Catfish, do you like free speech?
If so, are you in complete agreement with, say, the Westboro Baptist Church? Or any other organization in the public arena with unpopular opinions?
If no, does that not, by the same logic, make you a hypocrite?

Are you incapable of accepting nuanced views of things? Is that it?

Silly misrepresentations aside, at least those opposing you have argued something. All you've done is repeated that it's a person, over and over and over, with no justification. Who the hell made you the king of reality?

At what point do you think it becomes human? What was it before that?
Human beings must, by definition, be separate individuals. Fetuses depend on and reside inside of a mother. They do not gain the status of human being by virtue of living inside the body of another human being.
Therefore, by that logic, it becomes a true human being when it no longer needs to depend on the nutrients inside the mother/reside in the mother.

So, you think that someone considering women to be inherently inferior to men and making decision based on that immoral premise is not a reason for others to claim a moral high ground and judge their reasons? Oh right, you probably wouldn't.

I'll ask you the same question then.
If a human fetus is not human, what is it?
Patiently awaiting your denial, deflection and fluff...

You've been answered many times already - its a fetus.

At the point of birth. And did you not read the answer? - its a human fetus.

A good grab Festive. I see that the bill explicitly makes an exemption for abortion. Why?
(supposing you agree with the bill and it's language, or just to play devils advocate)

Why?
Because I want to hear(see) you admit that you know what it is and that you're only relying on the "legal" definition so that you can justify murder, that's why.

Murder is a legal classification as well btw Cat..so I'm not sure why there would be a problem with deferring to the legal definitions of this or that. The Carolina law for example essentially states that a fetus becomes a person (in your mind a human) when someone murders the mother (and thus it along with) - except in the case of abortion.

Let's call it a human. So? The label we give it doesn't make any difference in what it actually is. It's a dumb little thing that nobody wants and will only put a strain on society. Destroy it before it develops. Or 'murder' it, rather. I don't really give a fuck about labels; we're still talking about the same shit. I'm for murdering dumb little humans, yes. So?
