    History Of Countries That Have Banned Firearms

    That is just factually incorrect. I'm a religious Jew and I personally know and have heard from holocaust survivors. The overwhelming majority of Jews did not have any means to resist the Nazis. The Jews that did have firearms were at a severe disadvantage because they were both morally and...

    Re: pro-life Calling people who disagree with you as bad as slaveowners is disgusting. And if you actually look at the polls the majority of Americans support restrictions on abortions. Science is not on your side dude.

    Re: pro-life The baby didn't chose to be conceived. The mother brought the baby into existence. A trespasser is different because it wasn't in your power to let him on your property.

    Re: pro-life This logic is absolutely wrong. Evil is still evil no matter what genitalia I have and I can still call it out. Wwas wrong for the North to dictate to the South that it is wrong to hold slaves? After all, what gives them the right to dictate morality to people who are very...

    Re: pro-life The supreme court is not the moral arbiter in this country. Just because something is legal doesn't mean that it is morally correct. According to your logic that anything the supreme court says is correct what about the Dred Scott decision? What about Skinner V. Oklahoma where the...

    Re: pro-life I understand that abortion is very complicated and complicates the lives of those involved. I'm just making the moral argument. And yes it is binary because if a fetus is a human life you have no right to kill it, and if it is just a random cluster of cells with no moral value then...

    Re: pro-life I would seriously suggest you reflect on if you are spending your time wisely if you are learning about science through movies and fantasy books. Just because the Indian government recognized dolphins as 'people' doesn't mean that non-humans can be people. And to your claim about...

    Re: pro-life I don't see the point in arguing over word choice because 'person' and 'human' are synonymous. All people are humans and all humans are people. Advocating for 'human rights doesn't mean that you believe that all non-humans don't have any rights at all. All you are advocating for...

    Re: pro-life I did say that if the mother's life is in danger then an abortion would be appropriate. In every other case the only rights that the mother is losing due to pregnancy is convenience while the fetus could potentially lose its right to life. I don't see how the mother's right to...

    The only question up for debate when discussing abortion is whether a fetus is a human life. If a fetus is a human life then you have no right to kill it. The most consistent pro-life position is that life begins at conception. Once the child is conceived, it has different DNA from the mother...
