No, that was the weakest point you made during the entire discussion
your morals = killing a living being is wrong. science = fetuses aren't living. all that proves is killing fetuses is NOT immoral
there ^^
How so??
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
oh so potential life is not life?
No? I never claimed it to be, the only reason I participated in the "is it life" discussion was to humor the conversation
science doesn't impact your morals, it impacts the actions and decisions you believe to be moral or immoral
Or are they synonymous under your definition. As in you hold potential life equal to life itself
I think whether scientifically or not a fetus is alive is not important because, morally, I view that potential as the deciding factor.
But earlier you said, "current life has precedent over potential life" so it does justify it
I specified medically
so you think that potential of life will lead to life and when its life we cant kill it?
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
Which then ruin both lives
Does this mean you value potential life less or equal to actual life? @Billcat
I'm saying the social and economic factors are not relevant because carrying a baby does not equal raising a child
basically for billcat, he values morals over science. for us, we value science over morals, even though the science does fit our morals.
well thats how i interpret it anyways
yea but you carrying a baby and not aborting will lead to harming the mother
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
Not quite. I think that science and morals are two separate things that work in tandem, not aagainst each other
why dont we talk about outliers now
Is a shitty place better than dead? @Komrade Kam
you explained your views on the majority
No
depends
Not at al
Then why even say that?

They're not dead
Would you say abortion is murder? BillCat
They never were alive to be dead
murder of potential life
So if you never exist it doesn't matter
See, that doesn't logically add up, because we were just now discussing the moral nature of the debate
dude billcat. address the outliers. in cases of abusive relationships, minors getting pregnant, and rape, what are your views on abortion @Billcat
one sec ashnaa
ok
I point out that i'm speaking *exclusively* from my moral viewpoint, so you participate in this, and then once I point out your moral inconsistency, you retreat to the scientific definition of life @Komrade Kam
