Convince me to become pro-choice. Genocidal edgelords need not apply.
1. Killing innocent human beings is immoral 2. From the moment of conception, the unborn is a human being C. Therefore, abortion is immoral.
This is the entirety of the anti-abortion argument right here. This stuff about choice and rape or incest are just red herrings that distract from the real issue, which is when human life begins and whether or not it acceptable to kill it. Life is scientifically defined as an organism in the state of development, The unborn from the moment of conception is a distinct human organism that is growing. That makes it a human life so unless you have a good reason to support killing innocent human life the argument holds true.
A common objection that I hear from the pro-choice side is that it's just a clump of cells, that until a certain point the unborn isn't conscious and it doesn't have a nervous system so even though it is in fact a human life, it doesn't deserve protection. To this I say that thinking and feeling are actions that human beings can perform but to say those actions are what makes you human and gives you the right to life commits the fallacy of confusing cause and effect. You must be a human before you can act like one, so you must be a human before you can think or feel like one. Even if you don't accept this argument and don't think it has value from the moment of conception this should still be the point that you default to so you don't, in a sense, accidentally kill innocent people since you there is no definitive answer.
>Killing innocent human beings is immoral >implying it has the intellectual capacity of a human >implying killing innocent animals is immoral >implying you don't want a legal means to control the feral negroid population
Pro-lifers are really just weak, uneasy faggots who haven't made a single tough decision in their lives.
Benjamin Phillips
Why does having an intellectual complicity make somebody human?
Sebastian Ramirez
You don't think killing beings that are intellectually inferior to us is wrong if there's a good reason for it, right? (Safety, utility, food, etc.)
Daniel Sanchez
And by that I mean animal beings. Not a random stupid person. I mean semi-sapient beings
Jason Price
Yeah I'm okay with killing animals but the reason for that is because they're not human. The animals intellectually capacity has no bearing on that decision. I'm against the killing of innocent humans because I am human.
Why does having an intellectual complicity make somebody human or worthy of protection?

