yeah

2019-05-07 14:58:57 UTC  

the inconsistency or not

2019-05-07 14:59:00 UTC  

Then I showed that the potential life being preserved damage the already existing life present

2019-05-07 14:59:19 UTC  

No, that was the weakest point you made during the entire discussion

2019-05-07 14:59:25 UTC  

your morals = killing a living being is wrong. science = fetuses aren't living. all that proves is killing fetuses is NOT immoral

2019-05-07 14:59:33 UTC  

there ^^

2019-05-07 14:59:49 UTC  

How so??

2019-05-07 14:59:52 UTC  

If, theoretically, potential life is enough, then harming somebody's social or economic status is not justification for ending it especially when this isn't even the case

2019-05-07 15:00:06 UTC  

oh so potential life is not life?

2019-05-07 15:00:29 UTC  

No? I never claimed it to be, the only reason I participated in the "is it life" discussion was to humor the conversation

2019-05-07 15:00:30 UTC  

science doesn't impact your morals, it impacts the actions and decisions you believe to be moral or immoral

2019-05-07 15:00:37 UTC  

Or are they synonymous under your definition. As in you hold potential life equal to life itself

2019-05-07 15:00:52 UTC  

I think whether scientifically or not a fetus is alive is not important because, morally, I view that potential as the deciding factor.

2019-05-07 15:01:01 UTC  

But earlier you said, "current life has precedent over potential life" so it does justify it

2019-05-07 15:01:23 UTC  

I specified medically

2019-05-07 15:01:53 UTC  

so you think that potential of life will lead to life and when its life we cant kill it?

2019-05-07 15:02:08 UTC  

Then you're limiting it to specific factors which can harm a life. You're ignoring the social and economic damages of having a kid prior to being able to sustain it

2019-05-07 15:02:15 UTC  

Which then ruin both lives

2019-05-07 15:02:36 UTC  

Does this mean you value potential life less or equal to actual life? @Billcat

2019-05-07 15:02:37 UTC  

I'm saying the social and economic factors are not relevant because carrying a baby does not equal raising a child

2019-05-07 15:02:44 UTC  

basically for billcat, he values morals over science. for us, we value science over morals, even though the science does fit our morals.

2019-05-07 15:02:58 UTC  

well thats how i interpret it anyways

2019-05-07 15:03:01 UTC  

yea but you carrying a baby and not aborting will lead to harming the mother

2019-05-07 15:03:04 UTC  

or other people

2019-05-07 15:03:12 UTC  

So then to not raise it you put it up for adoption which I showed is currently a shit place for a child to be

2019-05-07 15:03:18 UTC  

Not quite. I think that science and morals are two separate things that work in tandem, not aagainst each other

2019-05-07 15:03:18 UTC  

why dont we talk about outliers now

2019-05-07 15:03:34 UTC  

Is a shitty place better than dead? @Komrade Kam

2019-05-07 15:03:36 UTC  

you explained your views on the majority

2019-05-07 15:03:39 UTC  

No

2019-05-07 15:03:42 UTC  

depends

2019-05-07 15:03:42 UTC  

Not at al

2019-05-07 15:03:45 UTC  

Then why even say that?

2019-05-07 15:03:50 UTC

2019-05-07 15:03:54 UTC  

They're not dead

2019-05-07 15:03:55 UTC  

Would you say abortion is murder? BillCat

2019-05-07 15:04:03 UTC  

They never were alive to be dead

2019-05-07 15:04:26 UTC  

murder of potential life

2019-05-07 15:04:27 UTC  

So if you never exist it doesn't matter

2019-05-07 15:04:28 UTC  

See, that doesn't logically add up, because we were just now discussing the moral nature of the debate

2019-05-07 15:04:39 UTC  

dude billcat. address the outliers. in cases of abusive relationships, minors getting pregnant, and rape, what are your views on abortion @Billcat
