Then that is a completely different scenario than our resident rape apologist described.

I think that you are imagining things.

Abortion///cont.

Nothing in that connects to a refutation of my argument. Those are the dots and that's the nature of my answer. Quite to the contrary: On closer examination your position demands it. A newly combined egg and sperm are being lobbied as falling under the umbrella of "right-to-life". By...

@Town Heretic argues against abortion rights based there being a preponderance of evidence that we cannot objectively know when on the timeline, between conception on one side and birth on the other, that the baby's right to life comes into being. Since we objectively cannot be sure, combined with it being such a grave evil if we are wrong about it, we are therefore only morally permitted to forbid and outlaw unjustified abortion.

I recommend reading the first page of the linked thread if you haven't, with Quip's and Town's back-and-forth.

Town's reasoning is simply solid. He doesn't even argue from the position that life begins at conception, he merely ties together the fact that our constitution is based upon human rights and that rights attach at some point between conception and birth inclusive, and that since it's currently unknowable when that point is, that it's simply responsible to forbid elective abortion.

That is completely and utterly wrong. We know, for a fact, that life begins at conception. That is irrefutable Biblical and scientific knowledge.

"rights attach" is babbling nonsense.

TOL user Servent101 [sic], who joined 20 years ago, at age 100 (lol), is "Looking for a church."

Looking for a church

I am looking for a church, a place to fellowship. I thought I would say what my leanings are and see if you there at TOL would know of a church I would be at home in... a place of similar values and beliefs. I try to walk the walk of a fundamentalist but appreaciate the non-condeming attitude...

If you are looking for a church, consider Mass. This is what "going to church" means according to the oldest, ancientest Christian traditions. Mass is where we weekly abide by the Lord's command to His Apostles: "Do this in memory of Me."

ECT - I AM RIGHT

Just wanted your attention. This will be addressed to only particular people, and they will know who they are. The rest of you will know the type of people it's addressed to. Why do you come to a discussion board, and then behave as if everyone was supposed to agree with you, pat your back...

Hope your ban is up soon.

Came across this thread the other day. There are few threads left from my first couple years here when I was still a Republican. It's from the year before I left the GOP.

I miss so many posters who aren't here anymore.

toldailytopic: If you voted for Obama, do you regret it?

How do you reconcile voting for McCain given both his stand on abortion and your apparent view that the president impacts the issue? I followed somewhat the conversation between several posters here about whether someone voted for a baby killer or not. I have a problem with that particular...

Amazing to review that thread. Not a single mention of The Donald