Brody Lewis
>1. Killing innocent human beings is immoral True >2. From the moment of conception, the unborn is a human being False and irrational. That's never been true in our language, law, history, science, culture or religion.
>C. Therefore, abortion is immoral. Flawed syllogism.
The rights-grabbing woman-hating anti-choicers don't have any rational or legitimate arguments to deny women their natural and inalienable childbirth rights so they rely entirely on weepy, emotional pleas and other fallacies to fool the feeble-minded.
Isaiah Martin
So it would also be ok to kill a 7 month old baby, cause it doesn't have a human intellectual capacity yet?
Ayden Rodriguez
I personally don't think moral behavior necesarily should be legislated. That being said, if a woman aborted my child, I would hate her as though she murdered my living breathing baby. This is why I think people who abort children are terrible people, and should be shamed, but not jailed.
Joshua Cruz
>False and irrational.
Then perhaps you should respond to the argument I gave for why that is true.
John Sullivan
I have a question for those folks that say intellect of intelligence is what makes us human and gives us the right to life. At what level of intellect could a being be called a human? If you don't provide a concrete level of consciousness or level of intellect then you would have to give every animal the right to life since they do have some level of intellect.
Ryder Campbell
okay so why is it that the birth certificate is given when the baby pops out
it should be made upon conception, like after you nut in the bitch make her sign the papers
and if she has a miscarriage charge her with manslaughter
James Perez
>which is when human life begins and whether or not it acceptable to kill it. A fetus is living human tissue like your arm, but it is not a living being, so removing it doesn't "kill" anything.
>Life is scientifically defined as an organism in the state of development, A fetus is not an organism until it is born
>The unborn The unborn what? The unborn teenager? The unborn senior citizen?
>it is in fact a {{{human life}}} Repeating it over and over might be a good propaganda technique for the weak minded, but that doesn't make it true.
> don't think it has value from the moment of conception There is a major difference between suggesting a fetus has value (it does) and insisting that it is alive on its own (it is not).
James Ward
We are all just clumps of cells. Is consciousness a lie? Where do you draw the line? These are nihilistic thoughts which ultimately collapse to reveal that we must save human life.
Jace Lee
A miscarriage is not an active killing. We don't charge the surviving family of a man that died of natural causes in the middle of the night.
Lincoln Young
>A fetus is not an organism until it is born
It is in fact a distinct human organism that is in the state of development. To say it isn't goes against everything we know of biology.
Ryan Perez
>it should be made upon conception, Agreed. It's odd that the anti-choicers celebrate their birthdays instead of Fertilizer Day.
Luis Cook
I am of the opinion that it becomes a full-fledged human when it becomes self aware. For most human babies, this is around 18 months. Abortion before this time should be allowed.
However, this is too difficult a pill for most to swallow, so for a more practical application, abortion should be allowed up until the fetus becomes viable if it were to be born at that moment.
Adrian Morgan
people who are pro-choice but against death penalty or vice versa are retards. I practice death equality and believe in both the death penalty for criminals and abortion.
Samuel Carter
Many animals are self aware. Should they be given the same rights as an adult human?
Aaron Powell
Because it's a lower-order creature. And a fetus doesn't possess the higher-order thinking to know what is happening, or what is being done to it. There's literally nothing wrong with abortion in the first trimester.
Logan Perez
Because generally it benefits everyone to have legalized abortion.
Crime rates decline 15-20 years after abortions are legalized. Welfare usage declines as well. Women that are extremely desperate and would have gotten illegal abortions and potentially died themselves are now able to legally get a medically sound operation.
Also, it's effective democide. >Genocidal edgelords need not apply.
Y'got me.
David Scott
So according to you, if I wanted to take a year old baby and beat it to death with a baseball bat, that should be allowed, because it's "not self aware"
Sebastian Thompson
I'd leave it at first trimester in terms of legislation, but I personally wouldn't
Matthew Garcia
I don't think many one year old toddlers are capable of knowing what is happening what is being done to it. Does that mean we should support infanticide?
Landon Mitchell
>It is in fact a distinct human organism that is in the state of development. Not yet it isn't. By defintion - not the ones you make, but the reals the rest of us use - an organism is: "Any living individual, whether plant or animal, considered as a whole."
A woman is literally fabricating the fetus in her womb with her own oxygen, blood, proteins sugars, etc.
The fetus has zero self-sustaining processes until it is ready to be born.
Caleb Thomas
The fetus is not a body part. It has distinct human DNA that is completely different than the mother.
Logan Morgan
Fetus's are viable outside the womb at about 25 weeks.
Kayden Baker
Blacks are far more likely to have abortions than whites.
Therefore. Pro-choice = less niggers.
Boom.

Blake Gomez
>It has distinct human DNA that is completely different than the mother. The fetus carries the woman's maternal DNA. How could you not know that?
Jonathan Taylor
If it was your own spawn, and the other person who made it (father or mother) approved, yes.
Jonathan Taylor
Are you implying that the unborn doesn't have its own distinct DNA?
Cooper Scott
Hmmm. Perhaps we should take things a bit further?
Human babies/children can be aborted until they pass an intelligence test that no other animal can pass.
Austin Perez
You became human at birth when the act of birth squished your brain triggering the release of dmt in your pineal gland, bringing self awareness into play. Prior to that, neither of us can argue anything but conjecture at this point.
Connor Cooper
Pro life is better, when women realize their countless pre-marital sex may have long lasting consequences they'll stop whoring around, or they'll go to a black market abortion clinic and die, either way is good.
trouble is with niggers, niggers usually abort in the high two digits, by making abortion illegal they will have either no choice but to continue and you end up with single nigger mother babies that end up even mentally broken then your usual nigger can be, resulting in more crime, more gibs, more welfare, and more police good work and then rioting, or they'll abort them in a black market clinic and likely die.

No argument necessary. We don't need to defend life at birth because that's the point it's always been and always will be.

Being pro choice gives you the legal right to kill you unborn child, if you choose to. Being pro-life doesnt.
Being pro choice doesnt mean you have to kill any of your children.

