Then why w...OC: "I DO hate terrorism..."<br /><br />Then why would you encourage terrorism yourself? I just don't get it. Usually people do not knowingly commit the very things that they are against committing. For example, I am against acts of violence; thus, I do not commit acts of violence.<br /><br />--Removing my finger from another persons eye will not result in my death (as per abortion).<br /><br />--Your argument has boiled down to the difference between internal and external. Quite sad.<br /><br />--Cancer is natural but it is not normal. I fail to see your point.<br /><br />Your lack of logic still amuses me.<br /><br />Glad that you could be honest. Sorry that I wasn't able to hold up my own statement to not talk to you. I was being too haste.<br /><br />One last point. "...no one forces us to donate internal stuff to them." No one can force us to (except a rapist) because it was by choice (ie sexual intercourse) of the parents (one of them being female) to allow the donation of bodily nutrients to the body of another. :PTonal Blisshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03198001091701514327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8395646.post-74545303198126011592010-01-18T01:21:48.185-05:002010-01-18T01:21:48.185-05:00Christina, I disagree with that particular pro-cho...Christina, I disagree with that particular pro-choice argument--the "knowing you have a kid out there is worse than knowing you have a dead kid" argument. Just as I disagree with the "It's not a person" argument. If the point of your post is to attack the "worse" argument, then I guess I'm with you on this one. For me the right to abort ends when the placenta stops transferring goodies from mom to fetus and baddies in the opposite direction. Once you can live without further violating your mama's body, you're home free in my book.OperationCounterstrikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11877707857942926743noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8395646.post-67521982954828815992010-01-18T01:19:01.293-05:002010-01-18T01:19:01.293-05:00Segamon:

RE: "We are required to provide necessary sustenance at all times with born children (ie if a legal parent or guardian knowingly with-holds food, water, and basic protection this person would be given quite a harsh punishment by society and law)."<br /><br />No, we are not required to provide children with the contents of our bodies. Only with EXTERNAL property. Even when their lives are at stake no one forces us to donate internal stuff to them.<br /><br />RE: "Natural and normal". Natural and normal do not mean "right" nor "good" nor "good for you". Cancer is natural. The surgery which cures cancer is unnatural.<br /><br />RE: "I know I shouldn't be talking to you,..."<br /><br />Yeah, I have an irresistable personality!<br /><br />RE:"The next step for you, OC, is to denounce and retract your very violent and hateful statements. I'm waiting."<br /><br />Sorry, can't do it. It would be dishonest. I DO hate terrorism, and I DO feel it should be answered violently. War is a bad thing, but the current situation in which one side terrorizes but never suffers terror, that's worse than war. You wouldn't want me to lie, would you?OperationCounterstrikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11877707857942926743noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8395646.post-91005721428069890962010-01-17T23:12:29.436-05:002010-01-17T23:12:29.436-05:001.

This is the only pro-choice argument that has ever withstood some amount of scrutiny. However, this argument is still weak. A temporary arrangement of using some of another person's nutrients and placing some by-products into another person is a small trade off to allow another human being to live. We should expect human beings to provide at least temporary sustenance to keep another person alive within natural constraints (pregnancy is a natural and normal occurrence and process in stark contrast with "organ sharing/donation" examples). We are required to provide necessary sustenance at all times with born children (ie if a legal parent or guardian knowingly with-holds food, water, and basic protection this person would be given quite a harsh punishment by society and law).<br /><br />Even someone who does not want be a parent should give the natural and normal sustenance to their child until a situation arises to responsibly give that duty to another person. With born people this is a natural expectation that is repeatedly enforced vigorously (ie it's considered murder to throw away a newborn baby into a dumpster). If a baby is born to a woman who cannot find adoptive parents, should that woman end the baby's life?<br /><br />4. Abortion subjects women to "major medical/surgical trauma." Even if you consider abortion to be "minor," why would you want to use a subjective grading scale of "major" and "minor" to determine who lives or dies?<br /><br />I know I shouldn't be talking to you, but I don't like seeing such failed logic displayed for others to falsely believe. I'm sorry this makes me a liar (since I said that I would never talk to you until you renounced your violent statements). I suppose I should not have been so harsh.<br /><br />BTW, answer my request, OC: "The next step for you, OC, is to denounce and retract your very violent and hateful statements. I'm waiting." You refuse to answer. Are you going to remain a coward?Tonal Blisshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03198001091701514327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8395646.post-17992722351191955672010-01-17T22:32:32.337-05:002010-01-17T22:32:32.337-05:00But then she'll have the trauma of knowing the...But then she'll have the trauma of knowing the baby is out there somewhere. The biggest prochoice argument against adoption is that it's cruel to leave the mother bereft and not knowing where her baby is. Isn't it just as cruel to expect her to make an adoption plan just because it took her to long to learn of the new human's existence?Christina Duniganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04785550737493692252noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8395646.post-1744114093583329582010-01-17T21:56:47.977-05:002010-01-17T21:56:47.977-05:00She's NOT forced to parent it.
