  • God killed his own son apparently - the fact he let him suffer for 30 + years before he did it is even more cruel than letting mary have an abortion after getting up the duff at 14 by an old man. Would have spared us 2,000 years of this crap too ...

  • @stockinettestitch Actually studying this subject is the only recommendation I have for you.

  • @stockinettestitch It's called a joke.

  • @stockinettestitch -there is a massive difference between preventing conception of human life(pulling out does the same thing) and killing a human being with a heartbeat albeit in early stages.Abortion also has different stages.'Late term abortions' lance children as late as 7-8 months in the mothers womb through the skull to kill them.This is also the same as teh pill you think?

  • @stockinettestitch He certainly wasn't right about everything. Just almost everything :p

    So weird to talk about him in past tense...

  • @sk8tafrnk Horse shit. There's nothing complicated about it. The choice is made BEFORE sex. The fact that there are responsibilities for one's actions is what sucks sometimes, but that doesn't make it complicated. As for rape, familial or not, it deserves a minimum of 25 yrs in prison to show how serious it is. If the victim has to bear a child (forced on her by the man btw, not the law), then he deserves a punishment to equal that. (No, the child isn't a punish., but the circumstance is.)

  • @ImperialUSA You should be proud that you're able to still see when an emperor isn't wearing any clothing. I love Hitch - I was sad to hear of his passing and hoped he didn't die in pain. And I'll miss hearing his reason and wit but that doesn't mean he was right about everything.

  • @Pitttdog Doesn't it depend on the type of bc? The pill absolutely can be considered an abortifacient. It can work in two ways. 1: In preventing ovulation. Yay! 2: In not allowing the fertilized egg to attach itself to the uterine wall. There's the abortion part of it. The baby's already begun growing.

  • @SGTChuck82 Only if a sperm fertilizes an egg in the mouth before heading down the esophagus. Are you kidding?  That's a W.E.A.K. analogy.

  • He really lost me here. Is he OK with abortion or not?
