Overpopulation is a myth.
Clueless ^^ . So how many humans can humanity sustainably exist within our set of operating systems?

Perhaps your one of those religous nutters who believe humans are Gods greatest gift Universe ergo there is no limits to human proliferation for any set of operating systems? 

Eb.....Ar you claiming your religous{?} fundamentalism morality is superiors to a pregnant womans morality and those she seeks out for advice
Tri....Yes.
Clueless ^^  father superior has spoken to his flock of seagulls, uhh, I mean Parrots.

GParrot still has not addressed that questioned posed to him.  So now we have two Why's{?} for GP.

When push comes to shove, an abortion is an abortion and a constitution is a pile of old paper.
I am just saying it's completely arbitrary when the Constitution is cited as a justification for the expansion of government powers in the same argument to limit government power. It makes the purpose of the Constitution meaningless.

If pregnancy, childbirth, and all their related impacts was just as intrusive as wearing a peace of cloth over your face in a supermarket, or was limited to a minute  risk of a significant adverse reaction, and likely only a few days of having an arm ache - i’d be anti abortion.

Likewise, if wearing a mask or being vaccinated required at least 9 months of substantive health issues, cost, health risk, and a plethora of financial, health, career or other issues; I’d be anti-mask and anti-vaccine mandate too.

But they’re not; they’re not even close to being on the same continent as the same ballpark.


The bottom line is simple:

No Woman should be forced by the government to go through all of the varied and significant consequences of pregnancy and childbirth - at any point - if they don’t want to.

Whether or not you consider a fetus a person, or whatever set of complete or incomplete rights you feel it has, if the continued life of an individual - any individual - is only possible through major, sustained and substantial impact to another person, that other person must consent to it. 

That’s a blanket statement in almost total support of abortion for any reason prior to just shy of the third trimester - where it is not possible for a fetus to possibly survive outside the mother.

If a woman does not consent to major abominable surgery, or all the related issues of childbirth after this point in order to be able to remove the unborn child without killing it; I also think she shouldn’t be forced into it that either; however the reality there is that it rarely happens other than in instances were there is genuine medical need, or in cases where the unborn child isn’t viable.


This is the real crux: all of us should be able to consent to having likely, substantial and life altering health impacts - visited upon us without our consent; preventing such life altering health impacts is part of what healthcare is. Right now, the only way of doing that is through abortion. 

When artificial wombs, and transporters allow a fetus to be unobtrusively beamed out of a pregnant woman’s body; or if allowing the unborn child to live is as physically or emotionally intrusive as wearing a mask; or as impactful as a safe vaccine; then I would be happy to reassess my position; but it really isn’t.

If only I had written a detailed rebuttal to this very point in the first three paragraphs of my response....

If pregnancy, childbirth, and all their related impacts was just as intrusive as wearing a peace of cloth over your face in a supermarket, or was limited to a minute risk of a significant adverse reaction, and likely only a few days of having an arm ache - i’d be anti abortion.

If you paid attention to what I said; I’m pointing out the key difference between requiring vaccinations in order to go to restaurants or work in certain professions (rather than being legally forced to be vaccinated with no legal avenue to decline); and being forced to remain pregnant; is that one has almost no meaningful financial or health impact; the other has major financial, health and life impacts.

It’s what makes them very different things.

You don’t seem to be arguing or contesting that, but randomly changing the subject to some completely unrelated, nonsequitor which doesn’t seem to make any sense.

According to who? Your grand poohbah in Washington DC? How about you tell Washington DC to fuckoff and get with the program.

that one has almost no meaningful financial or health impact; the other has major financial, health and life impacts.

My monumental gains in my hedge funds due to the Washington DC lockdowns and other mandates says different.

Though I pity the lesser savvy that can't work the hedge fund/DC mandates game as "investors" like Soros can. Survival of the fittest and all.

The only non-sense is trumpeteer virtual rape of pregnant woman, i.e. without her consent trumpteers sticking their friggin nose into the pregnant wombs vagina and womb business. Sick-n-head immoral behaviour. Simple concept to grasp, STOP the virtual rape of pregnant women.

Pregnant woman having abortion is totally irrelevant to coVid2/19.  More trumpeteer false narrative to bend truth every way except absolute truth.

When you going to answer the questions I posed to you GP?  Apparrently your seemingly superior morality is above my line of inquiry about your trumpeteer religous practice of virtual rape of pregnant women, without their consent. Sad :--( if  not just plain sick-n-head.

