The Big Premise

A fairly incoherent attempt at a response to InModiasWeTrust but I think I got the main points...

Here are his videos:
Part 1 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_nxXw-CQCoU&feature=response_watch
Part 2 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mz2GVPdjSwY&feature=response_watch

Also doubles as a drinking game. Just take a drink of some kind of non-alcoholic juice every time I say the word "premise" and you'll be in the bathroom in no time. Good Lord, I need to stop typing everything I think...

Good response. I agree with you on abortion, what is your belief about rape victims? Should they give birth?

[BigSpoon19]

I think that's an incredibly difficult situation. That said, I think that if we come to the conclusion that abortion is wrong and is the ending of a human life--and this is why I think it's crucial to have the general abortion discussion first--then the fact that the child is a product of rape does not affect the moral value of the abortion. Rape is a horrible thing but if it's a child then abortion is still wrong, I think.

Hey BigSpoon... I will respond to this video as soon as I can. I am in the middle of a few things at the moment, so don't think I'm avoiding you. For what it's worth, I'm very much enjoying this debate, and I think we are getting closer and closer to having a real discussion. In my next video, I will present evidence for the specific question posed. I hope you are well.

Thanks Matthew. I look forward to it. 

Cheers,

Jeff
