superstition is one amongst many possible irrational sources of justification for opposition against things that help mankind

it just happens to be the most popular source of opposition so it seems like i'm singling it out


..so does a person have to be religious in order to object to the use of fetuses for medical reasons ?

No... but they have to be religious to claim they know when a foetus has developed enough to be considered human.

Derp.

A fetus is not a human being. It is a human fetus. It is life, and the religious believe it has a soul, and deserves protection.

Are you willfully ignorant of your opponents views or what?

It's a stage in human development.

Note the human part.

...it has been discussed ad nauseam on this forum .

Stop pretending you're some kind of scientific whiz kid and allow people to express their religious convictions without acting like an ignorant child by attacking their intelligence . Except for Skinned and one or 2 others on this forum the upper levels on the intelligence scale are easily owned by the religious posters of PaRD .

That's like, your opinion man.

Not new information.



So opposition to what one views as murder relies purely on superstition? Stretch harder.

My bad. Maybe I should have worded it more carefully so you could catch my meaning - at what point a clump of cells becomes an independent being*

no doubt you believe that about as confidently as you spent however many years believing i was black

lol, i haven't forgotten some of your retarded attempts at insulting me with racist jabs against black folks

if you were half as intelligent as you thought you were you wouldn't be taken for a ride so easily
