All you did was relocate a baby who can't survive on its own. If it's in the womb it's not a baby. If it's the same size and age outside the womb it is. That's crazy rationalization. And it defies logic. If it's a baby in one location, it's a baby in another. So killing it in one location is as much murder as in the other, no matter what a law says.
Man, you really are blinded by hate of any one who doesn't share your worldview. The God I believe in wouldn't approve.
I don't have a guilty conscience dip shit. I have no reason to have one.
You're the one who is ignoring history and deciding on your own. You demonstrate that at every turn. The law was changed to remove gun control by the Nazis and yet you refuse to accept that fact. Instead, you have decided on "eyewitnesses" because they support your narrative
The medical term is "fetus". But that's beside the point. What you are conveniently ignoring is that elective abortions at 25 weeks - or even 20 weeks, say - are unheard of. Almost all abortions are in the first 12 weeks, and the percentage would be even higher if not for roadblocks like mandatory waiting periods, forcing patients to travel long distances, etc. By the time you're anywhere near viability, no one is going to want to abort unless they learn the fetus is unviable or has some catastrophic defect.
And I reiterate - I have no issue whatsoever with abortion. If a friend needed one and I could help, I would help without question.
That's because you worship a god made in your imagination. The God of Truth loves his creation, all of it, and is protective over the innocent. And love by its very nature means hate for that which violates the character of relationship and love. Love protects and defends from those who would harm the loved one. That's why Jesus died to pay all the cost... for you too. But it also means a choice. And a choice, with a truly Holy Judge, also means consequences.
No. I spend time valuing the sanctity of life. And there are plenty of women who HAVE spent plenty of time pregnant who will say just what I am saying. Do they hate women too? Do they hate themselves? Because most liberal women I have met are perpetually pissed off and feeling like victims. Most conservative women I know are stunningly happy, loving, and the most compassionate people I know.
The issue is that YOU haven’t done the research that you claim to have done. YOU can’t name an eyewitness who can show that if Jewish people had guns they could have fought off the Nazis. YOU said you could, but all you’ve done is run away from providing the information YOU said YOU had.
I don't suppose it's ever occurred to you that your own perspective plays a role in that? I mean, we've all seen how you interact with people who disagree with you; of course that's going to make them angry. Likewise, most conservative women I know are not at all as you described, and I'm well aware that's probably because they find my politics disgusting just like you do.
Can you quote the names and pull the paper articles, presenting them online, of all the most learned or informed people you have read, most of them in small pubs and wholely disconnected from the Internet age? Good thing too. Today they would have been cancelled.
You have no earthly idea how hilarious that is for the rest of us to read. I mean, I can't even begin...
Actually, that is an observation of former libs who happen to be women. They were not happy because liberals tell them to feel like victims. Conservatives say you are who and what you make of life, that you are no one's victim. The former is slavery, the latter freedom.
I have. I have read the links you provided and NONE of them provided what you said they did. YOU didn’t read them. YOU’VE demonstrated that without a doubt YOU have no clue what YOU’RE talking about. YOU just believe what people say without doing any research to see for yourself.
1. Confirmation bias is a thing, and a very common thing among extremists like yourself at that. (And yes, I've seen it on the left too. But that's beside the point.)
It is.It's remarkable, right?
Best self-inflicted wounds on the PB this year.
Since he has alluded to a past in which he didn't adhere to the standards he's always calling for ("I wish I'd waited for marriage"), it could be he's a relatively new convert. They tend to be the loudest and most strident. That would also explain how he ended up on an erotica website despite his prudishness.
My side? The Libertarians? The von Misisians? The Hayekian few? Nobody, but nobody listens to us!
Not a new convert. I'm 45, was raised in a home that took it farther than I believe they should have, and I questioned and challenged everything that I hold dogmatically. The allusion here is that legit spirituality holds uncertainty as a virtue. That is foolishness. Certainty and a holding to absolutes is kinda why God gave the Bible to begin with. It would be a pretty hateful God to say, "I have a standard, but I'll leave you to figure it out, but if you don't, you will deal with the consequences. Good luck." And a Holy God with no absolute standard is like saying a just judge who lets criminals go without consequence. The two thoughts are incongruent. By your standard, the judge who has an absolute legal standard he holds others and hopefully himself to is arrogant. Sorry, that's not the standard the Creator works with. He wasn't made in our image, we were made in His.
Actual facts are a thing too, and they are pretty stubborn buggers. They don't move because of your feelings. Or your leftist agendas. Or your desire to relegate people to victim classes (a mark of classic Marxism, by the way, as defined by Marx).
No, I am talking about a growing group of people who wrestled through things and came out the other end. Because, "It's __________ fault," and, "the ____________ is oppressing me," THOSE are the easy answers. Taking personal responsibility for one's own life is what is hard. It is also one of the biggest reasons I have heard from former liberals as to why they left your side. They were tired of the lazy, angry, easy answers. They wanted the freedom of individual thought instead of the slavery of victimhood and groupthink.
The women I am thinking of, I posted some of their own videos on here of them telling their stories. And men. Maybe listen to what their story is before saying they weren't really libs. I have constantly and consistently shown evidence for my positions, you just don't like the sources or what they say. So you say, "Not good enough. Give something else." It's an old and very transparent tactic. It's why you are the foils I use to make the point to people who read these from time to time, people I have heard from, who won't post on here because they don't want to deal with your ignorance, but who thank me for being willing to take the hits.
