Is an acorn an oak tree?

[Joe Hill]

Is a zygote a human? In the Bible the OT Hebrew god threatened his people with causing miscarriages. Is the LORD an abortionist?

The Bible wasn't written by "God" nor was it handed down to anybody like the Qur'an was. Some guy wrote the above.

A human what? A human being/person? No.

In the Bible the OT Hebrew god threatened his people with causing miscarriages. Is the LORD an abortionist?

He's much worse than that: "The God of the Old Testament is arguably the most unpleasant character in all fiction: jealous and proud of it; a petty, unjust, unforgiving control-freak; a vindictive, bloodthirsty ethnic cleanser; a misogynistic, homophobic, racist, infanticidal, genocidal, filicidal, pestilential, megalomaniacal, sadomasochistic, capriciously malevolent bully."

I gotta tell ya, if God is real he's a ****ing dick and I want nothing to do with him.

The Old Testament is a wreck. Maybe that's why Jesus tried to set the record straight? :shrug:

He's a tyrant, but I could see why some people would find that all powerful father protector appealing. I have no interest in serving a tyrant however.

Set the record straight? You sure?:

Matthew 5-17: Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them.

The Bible wasn't written by "God" nor was it handed down to anybody like the Qur'an was. Some guy wrote the above.

Some guy wrote all of the Bible and all of the Qu'ran and all of the Torah and all of every supposed "holy book". It's all the work of delusional men writing delusional ideas about imaginary gods.

I thought you figured that out by now.

Isn’t Zygote the mystical land where socks travel to when you place them in the dryer?
Or maybe it was the land Smeagol was from.

So Jihad Joe I take it this is just another “Look how evil they are” thread?

I thought this was the "abortion" page. Looks like we are all in agreement on the invalidity of claiming that the Bible supports the opinions of anti-choicer wingnuts, Crusader Cherokee.



There can be no return to democracy in a nation that has abandoned the line between church and state to become a nation that abides religion-based, unprovoked war, i.e., not without an ideological revolution and a return to the natural philosophy which gave democracy birth. America has ultimately only one choice, to get intelligent and to get real... about our values, our beliefs and ideologies and our operational policies in a global world.

The OT is not a "wreck". It was written a very long time ago by a group of warlike nomads. It is par for the course (for that time).

If it is a human zygote then it is human and it is being. It is at a particular stage in life that every other human that ever exist once exist at. It is not a dog, it is not a monkey, it is one thing only, a human, and it is being. Zygote only describes a stage of life for that particular life not what kind of life it is. There are dog zygotes and monkey zygotes, and worm zygotes and human zygotes. They are all unique and different. And they are all being.

It is "being". :roll:

Buster Brown, ain't nobody fvcking "being" at my expense. At my family's expense.

If it is "being" by burrowing into the lining of my internal organs and sucking away my bodily resources without my permission, it's gonna be "being" evicted.
It's about as relevant as one of my toenail clippings, which are in fact a whole lot more relevant, seeing as how they are also "being", and contain millions of "human" cells, rather than just one.

I assume you mean "person" as no one disputes the presence of human DNA.

A Zygote? Perhaps not.

An Embrio? Sure, it could be.

A Fetus? Yes.

The Lord does as the Lord wills. What is it to you if a pregnancy from thousands of years ago were terminated by God? How does that affect you?

 

[1069]

The Lord does as the Lord wills. What is it to you if a pregnancy from thousands of years ago were terminated by God? How does that affect you?

What is it to you if a thousand pregnancies right this minute are terminated by whoever?
You'd never even know, let alone care.
If a million pregnancies spontaneously and simultaneously terminated right now, the only way it would adversely affect your life or anybody else's would be if the sewers got clogged with them. Which would be a minor incovenience, easily rectified.

 

[Jerry]

What is it to you if a thousand pregnancies right this minute are terminated by whoever?

What is that to me?

That's women acting like my mother did to me, and I abore it.

It is because of her actions that I opose abortion, so if anyone ever askes you "so what if a couple gets divorced? how does that affect you"; you can say "well because of their divorce, there's this guy on DP I have to deal with...."

My parent's divorce is dyrectly affecting you right now as you read this.

However, you are now talking about what *people* currently do, not what God did thousands of years ago.

Fine, the OT is a bunch of myths and stories written by a group of warlike nomads. It's no more true than any of the nonsense in the NT. Better?

 

[Edify_Always_In_All_Ways]

An acorn is... is...

A cute little baby oak tree! Yes! I'd better go protest against some squirrels- they're tree abortionists!

Sorry, couldn't resist. :mrgreen:

 

[Stinger]

It is "being". :roll:

Yes it is "being", just as every human being who has ever existed.

You need a good course in biology.

A girl sends this picture....

Is this a baby? Was this a baby? Could it have been someones baby? When one is lost, when there is a spontaneous abortion, does a mother say that they have lost there baby, or there fetus or zygote? We say weve lost our baby... most times that I know.
