  • But how can we live in a society where the killing and euthanization of animals are looked down upon, but abortions of human foetus are found to be humane because the fetus is not a person. Animals are not people, but we still view them as deserving of rights. And the euthanization of for example, dogs in a shelter after a certain period of days, is seen to be a way of saving money or because the dog cannot be cared for. Same as a human fetus. Can't you see that we are treating humans like dogs?

  • @UTubeLightBulb "But how can we live in a society where the killing and euthanization of animals are looked down upon,"

    It isn't looked down upon. Animals are euthanized for a variety of reasons, such as to alleviate their suffering as they are dying, or because they are dangerous. It's only a problem of ethics when healthy animals are euthanized in crowded shelters.

    "but abortions of human foetus are found to be humane because the fetus is not a person."

    You just answered your own question.

  • @myquestionis123 An individual what, dearie? Given the general tenor of your recent discussion, I'm going to guess you mean "individual human being", rather than "individual rock", or "individual orange" or even "individual human conceptus". I have repeatedly discussed consciousness as a determining characteristic of personhood, and therefore of "human beingness", and have said that consciousness does not arise til after birth. You have enough information to answer this question

  • @pirbird14 So when were you an individual?

  • @myquestionis123 ' " btw some slave states did recognize slaves as person. " and some people today recognize the unborn as a person so what is your point? '

    I was suggesting you get your facts straight before attempting to make whatever point you were attempting when you raised the issue of slavery in the first place. Evidently, you were attempting to draw some sort of analogy. It won't work till you get your facts straight.

  • @myquestionis123 "where do those rights come from"

    lol. They don't "come from" anywhere. They inhere in the individual. Look up "inhere". lol.
