@VBMillennial@prolifefrenchie It is now a (1)genetically unique (2)living (3)human.
These 3 are facts.
Once this happens, it now becomes a question of greater or lesser humans.
This is the secular reason why it matters to all of society.
@Vynestra@A_Frayed_Mind@amazingatheist By your logic, being a human isn't enough to be endowed human rights.
One has to be aware, able to feel, think, learn, form memories, and have experiences in order to be protected as a human.
I disagree.
@Vynestra@A_Frayed_Mind@amazingatheist "Rights of a human don't start until
full brain development and full comprehension."
You could make the same argument with respect to a child's understanding verses an adult's understanding.
@Thatspetarded@JaffyTaffi@SirSicCrusader Are you implying they were persecuted by the church for some other type of thought crime and not for their science?
Do tell what thought crimes you believe deserve persecution.
@Thatspetarded@JaffyTaffi@SirSicCrusader Aren't threatened:
Galileo Galilei (1564–1642)
Giordano Bruno (1548–1600)
Michael Servetus (1511–1553)
Voltaire (1694–1778)
Baruch Spinoza (1632–1677)
Thomas More (1478–1535)
@underdog1030@notheydontcare I hear there is a 400,000 teacher shortage.
Incase you don't understand the difference between professions.
As an accountant, nobody cares what you do in your personal life or post on socials.
Remember the outcry over teachers with bad Charlie Kirk post.
@hookskat@SenatorBanks As a former boy.... that's the message sent.
Societal norm for a girl getting her period is it's a celebration into womanhood.
Norm for a boy entering manhood is zero discussion, guilt and shame.
The Duggars and the word "Nike" are the extreme example.
Boys are lost
@hookskat@SenatorBanks Girl -> The period = Celebrating her entrance into adulthood
Boy ->The nocturnal emission = shame and guilt. No celebration.
@hookskat Bad take.
Placing value on life has nothing to do with religion.
Pro-life isn't exclusively the religious.
Christopher Hitchens is a famous example of an atheist taking pause with the idea.
@BigPlunn@ViserionRex1@joeroganhq Abusive Grandad complains about his dysfunctional family.
Cultures result from experiences.
A tiny subset of Americans identified by their skin color have some issues with parts their urban poverty culture that was developed through centuries of slavery and segregation.
@BigPlunn@ViserionRex1@joeroganhq What is a nog?
If Martin Luther King Jr. had not been murdered, he could have been doing this interview with Trump.
Martin Luther King Jr. was born the same year as Barbara Walters.
Just because it's older than your personal history, doesn't make it ancient history.
