    Like dude if we could strip all embryos and put them in man made wombs from unwanted pregnancies then I'd be all for it.

    But that's not a reality and that's how pregnancy works it's just a lot more intimate than a toddler who financially depends on his mother.
    It's not murder since it isn't a life form yet. It doesn't even have brain activity until the 6th week of it's development, and even then it's incredibly rudementary. The fetus' brain doesn't start taking over functions of the body until roughly the start of the second trimester.

    Well depends on context.

    The smoker is fully aware he'll get cancer so no...

    The jaywalker is on their phone and not paying attention, then no obviously natural selection is a beautiful thing.

    A mother who run after her toddler who ran across the street, or a guy who's in a hurry because his wife is in labor getting hit by a car, of course.

    It has a complete unique DNA code from the process of conception. It is a complete life form yet. The thing is that is has to develop. And unfortunately we're not plants who can gestitate In dirt.

    So yeah, you have issues living in a society. No need to display your issue here.

    Maybe you should spend less time on your phone and get an education first, befor you try to comment on complex biological concepts, that'd save you a lot of stress and public riddicule.

    Honestly, there are plenty of articles online you can read that's educate you greatly on how human reproduction works, I'd reccomend you give one of those a spin befor you try to argue your bullshit.

    What issues. People who smoke do so knowing they can get cancer. You gonna feel bad to a guy who sets his hand on fire for the lulz?

    Abortions don't result in the death of a baby. By definition.

    Um no, an extreme is an extreme, not a rule. Don't put words in my mouth.
    I'm not. Those were your words. If you support exceptions for rape, your opposition to abortion is 100% predicated on a hostility to women in general, and their sexual independence in specific.

    The alternative is that you think children of rape aren't actually people and can be freely killed by anyone, ethically speaking. It's a lot easier to assume you're just a liar than that you're so wildly disturbed you think the latter is true.

    "I want to kill someone because" is an acceptable reason to commit murder? Of course not.
    Abortion is, again definitively, not murder. Your statement can be filed right alongside militant vegans who claim eating meat is "murder". Same bullshit emotional argument, to ignore reality.

    I don't care about your personal beliefs. If you think abortion is "murder", you're a liar. It's that simple.

    But the reverse applies in this scenario because "my body". That's just an excuse radical feminists spew because of lack healthy values and not wanting to adhere to the consequences of your actions.
    What "consequences"? If you get the abortion, those "consequences" aren't consequences any more. Your argument is literally the same as Saudis arguing that women can't drive, because you deny them the right to learn to drive, and thus women don't know how to drive and can't learn so they'd be unsafe. When the problem originates with your oppression, and nothing else. You're the one trying to force consequences upon women.

    Nope. A complete set of unique DNA doesn't make you a complete life form. Again, a fertilized chicken egg has the same. But it's still, for the moment, just an egg.

    Lol...

    I know exactly how human reproduction works my dude I promise.

    The rift between us is that you don't consider an embryo a human being because all the silly reasons you've listed.

    In this context, there's a cure for lung cancer, and you're the guy arguing that it shouldn't be given to anyone who smoked, because they should "live with the consequences".

    That's how utterly horrendous your position is.

    You clearly don't have respect for life so just stop.

    How about chimeric people? They've got two (or more) sets of unique DNA. Are they two people? Can they vote twice in elections because of those two sets of DNA? Can one claim the other as a "dependent", for tax writeoff purposes?

    Or is this, like you said, just more anti-scientific bullshit being spewed by religious extremists who seek to harm women?

    First of all, I'm not your dude, not your buddy, not your bro, or whatever. Fuck off with that.

    Second of all, apparently not, because you still insist that an embryo is a human being. It isn't. It's a lump of cells.

    No it's a chicken in the earliest possible stage of life, which happens to still be in the same egg shell.

    Once again, the moment it turns into a carrot then you have an argument

    Given that I respect women, and you're only posting here in pursuit of subjugating them and restricting their basic human rights, no.

    You continue to lie to push your extremist religious agenda and the open bigotry it is based upon, and I'll post the truth that exposes that to everyone else. Every time.

    A carrot has a completely unique set of DNA. Plants even combine their DNA to propagate.

    That will turn into a fully functional HUMAN BEING and not a play station 5, my dude.

    They like to confuse the terms "human" as biologically descriptive of the genetic composition of the cells with "human being" which is a legal term more or less interchangeable with "person".

    If I wank off into a handkerchief, the sperm cells in that handkerchief are "human". They're not "human beings". Despite being living cells. This isn't actually confusing, but if they use the terms incorrectly, they can confuse people into misunderstanding reality, sometimes.