Alexander Ramirez

You literally cannot deny that the moment a zygote is formed, it has a unique human genetic code separate from the mom or dad.
This makes it an individual human but just dependent on the mother for life.
>inb4 but dat means duh mutha can kill it!
A baby is 100% dependent on its parents for life too. Do you want post-birth abortion?
Andrew Myers
I could get murdered, i cannot get aborted.
Jordan King
The most basic definition of life comes with two requirements: 1. There must be a clear barrier that separates the organism from it and its environment (like skin, or a cell wall) 2. The organism must have the ability to self-repair.
With these, we can see a virus is not living as it is inert until it enters a cell. An egg and sperm are also not living because they lack the required mechanism to maintain themselves. But once the two combine, they have the ability to replicate.
Aside: the first neuron develops sometime before the 16th day, as that is when the neural plate is formed and the fetus begins movement.
James Ramirez
not extreme, because it's what he argued for. Anti-abortionists see abortion (correctly) as premeditated murder. So when people say "I do it because freedom!" then it's reasonable for them to follow that thread.
Why are moral subjectivists so SHIT at recognizing other peoples' morals don't match their own?
Christopher Roberts
Did it make it out of Wombland? If not, just another meat sack
Adam Smith
Just because something is immoral doesn't mean it should categorically never happen. The world if full of grey areas and competing moral obligations.
Abortion represents a conflict of rights. The mother's right to integrity and autonomy vs the fetus's right to life. As a society, we determined that the rights of a fully formed human trump those of a fetus.
As an added bonus, abortion reduces the rate at which children are being born into poverty. And most of the babies that get aborted are niggers.

A fetus can absolutely be considered alive, since it can also be considered dead. A chicken egg can also be considered alive(if a chicken could hatch as long as it it bred properly), or dead(if it couldnt hatch no matter what).

Bentley Barnes
Pro-life doesn't make sense because we frequently kill animals far more intelligent than the fetuses we abort.
So, by being pro-life you are saying there is something special about humans regardless of how intelligent they are. That's an implicit assumption of the OP image. But what separates humans is supposedly their superior intelligence. This argument can only be logically advanced by the le soul meme.
To be consistent, if you object to an abortion at X time, you should also object to the suffering/killing/eating/exploiting of animals who have an equivalent intelligence to the average human at X time. However, most have no problem killing adult pigs which are as intelligent as toddlers.
The only non-religious arguments I've seen advanced to attempt to counter these are >but the human has potential The fact that they will grow into a highly intelligent being is irrelevant, they won't if you abort it. Potential is squandered every single day and we don't make it a crime. It's not hard to make another fetus. What's hard is making another intelligent, contributing adult. >but we are humans and only have to look out for humans This ignores that a "species" is a relatively arbitrary compatibility-based grouping of different organisms, and that many definitions have been advanced for the distinction. There's no point at which you pinpoint when species diverges except what arbitrary limits we impose to help our category autism. You share a common ancestor with pigs, dogs, and every living organism on the planet. They are literally on your family tree if you trace them back far enough. When did they stop being part of the in-group you have to arbitrarily care about to the exclusion of all others?
Also, the only real threats to humans are humans and microscopic pathogens. Nor does anybody really care about humans as a species at all (see: Cred Forums).
You should look up the philosophy of Peter Singer if you want to be enlightened by your own intelligence like me.

The fetus is not self-sustaining. It cannot live disconnected from the umbilical cord or outside its amniotic sac until it is viable (i.e. ready to be born).
>An egg and sperm are also not living They are living cells, living human tissue.
Xavier Gutierrez
There's also a lot of shit you're leaving out, with regards to the adult influences you had in your life other than your mother. You also likely grew up extremely introverted (and unattractive and out of shape) and was a virgin, not by choice, but by circumstance.
Your "ideals" are just a defense mechanism to avoid reflecting on the fact that youre incapable of getting girls/women to want to fuck you.

Is there any real difference between a baby the day before its delivered and the day its born? The month before? Three months? While less developed its still a young human being with all the potential to live a life as full and as real or meaningful as you, I, or anyone.
Abortion advocates have to do elaborate illogical mental gymnastics to support their loophole crutch that a baby is not human until it comes out of a vagina.
Dominic Turner
So we are all just mitochondria? Or a fetus is just mitochondria?
We don't kill other humans for the same reason we don't eat them. It's because if we killed and ate other humans around us we would never be able to trust one another when hungry and then you can say goodbye to society.

>and a brain dead person wouldn't be human. A brain dead human isn't a person, and they are less worth than a functioning dog, cat or pig. They have no capacity for anything that makes humans great on their own, all they can do is be an object for other people to irrationally project their feelings onto.

