next best thing would be to do what one can to reduce their number."

Murder has been around before Christianity as well, will not putting murders in prison reduce murder rates?

If it's not murder, why do you feel the need to reduce the numbers?

Nope. Each of your trillions of cells may be "human," but that doesn't mean they're a person, a required element for your magical assertion that "abortion is murder." You weren't able to lay out a coherent argument this time. Better luck next time. And the next time. And the next time.

And draconian measures to punish murder -- from the death penalty to mass incarceration -- don't work, either, but it looks like you know as little about criminology as you do about biology. No surprise, there. If the justice system were a complete solution to murder, they wouldn't still be happening. And specifically, there's a fair amount of evidence that the murder rate has gone down in recent decades specifically because of Roe v. Wade.

You asked this question, already, and it was answered. Are you having a stroke? Or are you just bullshitting in circles for its own sake? (Ding, ding, ding, ding!)

Typically, the earliest abortions are performed at 4-6 weeks of pregnancy, however, this does vary by state.

Though abortion can be performed earlier, 4-6 weeks is generally when women begin experiencing symptoms of pregnancy, with a missed period often being the first sign.

Soo, as I have been saying. Democrats are the only major party that supports the murder of 130,000 black Americans every year.