That is because trumpeteers follow in their fathers footsteps...LINK...."Trump did not take questions, and instead rambled for the better part of 50 minutes, shushing reporters for attempting to ask questions about Floyd and racism in America."...

And below GP does  not take questions about his apparrent moral superiority over pregnant women.

GP.....The same clause that guarantees "abortion rights" should also make it unconstitutional for the government to facilitate the destruction of fetal life.
#23 and #29..." Why GP? Ar you claiming your religous{?} fundamentalism morality is superiors to a pregnant womans morality and those she seeks out for advice? "....

Zed,

1} all pushing-outward { expansive } phenomena of Universe is resultant of pulling-inward { contractive } phenomena ex womb muscles contract and fetus/baby is pushed out,

2} privacy rights is human conception  --- not physical egg conception{ sperm attracted to egg   --- is resultant of humans consideration of fairness for the individual human,

3} human conceptioning process is resultant of matter { fermions } --and bosonic forces---  collapsing/coalescing  via contractive pulling-inward phenomena, ex stars collapse via Gravity (  ) and as result of this pulling-inward, stars radiate { push/expand } back outward,

4} the fertized egg{ physical conception } in-vaginates { gastrulation forms 3 germ layers  };

..." Just after fertilization the zygote (fertilized egg) undergoes cleavage (mitotic cell divisions) and becomes subdivided into smaller cells - the gross arrangement of cells differs greatly among vertebrates, depending on the amount of yolk in the egg:
Holoblastic cleavage occurs when the cleavage furrows pass through the entire egg

• cleavage can either be equal, where the resulting cells contain the same amount of yolk, or unequal, in which some cells contain more yolk than others:  
equal cleavage occurs in microlecithal eggs
- unequal cleavage occurs in mesolecithal eggs
• cleavage results in the formation of a ball of cells (blastomeres) surrounding an internal cavity (blastocoel)

Meroblastic cleavage occurs more in macrolecithal eggs
• cleavage takes place only in a disk at the animal pole
• the cleavage furrows do not extend into the yolk
• results in the formation of the blastodisk that lies on the top of the yolk

Gastrulation is characterized by cell movement and reorganization within the embryo (morphogenetic movements) to the interior of the embryo, forming three primary germ layers: ectoderm, mesoderm, and endoderm.
The cells migrate inward at the blastopore, which forms, or is close to, the location of the anus in the adult
• the ectoderm forms the outer tube of the embryo
• the endoderm is an inner tube that forms the alimentary canal and all its derivative organs
• the mesoderm lies between these two layers.

At the end of gastrulation, the embryo is bilaterally symmetrical, with three discrete cell layers, and rudiments of the notochord and neural tube.
This blastopore-to-anus developmental pathway is found in Chordata, Hemichordata, Echinodermata (starfish, sea urchins, sea cucumbers, etc.), uniting these groups into a monophyletic group called the Deuterostomes. The plesiomorphic condition, found in the Protostomes, is for the blastopore to become the mouth."

FDA and CDC is just a worthless can of worms from your viewpoint GP?

Supreme courts descission for a pregnant womans right to privacy, unless she gives consent ie. trumpeteers and other religious nutters need to STOP the virtual rape of pregnant women.

Will currrent supreme fed court uphold a pregnant womans right to privacy?  Lets see now, two or three appointed by the immoral, racists, bigoted, sexist trump who stated that a man can just grab a strange woman by the crotch and they like it.

So, were back to GP ---and flock of trumpeteers--- and his and others, seeming moral superiority pregnant woman.

It's worth noting that most of Europe took a look at the CDC recommendations and promptly told them to fuck off, especially with the recommendations for school kids.

Europe isn't under a 24/7 gaslight from state media, and the American teacher's unions have no interest in influencing European politics.

You clearly have the time and energy; given the extent, timing and inevitability of your constant replies.

I think the issue you lack is one of capacity.

I base this one the grounds that were I wrong and if you were right, it would take a mere paragraph or two to destroy my point; whilst you have put ten times as much energy and time into trying to avoid doing that.

I mean - I did just that with my point about vaccines vs abortions - and it’s obviously eating you up inside that you have no ability to answer.



Instead of actually paying any attention to anything I’m saying; you’re just trying to change the subject to that of your meme du jour: in this case “Men in Washington DC bad!” It will probably be something else next week. 

I mean, we both know that this completely and utterly irrelevant to anything that I said in any way shape or form; it’s just an obvious attempt to ignore the point and detail the conversation.


