No. I see it more like birth control

@BigImo by murdering a human life?
BigImo · 22-25, F
@Harmony it isn't a human life, and keeping it would destroy my life. My life is more important than a blob of cells
@BigImo Aren't we all ultimately a blob of cells by your logic? An unborn baby at 12 weeks is perfectly formed, with all its major organs and little fingers and toes, needing just time to grow and develop.

If it was just a blob of cells they wouldn't have to put the baby back together after the abortion to check that no arms or legs or part of the torso etc has been left behind.

I get that you value yourself over an unwanted child but do you have the courage to face that rather than offer a facile dehumanisation?

@Activitykittens all of my abortions have been before they formed into anything resembling a human. It could be fully formed and I would still support someone for choosing to abort it because their life is far more valuable. Unborn foetuses who can't think or eat or breathe shouldn't get more rights than a living breathing woman

@BigImo they can't speak but they would say don't kill me.

@Harmony so would chickens probably but that didn't stop me from devouring those nuggets I had earlier
Harmony · 31-35
@BigImo it shows how ignorant you are , you compare chickens and humans
BigImo · 22-25, F
@Harmony you compare a useless blob of cells to a fully formed human capable of thought and understanding
Harmony · 31-35
@BigImo A foetus is a potential human just as a child is a potential adult. The DNA in the unborn is the same DNa in all humans no matter what stage of growth.

@BigImo but birth control is BEFORE fertilization
fetus is ALIVE according to biology and undoubtedly a separate human from mother not her body not her DNA

@BigImo about blob of cells, that would only justify when it is a blob but by 12 week like french law (2010) more complex than blob of cell crime to kill human live fetus.
BigImo · 22-25, F
@Harmony I care more about an actual human than a potential human
BigImo · 22-25, F
@strait46 I'm not saying it is birth control. I'm saying it's more like birth control than it is like murder
BigImo · 22-25, F
@strait46 French law doesn't apply to me
Harmony · 31-35
@BigImo you mean you care more for killing?
BigImo · 22-25, F
@Harmony I really don't understand why you bothered making this post
Harmony · 31-35
@BigImo to make aware that abortion = murder
BigImo · 22-25, F
@Harmony but why? Why did you feel the need to do that?
Harmony · 31-35
@BigImo I feel it needed to be said for all those unborn babies who have no voice
BigImo · 22-25, F
@Harmony then why did you frame it as a question in your post? Were you unsure?
Harmony · 31-35
@BigImo no, i was sure and it was a question
BigImo · 22-25, F
@Harmony why ask if you already know the answer?
Harmony · 31-35
@BigImo As I said earlier, I wanted to know how many users didn't care about the life of the unborn. Simple.
Harmony · 31-35
@BigImo you mean any law doesn't apply to you.
BigImo · 22-25, F
@Harmony do you regularly have dead babies on your mind?
