There is an out of control trolley speeding towards Jeremy Bentham, who is tied to the track. You can pull the lever to cause the trolley to switch tracks, but on the other track is Immanuel Kant. Bentham is clutching the only copy in the universe of The Critique of Pure Reason. Kant is clutching the only copy in the universe of The Principles of Moral Legislation. Both men are shouting at you that they have recently started to reconsider their ethical stances.

The burden is on the state to deny liberty. If they can prove he is under the effects of illness, they may intervene. If they cannot prove this, liberty must not be infringed.


He isn't. But he'll be happier as a quadriplegic Do yo or do you not sever his spine.

That is not the basis of my argument.
The basis is ownership of body, not ownership of absolutely everything.
Making straw man arguments and doing it badly by the way.

What the person wants to to is utterly irrelevant.
What they want to do WITH THEIR PROPERTY, is completely relevant.

etc.

Fuck the irish independence movement, it's fascism in liberties clothing.

1. Have seats in parliament.
2. Offered home rule
3. Accept, be very happy with this
4. Notice the northern majority protestants get their own because their culture is different
5. Throw a shit fit
6. Attempt to annex northern ireland despite their protests
7. Fail
8. Alter history to say you overthrew the british for independence purposes only, not because they refused to allow you to oppress protestants
9. Bitch about the British still owning northern ireland despite the fact the inhabitants want to be british, claim imperialism when it's YOU being an imperialist
10. Fail

I was talking about british concentration camps in where 10 million were killed just because they were black and non-anglos. You see, after that they started to do almost the same to the catholics by hungering them to death. We have accounts from french and german diplomats where they were horrifayed wiith what they have seen in SA and Ireland; the modus operandi was this: who is not protestant or white is a untermensch. So, what you all said try to put from nazi instead of british and jew instead of irish and you would see that it is inst possible.


Now, I do not agree with thecatholic fundamentalist about the abortion but I understand why are they so: because of the protestant rule who made them so.

The implication of you using that word was that the British were oppressing the irish in a fascistic manner. Now that you have clarified, I will remind you that the IRISH were ALSO part of the empire.
It was the united kingdom of GREAT BRITAIN AND IRELAND.
Every crime Britain commited is EQUALLY attributable to the irish, as such saying
"The irish rebelled against the fascist british" just makes no sense.

Women say they have the right . to non medically necissary abortions. Because, it's convenient for them. In the same way, the paraplegic doesn't need the operation. But he insistson it because it would make him happier. I'm arguing that it's a self centeredness ethic, that sees you have no responsibilities but rights. Abortion has blossomed to a thing done sometimes, to women getting multiple abortions. Even though in most cases they agreed to have sex, even vast amounts of birth control was available. Even those their is a day after pill. Face the facts: woman get pregnant because they are either too ignorant, too irresponsible, or too intoxicated to take their biological responsibility serious.

No, they argue they have that right because of bodily autonomy.
Would you like to try again.
I have said the paraplegic may have the operation.
It's like the issue of the policeman.

"I was walking along the bank of a stream when I saw a mother otter with her cubs. A very endearing sight, and as I watched, the mother otter dived into the water and came up with a plump salmon, which she subdued and dragged on to a half-submerged log. As she ate it, while of course it was still alive, the body split and I remember to this day the sweet pinkness of its roes as they spilled out, much to the delight of the baby otters who scrambled over themselves to feed on the delicacy. One of nature’s wonders: mother and children dining upon mother and children. And that’s when I first learned about evil. It is built in to the very nature of the universe. If there is any kind of supreme being, I told myself, it is up to all of us to become his moral superior."

My point:

1. You do have LIMITED autonomy.

2, You have the responsibility to plan ahead.

3' This controversy is caused by NON IRISH.

4. If you do not take your responsibility to use the whole host of birth control, you take the chance of being pregnant.

5 Autonom over your body does not include paying for your abortion. YOU screwed up, YOU will pay

6 Soon you will be extinct, because you abort your children. You will go the way of the dinosaurs.
