No, I won't do that, because you are not in charge of the debate rules.FACTS ARE FACTS. If I say, "I think the world is round", is that just an opinion, or is it a Fact, or is it both? I will agree that significant parts of my post that you quoted were opinion, but can you prove the Positive Claim that all of it was **only** opinion? Well???
Opinions are relative until evidenced with solid facts and analyzed with critical thinking.If I may ask, are you trying to endorse relativism?
ONE NEED NOT BE IN CHARGE OF THE RULES TO ASK IF ONE WILL FOLLOW THE RULES. It appears the idiocy you consider to be "logic" is still spewing. Tsk, tsk!No, I won't do that, because you are not in charge of the debate rules.
PROOF OF WHAT, EXACTLY? My post #375 only talked about stuff in #372, and I'm not aware of attempting to prove something in that post. I merely explained some things, and, yes, offered some opinions.I finally have you admitting that your "proof"
TALKING ABOUT YOURSELF AGAIN, I SEE. Tsk, tsk!That you think you understand the rules is part of the problem: you don't.
TELLING A STUPID LIE AGAIN, I SEE. Tsk, tsk! It is entirely because you repeated your positive claim without offering any supporting evidence, that I get to conclude you have spouted a Stupid Lie.Thank you for admitting you have no proof.
I ACCEPT THE COMPLEMENT OF BEING SUPERIOR AT DEBATE. Thanks!You remind me of a colleague in one of my grad classes: not a good comparison at all.
You can accept you are full of bologna, yes. :lamo Tsk Tsk.TALKING ABOUT YOURSELF AGAIN, I SEE. Tsk, tsk!

ANOTHER POSITIVE CLAIM BY JAMESBY, worthless because unsupported by any data whatsoever.You can accept you are full of bologna, yes. :lamo Tsk Tsk.

We can argue when abortion should be illegal and at what stage of the pregnancy, but to me, that's the smaller debate. And if you're not educated on the development of a fetus, then you don't know what you're talking about.
But do you concede that at some point, based on the status of the fetus, that it should be illegal past a certain point in the pregnancy?
When I say based on the status of the fetus, that's important.
Because some will concede because of risks involving the mother during late term abortion, but not for any ethical opinions relating to the fetus. To me that's extremely selfish and devoid of morality. '
You have to concede that a some point abortion should be illegal because the fetus has developed so much that it's not ethical to kill it. I don't buy the viability argument.
I don't see how whether a fetus can live outside the womb or not is relevant to whether it's deserving of personhood.
And "personhood" is a social construct. Scientifically speaking it's a human with human DNA at every stage of pregnancy. But ethically there's clearly a difference between a fertilized egg and an 8 month old fetus.
I'm not pro-life... But I can't stand the selfishness I see from pro-choice people who basically see any ethical argument that pertains to the fetus as "sexist".
Apparantly, EVERY argument has to be about them.
I think most pro-lifers are pretty dumb too, but at the same time, pro-choice people tend to make strawmen about "sexism" which is just stupid. There's an argument to be had about when abortion is okay and when it isn't.
And you can chime in as a male and not be "sexist"
WHICH IS EXACTLY WHY HIS CLAIM IS WORTHLESS. At a Debate site, saying something is so, while in total ignorance of any relevant Facts about the "something", is idiotic.In order to support it he would have to know how much bologna you ate for lunch...

ZERO. In fact, I'm pretty sure I haven't eaten any bologna in months. There are less-expensive and higher-quality foods that I prefer, over bologna.So how much bologna did you eat for lunch? Just be forthright so we can end this charade!!

BAD LOGIC. There are far more things than bologna and baloney, of which someone might be full.OK. You are not full of bologna then... so you must be full of baloney.

THAT ARGUMENT WAS OFF-TOPIC. PLUS, it was just a Stupid Lie, not really an argument, because there was no supporting evidence provided by the claimant.The argument was that you were full of bologna.
SEE ABOVE. A Stupid Lie does not qualify as an argument.Do you deny this?

STUPIDLY FALSE. Any Debate argument that contains a positive claim must be supported with evidence. The failure to include the evidence is what makes the claim not-an-argument. It is just a claim. And since the claim was untrue, it was a lie.Arguing that you are full of bologna is not a lie... and it is an argument.
