@ScottMGreer All the right does is bitch and complain lol

[Logical Luminary @ReasonUnchains]

@jordan_myers @gomeshiro @DramaAlert I can’t know it firsthand, you’re correct

But there’s a difference between knowing exactly what it’s like and having enough understanding of people’s experiences to form a moral judgment

[Logical Luminary @ReasonUnchains]

The argument isn’t about whether the fetus is living. It’s about whether terminating a pregnancy is morally identical to killing a child or adult. It’s not…

Plants are alive. Bacteria are alive. Human skin cells are alive. Are they all equal to a born person because they are living things?

[Logical Luminary @ReasonUnchains]

@0JAYSZN So if they did give birth and offered the baby with down syndrome to you to adopt and care for the rest of your life, you would take it on right?

[Logical Luminary @ReasonUnchains]

@jordan_myers @gomeshiro @DramaAlert Complete firsthand understanding isn’t required to make moral judgments

By that logic, nobody could have opinions about poverty unless they’ve been poor

[Logical Luminary @ReasonUnchains]

@jordan_myers @DramaAlert No because those are two different situations. Believing that parents may choose whether to continue a pregnancy is not the same as believing it’s acceptable to kill people who are already living

The question is about reproductive choice and the moral status of a fetus

[Logical Luminary @ReasonUnchains]

@Hoozbad @DramaAlert I think you’re an awful person

[Logical Luminary @ReasonUnchains]

@Hoozbad @Treerootz @FlashFireFist_ @DramaAlert That’s funny because the god of the Bible has ordered the murder of innocent children before

[Logical Luminary @ReasonUnchains]

@gomeshiro @jordan_myers @DramaAlert Exactly

And if I had the choice right now to either live with down syndrome or die I’d rather die because I understand what it would mean to live with down syndrome

That’s why I don’t disagree with their decision to terminate the pregnancy

[Logical Luminary @ReasonUnchains]

@jordan_myers @DramaAlert It is the question being asked because I am asking it

You refuse to answer the question because you know what your answer would be

I disagree. A Down syndrome life would not be worth living. If I had the choice, I would rather not live

[Logical Luminary @ReasonUnchains]

@Hoozbad @DramaAlert Would you prefer they gave birth to a child they didn’t want?

[Logical Luminary @ReasonUnchains]

@jordan_myers @DramaAlert But if you could choose, would you willing live your life with Down syndrome?

[Logical Luminary @ReasonUnchains]

@LuckyKnotai @DramaAlert I bet you do

[Logical Luminary @ReasonUnchains]

@FriedCringe @DramaAlert Fair enough. I couldn’t disagree more tho

[Logical Luminary @ReasonUnchains]

@jordan_myers @DramaAlert I disagree that it’s immoral

But if you could choose, would you willing live your life with Down syndrome?

[Logical Luminary @ReasonUnchains]

@SINKgerard @4WhomJBellTolls You started it pal

[Logical Luminary @ReasonUnchains]

@__cousin__ @dps2323 Does everything need to be explicitly spelled out for you to understand context?

[Logical Luminary @ReasonUnchains]

@samazzouz @Savageboston I find it hard to believe they don’t want him at all. They just don’t want to give up JB for him

[Logical Luminary @ReasonUnchains]

@SINKgerard @4WhomJBellTolls Yea but it’s more fun with a lot of money on the line

Why are you arguing just for the sake of arguing lol
