Morality isn;t objective so it has to be scientific

2019-05-07 14:52:20 UTC  

Otherwise you can't prove anything

2019-05-07 14:52:26 UTC  

its so wrong to take away the rights of an actual living being because of "the potential of a life"

2019-05-07 14:52:43 UTC  

Morality is nothing but some bullshit taught to you as a child so you don't shove the girl you like

2019-05-07 14:52:57 UTC  

I truly believe that 50 years from now, we're going to look back on widespread abortion the same way we do on lobotomies and electroshock therapy. Science is not a tool for moral right or wrong, because science does not determine whether potential life is enough or not. Science tells you how and why things work, not if it's ok they do so

2019-05-07 14:52:58 UTC  

pro lifers = absolute moralists

2019-05-07 14:53:05 UTC  

pro choicers = relative moralists

2019-05-07 14:53:14 UTC  

Morality is just bullshit, right man. You have a good day.

2019-05-07 14:53:24 UTC  

It is

2019-05-07 14:53:29 UTC  

lol i disagree on that

2019-05-07 14:53:31 UTC  

how did this become a salt battle lol

2019-05-07 14:53:49 UTC  

science proves stuff

2019-05-07 14:53:54 UTC  

If you truly believe that then, wow. There is a point in a discussion where somebody is so radically different that finding common ground is impossible

2019-05-07 14:54:17 UTC  

we did find common ground

2019-05-07 14:54:23 UTC  

late term abortions are wrong

2019-05-07 14:54:23 UTC  

Believing that morals are pointless in a discussion regarding the morality of potential live is just a waste of time. We did, ashnaa, but not komrade

2019-05-07 14:54:36 UTC  

yeah

2019-05-07 14:55:01 UTC  

You make your morals

2019-05-07 14:55:18 UTC  

Of course make your own morals. Does that mean they don't matter?

2019-05-07 14:55:44 UTC  

If you don't have morals then what do you have to base decisions off of?

2019-05-07 14:55:54 UTC  

instinct

2019-05-07 14:55:56 UTC  

logic

2019-05-07 14:56:05 UTC  

yes, morality is subjective, so it can be complicated but it's not useless

2019-05-07 14:56:21 UTC  

I have basic morals, for this however I base my decision on the science we've found

2019-05-07 14:56:34 UTC  

there are other things that are factors of decision making, but morality is definitely a factor

2019-05-07 14:56:42 UTC  

You can't hide behind science as an excuse for not having morals lol, both are incredibly important to how we function

2019-05-07 14:56:49 UTC  

ok so your point is science > morals, which i agree with to a certain extent

2019-05-07 14:57:20 UTC  

The science shows it is not morally wrong as you're not KILLING anything as there is nothing ALIVE

2019-05-07 14:57:23 UTC  

Science does not drive an agenda, you cannot make an abstract decision because science told you so. Science tells you *how* and *why* , what you do with that information is where morals come in

2019-05-07 14:57:25 UTC  

Science is just the proof to your own moral code

2019-05-07 14:57:38 UTC  

If you dont agree on morals any science present to argue the other side is invalid

2019-05-07 14:57:43 UTC  

Science shows they're not living in the first trimester

2019-05-07 14:58:09 UTC  

And that's why I tend not to argue about what is or is not alive, because in my mind ***that does not matter, what matters is the clearly defined potential for life***

2019-05-07 14:58:33 UTC  

That is a moral view, that I hold, which has nothing to do with the science behind whether or not a fetus is alive

2019-05-07 14:58:42 UTC  

science doesn't change your morals

2019-05-07 14:58:48 UTC  

Exactly, yes.

2019-05-07 14:58:52 UTC  

Science only proves morals

2019-05-07 14:58:55 UTC  

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
