hey justin. What percentage of abortions are rape related? What percentage are threatening to the mother. I am all for these types of medical procedures but when it is done for the mother's convenience (and tha tis really what it is) I think it is just crap. Cuba is a ridiculous dictatorship. Believe me, I have spent a lot of time there. Not i nth resorts either. I did religious/ humanitarian work there and also filmed a doc there. I was also there to hear Castro speak on 'anti-American day.' Apples and Oranges my friend.

Thanks man!

I love that you people call yourselves the "accepting," "non-judgmental," people and you say that you are accepting of "everyone." Do you not see a problem when you want to shit on a certain group of people? You hypocritical fuck.

What tipped you off? The laughing graemlin?

You guys obviously don't know much about the religion. It would be the same as to base Islam on bin Laden. Read up or shut up.

This is a shocker why?

...thus sayeth the nerd.

I believe that by killing someone, their rights are somewhat infringed. I think that a mother having to carry for 9 months is a lot let problematic than being murdered.

Population centers are typically seen along the oceans and on rivers.

I hope you all notice that the IQ's are from college students. I would think that it would be better to do an average IQ of the general population. Also given that the average IQ is 100, I would think that calling someone 'dumb' for having a 98 is pretty senseless. Maybe the fact that larger cities have better Universities and pool better resources?

Shit! Man! That happened to me right before a track meet. Lost a track scholarship because of that one.

I choose to give the fetus the benefeit of the doubt; considering it is its life on the line. If there is any doubt why not air on the side of caution; to save lives rather than take them?

Maybe I just look at it differently than you. I see the conception resulting in merely a mass replication of cells. Only after attachment does the replication begin to assume the human form/organs. This also has certain social considerations. It is far more likely that people will agree on my "compromise" as opposed to the extremes pointed out by the other sides. Like I said maybe we look at it differently somehow but that's cool. I think I'd better scoot to class.

you should play rugby then! way less rules.

I played since I was a little kid. I stopped playing seriously after I got really tall. We outta have a cc.com pick-up game sometime!

developmental individuality does not begin until after the cells are latched onto the uterus. It is merely a conglomeration of cells until it is attached. As soon as it is attached, it begins the process of growing into the form of a human. At two weeks (or shortly after implantation) the heart is formed, functional and operating. I make a distinction between the mass replication of cells prior to attachment and the specific creation of bodyparts by replication that happens post implantation. These replications actually make human body parts like the heart which as i said before is functioning very soon after the implantation.

Actually a heart beat is detectable after only 2 weeks. The reason that I am in favor of morning-after alternatives and an outright ban on abortion is that you have to wait to have an abortion (chemical or otherwise) until it is way past this level of development. That is why I am all for a total ban on abortion but ok with IDU's etc.

Ooooh hey! I implied that you were both juveniles (that is why I included the ). I don't do drugs anymore but I will partake of my spiritual soma and be on my way. adieu

classic!

Read my lips: Put Down The Bong.

Well the deal is that it isn't even a fetus prior to implantation. Once implantation occurs the embryo is created and the embryo grows organs. I would say that when it is just cells replicating I don't think of it as a human.

as long as you make statements like this, the right will continue to drift right and any hope of you finding an electable candidate left of Churchill will be hopeless. If the Christian right in places like Oklahoma can tell people on the west coast who they can and can't marry then we can make jokes about feeding them to the lions. You are all juveniles. Maybe you can grow up and act like adults and sort your shit out rather than being a wedge making our country more and more divided. You think you are any better than they are? Give me a break. I am for gay mariages. Yeah go throw me to the lions too though ass hole.
