@voydmayj@BugTheFurry@esjesjesj Idk why you deleted your reply linking to the Washington post article, but I thought your graph posted in response to the drawing was meant to imply the correlation between the two. If it's not, then I misinterpreted your purpose in doing so
@BugTheFurry@voydmayj@esjesjesj My point is that the rise in anti LGBTQ rhetoric isnt correlated with any perceived prejudice caused by the current administration as the original post implies, anti LGBTQ sentiment was on the rise before and there's no data to support it's on the rise now in that graph.
@TessaAgain53070@DooginsJim9950@_ChaoticGood42@beyoncegarden Nope, it's ending a life. The purpose of a developing baby is to grow into a life, and with the intervention of an abortion that life is ended. If we can't be honest about what abortion is then there's nothing to be gained from dialogue.
@TessaAgain53070@DooginsJim9950@_ChaoticGood42@beyoncegarden Ending a life, not ending a pregnancy. Sin is not objective, murder is a sin "Thou shalt not kill." The Bible verse means that it's against the will of God to disobey the law, not that the law is God greenlighting sin. You're not ordered by God to get abortions if it's legal lmao
@TessaAgain53070@DooginsJim9950@_ChaoticGood42@beyoncegarden Besides, it's not shifting the goalposts, it's expanding the topic of discussion. There's only so much I can say other than "raping 10 year olds le bad but also murder le bad" lmao. We seem to agree on one of these things but not the other ๐คทโโ๏ธ
@TessaAgain53070@DooginsJim9950@_ChaoticGood42@beyoncegarden Romans13:1-5 "Let every person be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and those that exist have been instituted by God. Therefore whoever resists the authorities resists what God has appointed, and those who resist will incur judgment"
@TessaAgain53070@DooginsJim9950@_ChaoticGood42@beyoncegarden The hypothetical is a mask for the 98%+ of non raped 10 year old abortions to hide behind. It would still be sinful for a life to be taken just as it's sinful to rape a 10 year old. It's would be your decision to disobey the law of the land to voluntarily commit sin. (1/2)
@TessaAgain53070@DooginsJim9950@_ChaoticGood42@beyoncegarden The question was based on a fictional hypothetical 10 year old victim of rape, and the numbers being low for a year doesn't change the 66 million total.
I agree that people have the bodily autonomy to sin, and I have the bodily autonomy to vote against and outlaw sin.
@TessaAgain53070@DooginsJim9950@_ChaoticGood42@beyoncegarden The 66 million abortions since Roe v Wade just 50 years ago isn't so fictitious though. That's an awful lot of 10 year olds, you'd think I'd hear about a 10 year old rape epidemic that large spanning decades. (2/2)
@TessaAgain53070@DooginsJim9950@_ChaoticGood42@beyoncegarden Not moving the goalposts, asking a clarifying question since you seem fixated with a fictitious steelman argument of abortion that applies to an infinitesimally small number of cases. That 2% is every teenage pregnancy too by the way, not just fictional 10 year olds. (1/2)
@TessaAgain53070@DooginsJim9950@_ChaoticGood42@beyoncegarden You're a clump of cells too and yet you still have human rights, it's a meaningless distinction to dehumanize an unborn baby. Meanwhile 98% of abortion patients are adults, so are you suggesting only 2% of abortions are justified in your worldview?
@ladygamer_21@TessaAgain53070@DooginsJim9950@_ChaoticGood42@beyoncegarden He does not "allow" those things to exist. They're the consequences of free will that a benevolent God like him ought to give his loved creations, capable of bad and good alike for better or for worse. Virtue is meaningless if it's a forced choice, whether or not you ought to be.
@rantnamedflik@TessaAgain53070@DooginsJim9950@_ChaoticGood42@beyoncegarden Let's assume God isn't real then and we would have to figure out whether or not to allow abortion, wouldn't you say it's erring on the side of caution not to commit a potential murder if we can't definitively classify that a fetus deserves personhood?