You might one of those people not so good at picking up clues, but you should probably ask yourself where they get the "born" part of stillborn. and why a birth certificate is a certificate of "live" birth.

>Pro-Choice Argument #1: A fetus isn’t a life. It’s just a blob of tissue, a parasite, etc.
If a single celled organism were discovered on another planet the entire scientific community would hail it as extraterrestrial life, but if it’s a multi-celled organism inside one human being with the sole purpose of producing another human being… it’s not life?
>Pro-Choice Argument #2: Ok, well it’s life but it’s not VIABLE life as it cannot survive without the support of its host.
Infants, toddlers, and many elderly & infirmed cannot survive without the physical support of others as well. By this logic, all should be legal to kill.
>Pro-Choice Argument #3: Bodily autonomy! You/government have no right to tell someone what they can/can’t do with their own bodies!
Is that so? Then why can’t I sell my organs? Engage in prostitution? Procure any and all illicit substances for my own personal use?
>Pro-Choice Argument #4: The unborn are not a protected class!
Then why do we charge someone who beats a pregnant woman and causes her to miscarry with homicide?
>Pro-Choice Argument #5: It's not even human!
Really? Does it have dog DNA?
>Pro-Choice Argument #6: It can't even think yet so it's ok.
Is murdering comatose patients ok? Would you get away with it?
Would you say killing a baby is wrong? Everyone would think killing a baby is wrong. Is it okay to kill that same baby next week? No we still know that it is wrong. Is it okay to kill that same baby two weeks ago? No.
Morals are absolute. Time and location do not change moral relevance. It is wrong to kill a person in the future, it is wrong to kill them now, and it is wrong to kill them in the past.
Abortion as a moral dilemna has been solved for so long. There is nothing to debate. Abortion is murder, of a person. It is even more morally reprehensible because the person has definitely done no wrong. It is even more morally reprehensible because the person has no means of defense.
Josiah Wright
But that is not self sustaining, that is subsisting off the environment around you. I am asking you to follow your own definition and life. The fetus squires nutrition from its environment, the womb, just as we do from ours, supermarkets, it not being able to shop does not make it any less alive. Remember that you take away the mother from a new born and it will die just as quickly.

>You must be a human before you can act like one, so you must be a human before you can think or feel like one. You must be a person before you can act like one. A blastocyst doesn't act like a person. It doesn't do so because it doesn't have memories, a personality or self-awareness. It's literally not a person.

Being just living cells isn't all there is to it.
Sperm if left alone in the womb will die. So will an egg cell.
But at the point of conecption a new cell is born with a unique human DNA. This cell from this point on is the body of a unique person.
What sets this cell apart from the others is its ability to grow up into another member of your species which, if you are a sane individual, you're not supposed to kill.

I hope you can see that it would be absurd if everyone had to prove that their actions are not immoral according to god-knows-whose standards every time they're about to perform some action. Since you're the one seeking to forbid certain acts, the burden of proof is on you. Provide evidence that a blastocyst is self-aware. (Protip: you can't, because a blastocyst doesn't demonstrate any behaviors associated with self-awareness and doesn't have the necessary wetware for self-awareness to arise).

You need to understand that you're basing your philosophy on complete bullshit. The wriggling fetus is a human baby. It's alive. It's aware of its surroundings. It can enjoy music. It can follow lights shined on the mother's stomach. It recognizes dog barks, the mother's voice, the father's voice, and even has the mother's fucking accent when it first cries. You can scream "MEATSACK!! MEATSACK!!! MEATSACK!!!" all you want, but those words have no fucking meaning in THIS reality -- just the one you built up in your head.
Eli Perry

Wyatt Taylor
No, I didn't went extreme your comparison just makes no sense. You are not contesting the premise that abortions are the same as murder at all, you are simply saying that people should be feel to do it. Therefore I'm comparing that kind of a murder to a regular kind of a murder. What's extreme about that???
And your comparison still makes no sense because you are talking about different governments with different laws so you're just dodging the issue. My comparison is about two different forms of murder within the same society and its laws.

Early pregnancy failure (also known as blighted ovum or anembryonic gestation) is a common cause of miscarriage. It happens when a fertilized egg implants in the uterus but the resulting embryo either stops developing very early or doesn't form at all.

