I don't like it when people talk about 'when life begins', when quite clearly an embryo or foetus is alive in the scientific term. But life isn't sacred in a blanket sense, it's more important to look at the quality of the life.

So for me, killing a bundle of cells that can't think or feel at even a basic level doesn't offend and I'm fine with abortion early in the pregnancy.

How exactly would that abortion work? Push him down the stairs?

there is a difference between being aware [ or conscious] and remembering

Me and ethan already had a long debate about THAT topic. I was saying that by Unfan's definition of life, human fetuses' lives are as valuable as animals', which I, along with most of the Republicans against abortion, think are essentially worthless.

Because I don't think animals can love anything. Apparently anyone who has ever owned a pet ever disagrees with that, which is weird cause I've had many pets... I don't think any of them were about to leap in front of a bullet to save my life or anything. That's the end of me talking about that.

My point of course being that TheUnfan can't use his definition as a defense for pro-lifers when pro-lifers are usually the people that devalue animal life.

Ha ha, I think youre getting rover confused with underdog. Im a 'pro-lifer' and I value animal life.

I'm confused. I'd never use my argument to back up a pro-life stance. I'm pro-choice, so it would be counterproductive.

Also, I'm 100% fine with animals dying for consumption.
