Potentiality of human life =/= actual human life.

How?

Just because my sperm has the potential to create human life doesn't mean it is as sacred as my life.

Same thing with a fetus, just because it has the potential to develop into a human being doesn't mean they are as sacred as an actual life.

[Korouse]

Again, what about 8 year olds, how about we kill them because they can't reproduce? How about we kill those who can't feel pain because of a disease? How about we kill the braindead people on life support? What about people in a coma?

You are just moving the goalposts because you have been proven wrong more than once.

The point is that the fetus, before it even has a heartbeat, developed organs, or developed brain function are not human. They are just cells.

After they have reached that level of maturity they are recognized for all intent and purposes as human biologically. Your argument about 8 year olds, people on a coma, and brain dead people along with the people who cannot feel pain are sincerely pointless.

You think you've proven me wrong, you're just taking my point and throwing it in the air.

Then what makes it human life? A change in location from the womb to the outside world?

[Death Metal]

"Cultural Marxism" is pure anti-thought newspeak.

And I am proudly publicly pro-choice, because it is absolutely immoral and sexist to deny women the right to remove unwanted parasites from their body, especially for theocratic reasons.

A fetus isn't a parasite.

Until the very end of the pregnancy cycle, it absolutely is a parasite.

Because you are comparing apples and oranges.

It's as if you were assuming that because I am pro-choice I should be also for the death penalty, which are two different things.

A parasitic relationship is between two species. A fetus is not a species.

Parasite:An organism that grows, feeds, and is sheltered on or in a different organism while contributing nothing to the survival of its host.

Organism: An individual form of life, such as a plant, animal, bacterium, protist, or fungus; a body made up of organs, organelles, or other parts that work together to carry on the various processes of life.
By saying it's a parasite, you ADMIT that it is alive.

Then what makes it human life?

Developed brain and organ functions, which doesn't truly happen until the last trimester.

I see it as viability of life.

If a fetus can, with or without support, live outside the womb then it is a human being. Human beings are self-sustaining organisms at their most basic form, they do not depend on the mother to exist, and by that I mean they do not receive nutrients by being attached by an umbilical cord to their mother or, at least, they don't need to.

Goalpost moving on your part. It's not a living human. It's just a living parasite.

[Sanskacia]

Well ...
I guess she got everyone talking about it.
So that's ... good?

But it isn't a species of any sort, which is one of the criteria for a parasite.

[Scholmeria]

To be fair, I dont know, it is just that it does not bothers me.

What is more important is that at least in Europe people are getting enough from this cultural Marxism.

"Cultural Marxism" is pure anti-thought newspeak.

And I am proudly publicly pro-choice, because it is absolutely immoral and sexist to deny women the right to remove unwanted parasites from their body, especially for theocratic reasons.

Oh, jeez if only your mummy preform that right on a such parasite long time ago, I would love to hear your reaction about that now.

But there are not theocratic reason for pro-life.

Well, i dont count openly gay neighbourhoods or where the "open-minded" people are gathering

"openly gay neighborhoods"? A neighborhood is incapable of sexual orientation. It cannot be gay.

Well, you know what I mean.

It can be, but it doesn't have to be.

"Goalpost" I don't understand. How is it just a parasite? It's from Human DNA.

[Scholmeria]

Cultural Marxism?

The hell?

It's cultural liberalism, as opposed to cultural conservatism. Marxism is an economic theory.

I would gree that the term Marxism is maybe not a good word for describing it, but it got popular such phrase.

[MERIZoC]

It can be, but it doesn't have to be.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parasite

Parasitism is a non-mutual symbiotic relationship between species, where one species, the parasite, benefits at the expense of the other, the host.

If you can find me an example of a parasite that isn't a species, I'll concede the point.

[Death Metal]

Oh, jeez if only your mummy preform that right on a such parasite long time ago, I would love to hear your reaction about that now.

I'd be fine with it, actually.

Here's the thing:

A human fetus does have parasitic characteristics, but it isn't a parasite.

By saying it is a parasite what they mean is that they receive nutrients and sustain themselves via the host. But they are not really parasites. pseudo-parasites if you will.

[Scholmeria]

I'd be fine with it, actually.

Lol, to be fair me to.

It makes no sense, literally none. Social liberalism would be a better term.

[Mavorpen]

If you can find me an example of a parasite that isn't a species, I'll concede the point.

You've never heard of Kleptoparasitism have you?

[Death Metal]

I'd be fine with it, actually.

Lol, to be fair me to.

Yeah, implying you'd want someone else to never be born, that's flaming sunshine.

Luckily for you I don't care enough.

How?
