    Single-celled organisms are, in fact, organisms. You continue to not have any sweet fucking clue what science actually says.

    Read up, try harder

    If we were single cell organisms then I wouldn't be saying that now would I?

    Fair point on cells vs. organism.

    Now do cancer, again: https://news.berkeley.edu/2011/07/26...olved-species/

    Cancer patients may view their tumors as parasites taking over their bodies, but this is more than a metaphor for Peter Duesberg, a molecular and cell biology professor at the University of California, Berkeley.

    Cancerous tumors are parasitic organisms, he said. Each one is a new species that, like most parasites, depends on its host for food, but otherwise operates independently and often to the detriment of its host.

    In a paper published in the July 1 issue of the journal Cell Cycle, Duesberg and UC Berkeley colleagues describe their theory that carcinogenesis – the generation of cancer – is just another form of speciation, the evolution of new species.

    “Cancer is comparable to a bacterial level of complexity, but still autonomous, that is, it doesn’t depend on other cells for survival; it doesn’t follow orders like other cells in the body, and it can grow where, when and how it likes,” said Duesberg. “That’s what species are all about.”
    Cancer can be an organism, so by your definition cancerous tumor is a separate living entity that is reliant on its host/"parent" to remain alive. Removing it would kill the cancerous tumor, thus resulting in murder.

    Pretty much, he just's to distract from the issues and make sure useful information is surrounded by shit on here. But once again, the trolls will continue to kick the asses of the regular posters on here. Just like he did for the past 7 pages.
    Since we can't call out Trolls and Bad Faith posters and the Ignore function doesn't actually ignore it. Add
    "mmo-champion.com##li.postbitignored"
    to your ublock or adblock filter to actually ignore ignored posters. Now just need a way to ignore responses to them as well.

    Technically you're wrong
    People just don't evolve in their opinion while society keeps changing around you.
    Someone who is a monarchist at 25 will probably still be that at 75 even if by then 99% of 25 year old are republicans.
    50 years later the 75 year old republicans might be Conservative as there is a block of 25 year old that want universal suffrage for adults instead of just make suffrage.

    Most likely even I am shocked that deep red states are voting against pro-life measures, justice Roberts must be losing his mind this is exactly what he warned against. Republicans basically already had abortion banned without having to overturn it and facing public backlash.

    False.

    You're confusing definitions.

    The fetus is "human", in the sense that it is genetically human. So are my toes, even if you cut one off. So are cancerous growths. So are the gametes in ejaculate.

    The fetus is not "a human being", in the sense of an infant born alive or whatever other legal definition for such a term as you want. This is a definition that defines personhood, and has nothing to do with genetics or science.

    A fetus is human. It is not a human being. This is simple, verifiable, objective fact. If you've got a problem with that, you've got a problem with objective reality. None of this is opinion.

    And conflating the two is intentional dishonesty.

    Dude seriously... This is one of the worst mix of goal post moving and ignorance i have encountered in a while here. I actually feel somewhat bad posting yet again, because honestly... you're humiliating yourself really hard right now... i don't mind a good discussion, but god, if you want to talk about a topic like biology, at least try to read up on the basics...

    Actually no. The main argument for pro choice is that a woman is entitled to control of her own body. We do not require someone to compromise their body autonomy EVEN after death. Unless they are pregnant women. Fetal personhood is irrelevant to that argument because my bodily autonomy cannot and will not be sacrificed for the right of others. To suggest otherwise means you are in favor of mandatory organ donation.

    It really is the only argument needed and the only argument that matters because there is no reasonable counter to it.

    Do you think I'm vegan? If not then you'd know how I feel about that. Unless a tumor somehow grown into a livingg person

    There's a world of difference between getting more conservative and changing your entire value system. As you get older some things the newer generation finds fine will be weird or bad to you but that doesn't mean you are going to adopt brand new beliefs. If that were true there would be zero old liberals and left wing people wouldn't exist past 65.

    Um... Who here doesn't already know this? Would be much easier to explain that to the newbies that show up rather then let Varx kick your collective asses for pages in games you pretend you aren't playing while he objectively is.

    It's what we're doing. And we have already established you are against that. Dementia much?
