Sacred is sacred.

INherent is inherent.

"you're assuming my position"

ffs I hate it when people weasel.

no, he was asking a question.

pardon... So 'someone' can believe that a human life is sacred, but 'someone' can also believe it is not sacred?

I think you shoul dbe more aware of the ethical and religious use of sacred, and also of inherent in terms of philosophy.

there is obviously a continuum where you have life-is-sacred pro-lifers on the edge and limited-case pro-lifers further down the line

Inherent implies that whether you are there, or not, it still is.

And I am arguing that is cognitive disonance, or a lack of proper word usage.

absolutely not

Obviously so.

When a tree falls in a forest, and no one is there to hear it, does it make a sound?

Soyboy cucks: Dunno.
Science: YES YOU MORONS

pro-lifers don't necessarily believe life is sacred. they simply recognize the rights we afford to beings who come into the world

that's actually bullshit.

I never said they did.

look are you guys incapable of noticing that there are many ways to take the pro-life position? it's not a monolith

i haven't ever seen a prolifer ever claim to not care about the sanctity of life.

You're incapable of separating an ethical argument from a personal stance.

That is anecdotal.

For both of you.

unrelated but everytime I read prolifer, it read it as in the beginning of proliferate

i agree

what's anecdotal?

I have argued that *some* argue absolute sacredness of life, and others do not... Those that do not have cognitive dissonance. At least the absolute sacred people are against capital punishment and/or lethal self defense when pressured.

you're a prolifer? dang, I'm only an amateurlifer

better than a journeymanlifer

and i'm here telling you that's a false dichotomy

@Malign anecdotal : based on or consisting of reports or observations of usually unscientific observers

How is that a false dichotomy?

You're going to have to argue against the basic understanding of the word 'sacred'

sa·credDictionary result for sacred
/ˈsākrəd/Submit
adjective
connected with God (or the gods) or dedicated to a religious purpose and so deserving veneration.

because i can fulfil every qualification of your 1st group without giving a shit about what's sacred

Then my argument isn't inherently directed at you, now is it?

then you would be venerating the sanctiy of life.

You took offense where you shouldn't because you don't understand the nature of the statement you're arguing against.
