Pick whatever rationalizations fit your needs, no problem...So, using your same method of arriving at the bottom line, you place more value on a fertilized egg, fetus or embryo than you do on a person that has already been born, right?The harm is that you are assuming things based on your own interpretation of what I've said. You can assume that you have discovered what I believe, but you really haven't. All I have said is that I put more value on a human being that has been born and is alive than I would on a fertilized egg, fetus or embryo. If we are going to assume based on what has been said, then obviously you would let a woman die rather than let her have an abortion if the pregnancy was going to end up killing her.
I took you for your word when you said this, ".I just don't place more value on a fertilized egg, fetus, or embryo than I do on a person that has already been born"
But you are assuming, or better still, misinterpreting...because my post says that I don't consider a fertilized egg, a fetus or an embryo more important than a person. It doesn't say that I don't consider a fetus, fertilized egg or embryo important, so maybe your comprehension is what is questionable here.Assumption has nothing to do it and you're welcome to change your view at will but don't expect me to not recognize the difference.
I'm willing to drop the abortion issue in this thread but this is the comment that motivated my involvement in the first place .. Post # 184 (this thread)
"Pity that you have so much love for a fetus and so much hate for actual living people. You are thoroughly devoid of reasoning and most assuredly soulless."
Please do explain to me how you get that I don't consider a fetus important, or that I want to abort a fetus, or whatever it is you feel is the belief that I relayed within my quote. I believe you have assumed what you wanted to believe about my position without giving much thought to what I actually said.
At this point I'm a whatever on your contortions, let's drop the subject and move on.
Yeah sure, you just realized that my post didn't say what you insisted it did........it's not "whatever" it is concession without actually admitting it.![]()
I picked the only one that explains the truth. You can't explain how my post says what you think it said, admit it.