>So when they're like 4 years old then? You're ok with infanticide?
4 years olds are already forming a personality and showing signs of self-awareness. The person begins to form as soon as a baby is born and perhaps even earlier, but clearly not at the blastocyst stage.
Andrew Clark
Thank you
Carson Clark
Is a person self-aware as soon as it's born? Before? Sometime after? Unless a human develops sentience at the exact moment it is born, your argument is flawed.
Angel Garcia
Leeching off its mother and lacking sapience or even more than the faintest sentience, it is no different from a tapeworm. If the parents don't think they can handle the economic, emotional and physical stress of having a child, they'll just become a precarious household for the child-to-be. They should be allowed to opt out until they are absolutely sure.
>You must be a human before you can act like one, so you must be a human before you can think or feel like one What? No. That's literally backwards reasoning, unless your only qualifier for "human" is "of the homo sapiens species". What we value of ourselves, what validates the idea of Human Rights, is the learned behaviors and capacity for higher reasoning that characterizes us. Fetuses, and indeed newborn babies, do not display such traits: they haven't had the chance to develop or exercise them. Are you the kind who will never accept the possibility that AGI can be people with entitlement to the same rights as humans?
Connor Morgan
It wouldn't die on its own. It doesn't remove itself from the uterus on its own, that's what murderers do to it.
But if you really want to complicate things. If it's in the uterus you'd say it's not on its own right? So can you remove it from the uterus so it could be "on its own" without killing it first?

There is no logical and rational argument to be pro-abortion. That's the conclusion you can take away from this thread and the conclusion I took away after trying to research and defend both sides. As long as you leave religion out of it, because the pro-choice side is always waiting for an opportunity to go on some tangent.
Interestingly enough, the only good pro-abortion argument is to admit that it is an immoral thing to do, but claim that it betters our society to have the less of two evils in place. Which is the "edgy" argument which you will never hear from kumbayah leftists anyways.
Zachary Hill
because miscarriages aren't murder. Abortion is.
Do you know the difference between "dying by accident/natural causes" and "being murdered"? Most legal systems do. Sure, it doesn't make a huge difference to the dead, but it's the survivors that are dealt with.

No it isn't. I don't have to determine when exactly it begins because the burden of proof is on you to show that it has begun if you want to claim that my actions are immoral because I'm killing a person.
Noah King
Pro-livers who believe that if only people didn't abort their kids everyone would live happily ever after are just as retarded as libs who believe communism will work if only we do it right this time. Real life isn't that nice. There are situations where aborting the kid is better for the kid and the mother. Bringing a child into a family that doesn't want it is stupid. Better to just get rid of it. Does having abortions when you could have just used a condom make you a despicable person? Yes. Should we be legislating this kind of thing? No.

Bentley Price
Do you really need convincing if you ask people for it? Or do you just want a cnfirmation of your beliefs?
I am pro-choice simply because sometimes letting the term go interrupted puts life of both mother and the fetus in grave danger. Sometimes people don't want or are incapable of raising children and by going with it anyway they can just turn both theirs and the kid's life into nightmare.
I think it's more moral to end it early, when it is still just a fleshy growth rather than conscious, sentient being (even if with potential to develop into one) when you are pretty sure it won't work out than to let it go on on the basis of principle supposedly protecting life and then witness death or suffering because of it.
Letting people get an abortion whenever they want is idiocy, having irresponsible sluts use it as an alternative to anticonception measures is disgusting - but there are cases where I think it'd be for the best.
>You must be a human before you can act like one, so you must be a human before you can think or feel like one. Yes, fetus can become a human, can feel and think - there is a potential for that. But when it is still jsut a bunch of cells it's not a human yet and shouldn't be treated as one when its continued existence is likely to end either in death or in other grave problems for it, its parents and the society (abandoned children etc).
Austin Green
>You're not answering the question. Why does self awareness matter?
Well, why does anything matter? It's irrelevant. If you don't want to accept it as a premise, you don't have to, just like I don't have to accept the premise that any bunch of cells with human DNA is sacred. The difference is that at least my reasoning is consistent, while you'll have a hard time explaining why a blastocyst is fundamentally different from a blow-off arm.
William Wilson
so cancer cells have rights too then huh
Samuel Johnson
>killing human beings is wrong
I object to this. I would instead say killing sapient beings is wrong. I don't care if it has human DNA, if it doesn't have hopes dreams and a personality then it's not a person and I'm not overly concerned about killing it if it suits the needs of real people.
Of course, if you believe in a soul or whatever that pops into existence at the moment of conception, then fair enough, that's on you, but not everyone does and if you have separation of church and state then the government can't ban things for theological reasons either.

