I understand that. I just feel as though it is necessary to provide the scientific evidence as a counter-argument. I do believe in hearing out both sides, and I like to use facts, reason and science in my decisions. I know some prefer to use spirituality, however, in the US separation of church and state is part of the first amendment. Which is why I believe we shouldn’t take away a woman’s choice, and instead that decision needs to be based on the empirical medical evidence.

No, I cannot vote for someone to represent me with their interpretation of their religion in policy.

Wonder how you would judge me. Dem w/tons o guns. Love em, yet think that not everyone is fit for the responsibility. ie a man w history of domestic violence.... just curious, not trying to poke a bear

Thank God I turned my notifications off on this app.
@Sarahgo I'm not going to lecture you on how you should think. If you want to know my reasoning, I made a comment yesterday, towards the top of this section.

Thank God abortion is not defined as murder, right?

I agree. Acting in self defense isn’t the same as being pro war.

I find it interesting that one would think they could do something substantial w a gun. Let’s be honest, If they want you, you gone. Aim, pew pew all ya want...#erased

Now, if you were a computer hack you might could make a blip...

Unless it interferes with another life .....

Should we make murder legal because it’s going to happen anyway?

Not activly but the threat that we might does protect all the others every day.

🙄

You sound like ‘Little Jimmy - who will take all you gimme’

Also, just because I’m in the UK doesn’t mean I like Churchill. He did some rather awful things, especially to junior partners within the empire.

Omg yes please. The basics!

Oh, oops, I meant ecology, not economy.

Depends...
Do they believe in the superiority of the white race?
No? Then I can deal with anything else.

Anyone who will keep religion out of politics, can be bipartisan, won't take any shit from these partisan morons.

Not anymore. I just came out of the bathroom.

How else do you make a woman not pregnant? The embryo/fetus isn't going to survive on the outside anyway.

Well said. I might add a few more issues but this is a good start! Thanks!

By economic policy, are you strictly limiting that to climate change related policies or are there other issues such as healthcare, immigration, foreign policy where economic policy is implied?

I’m not ok with abortions.

That’s my point. People shouldn’t need to know at what week a human child feels pain to decide not to kill it anymore, or to decide it qualifies as a human child in the first place. If you just *don’t* kill the fetus, it will be born, as a normal child.

The fact that people want to get pedantic about heartbeat and brain function is my problem. It shows they want to figure out how to prove they’re right rather than actually step back and think if, holistically, what they’re saying makes sense.

And I do not associate with conservatives.

No, because murder takes away someone’s life.

When they say life begins at conception it’s cellular life. Brain waves do not begin until weeks 5 or 6. The cerebrum doesn’t develop until weeks 8 to 10. The pain receptors with brain connectivity does not develop until 28 to 30 weeks. Or the third trimester. The myth that it begins in week 20, comes from the noxious stimuli. Or the tissue formed being damaged, and therefore causes the tissue to react, but no pain receptors are attached with the brain at this point. The myth that they scream comes from an anti-abortion film. The only sounds heard come from the operation itself.

Do you know how many abortions are done in the third trimester? 1.3%. These are done due to likely death of the mother, terrible life conditions for the soon to be newborn, and/or severe complications that will likely result in horrific results for both of them.

Whether you like it or not abortions are necessary and a medically responsible for some women.

I’ll have the discussion with you.

Can you expand on your stance on abortion? I’m not looking for an argument, just curious really.

hansfords. It isn’t taking all that you will give me. It’s using my tax money for policies that will benefit the greater society.

Against. I'm a prohibitionist.

Don’t know if it’s just bad grammar, but I honestly have no idea what you’re trying to say.

I understand that the scientific evidence is important, and I’m aware of it. Whether unborn babies feel pain or whether brain waves are present doesn’t affect my belief that they were designed for a purpose though.

Just so you know, not only is the separation of church and state not part of the first amendment, it’s not anywhere in the constitution.

How so?

Yep. That’s what I said. 👍

Oh yeah. We’re all out there every day protecting our rights at the end of a gun.

The most important stand is our 1st Amendment rights. You can't have anything else without the right to express what you want and or need.

Ok. How many people would a real revolution take? In my arguments I’m considering one man (a woman would never have this issue btw) and his personal arsenal. Whatever the number is has to be more than the branch dividians had...

Yes please!

Or wait, is this for politicians or personal relations? Because I have no deal breakers when it comes to friends.

😆

As it should be my friend!

Read the Bible. You might learn what sin is. Killing a baby is one of them. Thou shall not kill. Your first lesson in sin.

I am a gun owner as well (though a northerner), and support certain limited gun control measures (background checks, etc). Are there any measures that you would advocate for, or are at least neutral about?

The man has so much say about the poor abortion as the women

Why is that?
