Replicating =/= debunking.
I would love to review the actual study that has concluded that every other peer reviewed publication has been debunked. But then again, how do we know it won’t be one of the half that is debunked hmmmmmmm

Every other research article is de-bunked? That’s your position?
Man, then I am one lucky guy. I’ve got roughly 70 peer reviewed publications (not so subtle brag, I get it), and to my knowledge none of them have been debunked. 0.5^(70) is a very very small number. Need to go buy a lottery ticket ASAP.

re: Case of brain-dead pregnant woman kept on life support in Georgia raises tricky questions

This is not relevant to the discussion.
You understand this woman is dead, right? Not like in a persistent vegetative state. But like, dead dead.
If you don’t think there is a difference between someone walking into a clinic to get an abortion, and someone who is dead, being allowed to…idk, be treated with the same dignity we treat everyone else in the hospital who is declared dead, then we’ll just have to agree to disagree then and move on.
I’m just glad enough people with more common sense understand this nuance. In your view, someone who has a stroke while driving and unfortunately kills someone is as morally abhorrent as someone who spends 3 months planning on how to kill his wife.

Why is someone dying different than murder?
Bc dying from a heart attack is different from someone getting shot in the temple? One ends up with someone in jail and the other doesn’t. Just bc they both end up in a fatality doesn’t mean they are similar in any other way my guy.
quote:
Because someone intended to end the life of a human being, took steps to end that life, and succeeded. Motive, act, result.
You are too dumb to realize you are making my exact point for me :lol:
Well done :cheers:

It's an extremely small contingent if at all. By far the extreme majority view is that it's a human being, it has human DNA and it passes all qualifiers for being alive. If they found a fetus on Mars, the headline would be life found on Mars. Someone on life support but alert is in the same dependent position as the fetus here. The baby won't grow into a human being, the baby is a human being.
Let me try this one more time, since you clearly aren’t understanding my point.
I understand everything you just said. Now given that, explain to me why abortion is viewed as murder by people who advocate your position, while a miscarriage is not.

Lawmakers have already done that via the 2007 Georgia Advance Directive for Health Care Act. Life support can only be withdrawn from a mother if both of the following are true: 1) the baby is not viable 2) the mother has advanced directive stating her desire to withdraw life support
Thanks for sharing, I was unaware of this law. This being a consequence of recent abortion law changes was clearly the media being intentionally misleading.
I am not a fan of having to satisfy both criteria. There just aren’t many young people who have advanced directives…he’ll, I’m in the medical field and I just got around to doing so.

Wow... You really have no idea what the pro-life position is.
I didn’t say the entirety of the position, but specifically used the word “part.”
You disagree that there is segment of the pro life contingent who view abortion as murder because, if left alone, the fetus will (or has potential to at the least) develop into a physiological independent human being?
quote:
And she did not have a DNR/DNI.
I said “if.” OK, so in these instances when there is no advanced directive…who typically makes the decision?

Case of brain-dead pregnant woman kept on life support in Georgia raises tricky questions
Taking this article at face value…I don’t see how even the most staunch pro life advocates wouldn’t find this a but…uncomfortable.
Part of the anti-abortion argument is that, without affirmative steps being taken by the mother, this zygote would develop (or at least has the potential to develop) into a physiologically independent human being. Thus, that action (abortion) is akin to “murder.”
That logical analysis does not apply in this case. If no action is taken by anyone, the mother will pass away as would her fetus. Very tragic indeed. Hypothetically speaking, if the mother’s wishes were to do everything medically necessary to keep her child alive, then I don’t see anything wrong with what’s going on here. However, if the mother had a DNR/DNI order and yet this was still done to her, we are getting into really murky ethical territory.

I've been saying this since I started posting on this board over a decade ago. This board, at its core, is a therapeutic outlet for the "aggrieved" southern white male. Nothing wrong with that, and sorry if any of you snowflakes are offended by that characterization.

Excellent point. Either he’s getting a lot of Bs in AP classes (where a B is worth 4) or he’s getting straight A’s but not taking AP classes. Neither will get you into the elite universities.