You have no rational/scientific way to determine when consciousness enters the body. Any moment you determine as being the moment a human becomes human is completely random and subjective.
Aaron Mitchell
Of course not. Also infants gain conciousness before birth.
But there is an enormous difference between ending a person and stopping one from coming into existence.
Sebastian Hill
Only the second is justifiable, in the event that the mother will die before they fetus comes to term, as you will have two dead humans instead of one.
The baby didn't rape the mother, so why should it be punished. Imagine for a second that you or you loved one happened to be a child born of rape. Would you still wish that they got aborted? Probably not, unless you are suicidal. I sure as hell know a few people that were born from such cases and they still wish to live.
Owen Gutierrez
I don't want to kill anyone lol. All I did was give an example of how everyone kept escalating things. Seems I've struck a few nerves. And alright, come find me and kill me
Chase Powell
A bunch of human skin cells living in a petri dish in a lab somewhere are also living organisms with unique human DNA. They are undoubtedly human, but that doesn't make them persons.
Ryan Jones
yeah i can see that, you're right.
Jordan Edwards
You're like an MPAA exec trying to argue against people pirating. You are never going to stop it. And there is no loss to society by killing the kids.
Brody Ortiz
We know it's after first trimester. So just limit abortion to that period.
Bentley Green
>why is killing innocent human beings immoral? If you've gone this philosophically off the deep end, you shouldn't even be arguing anything ever.
Fuck, you're gotten too close to the vortex and found yourself sucked right in.
Time for you to philosophically hit the fucking reset button, and start over with something more akin to "why do we have morals?" and work from there -- then you'll see, quickly, how stupid you sound.
Hunter Ross
Your example is retarded and you are retarded.
You are literally saying you are ok with a certain type of murder. Somehow wondering about your stance on murder in general instead of the specific case of abortion is the same as starting to talk about WMDs in that grease filled butter brain of yours.
Aaron Flores
But it is not by law. You'd get arrested for it so obviously you can't murder someone on the grounds of lacking those traits.
You can put him in this great institution called an orphanage. You don't have to take care of him so you win.
Landon Peterson
yes it is a HUMAN skin, not dog skin, or pig skin, or rat skin. It is human, just not a whole one.
Andrew Barnes
>infants gain consciousness after birth Nope. They are awake and sleep at intervals during pregnancy. Please do more research.
Adam Robinson
Are you retarded? Of course I don't wish they were aborted. But if they had always been aborted I wouldn't care. This is like arguing that my parents should have had more kids because "would you have wanted your parents not to have your sister?"
Bentley Allen
For people with empathy and humanity, it is obvious that is wrong to kill people, For evil and inhumane people like yourself, it seems you struggle without it clearly defined
Jayden Russell
>You have no rational/scientific way to determine when consciousness enters the body.
That's actually your problem, not his. Burden of proof is on you to demonstrate that someone aborting a fetus at some arbitrary stage is aborting a sentient being if you want to prevent them from doing so on the grounds that they are terminating a sentient person.
Chase King
1. Bodily autonomy is the standard upon which we base our health laws. 2. Abortion is a medical operation under those health laws. C. Abortion should be allowed.
Wyatt Russell
Others went from killing other people who made it out of wombland. I gave another, more extreme example to show people the stupidity of escalating to extremes. My stance is No murder at all, but I know People will do whatever. You guys keep trying to escalate others opinions into genocide rants. Loving this thread desu senpai
Jaxson Hill
How can we possibly know that? The neural tubes already closed and the heart started beating long before that. We know absolutely nothing about the nature of consciousness.
Cooper Butler
I literally said the opposite of what you thought I said.
Chase Allen
Sentience doesn't develop until around 5 months. Is a 3 month old baby a person?
Hudson Powell
You're not even making sense. People with humanity and empathy, like myself, haven't rationalized the murder of unborn children.
You've rationalized your humanity and empathy away on the altar of your party line or women's rights or some bullshit.
You just tried some serious "Black is white and white is black" bullshit there.