Which kinda draws me back to the original point, all your time and energy is comprehensively focused on avoiding a conversation, derailing discussion, and ignoring conflicting points of view. Which is odd for a long standing member of debate site, don’t you think?

Of course; you’re likely not going to reply to any of this, instead I’m fairly sure you will reply with the same or similar nonsense you’ve already made, as you have nothing else.

I'm absolutely clear about both. Government doesn't know best. For either case.



Try to actually read those articles and note the similarities.

 “Men in Washington DC bad!” 

Alot of them objectively are. They certainly are not all good, all wise, all knowing like the wizards of your Oz.

Also, right to privacy should certainly extend to vaccination mandates.

Trumpets brain is broken and apparrently yours is also GP.

Your mixing oranges avacodoes i.e. not even close to a fair/just comparsion.  Of course that is nothing new for a trumpeteer. They typcially commit 100 immoral acts before breakfest is how the old saying goes

I’m so close to being able to pull you into an actual discussion rather than you just yelling unrelated statements at me. 

I will point out that just yelling what you think, does not, in any way shape or form, have any bearing, impact or pose as a rebuttal or attack on anything I just said.


Perhaps you’re out of practice; with all the meme throwing and habitual derailing; let me walk you through how to do this:

First, you take what I said; if you pay attention what I did is walk through why one thing is completely different from another; and what helps mitigate the issues one vs the other.

Second, you use logic and reason to justify why you think that approach is wrong; inconsistent, contradictory or hypocritical.

Third - and I cannot stress this enough - try your hardest not to try skip points one and two, deflect, change the subject or subtly ignore everything I said in order to focus on cheap troll points that show your worldview is as fragile as your masculinity.

President Trumpet agreed and to keep from loosing his 2nd term in instigated a USA insurrection campaign of immoral lies,  STOP THE STEAL!

STOP the the Virtual Rape of pregnant women GP.  Is the Supreme court all good, wise, all knowing?

We have one set of judges that protect the USA rights of pregnant woman to privacy to do what she believes is in her ---independent adult individual breathing in her oxygen on her own { ins-spirited inahlations }.

Ahh so close... and we’re back to deflection...


Recall however, that a bulk of my previous posts, that you have done your best to ignore, go to substantial detail to explain exactly how and why these are two very different things; even though there may be similarities.

Those posts pretty broadly deal with what your saying; once you stop pretending they don’t exist.


I can make this pretty simple to illustrate the difference - please show me any US or Canadian law or enforceable rules at a federal, state or local level that legally forces any individual to put a needle in their arm for a vaccination even if they chose not to out of personal choice.

That’s GP in a nutshell. He’d rather report his fellow debaters as bullies than actually think up a cogent defense for the lies he tells. His mission is the 180 degree opposite of of this sites: rather than seeking truth thru dialogue and reasoned argument, GP seeks to broadcast lies without any challenge or effort on his part. He just wants to misinform, get his friends to like his falsehoods and mock all honest effort.  I wish he’d relocate to parler which site was designed for weak unthinking followers like GP.

Stop harassing me Oro. You can find other people to play personal ad-hom battles with, you most certainly don't need me. This is a debate site not a hen coop.

Reporting your post for harassment.

You have been warned multiple times to stop personally attacking people on this site, yet you continue to do so, to the detriment of everyone here.
And you already know when a person has asked you to stop harassing and you continue anyway, it's a bannable offense.
If you don't like the rules you can leave the site.

There's plenty of educated people with views similar to yours on this site that don't regularly sling ad-homs while discussing ideas, so don't think for a moment that I need anything from you but your absence.

The strategy is pretty effective; and fascinating

I raised key issues, described why I think I’m right, presented an argument; while most people tend to try and address the point - although many may do it badly - the approach taken seems to be, as I explained, to not answer the point being raised by simply divert the topic to an area of familiar comfort.

IE: shift to talk about government being untrustworthy, argue with the bold pretence that this is what the argument is actually about, rather than what I’m actually talking about which is whether two actions are comparable or one action can be supported when one cannot.

What’s tricky about this form of argument, is that it’s easy to get sucked in; because there’s always a compulsion to answer points raised. When you do that, you can then drive the discussion off the rails and away from the position of strength.

If you can find someone who can get sucked in, all you have to do is maintain that pretence and you can continually shift the conversation back to that point of comfort - goading the other person into constantly bashing their heads against that same pretence, whilst making no effort to respond to anything they’ve actually said.

I mean; how can you argue against someone who is not acknowledging you said anything - or worse - who continually pretends as if you said something completely different from what you did?

I want to actually have a discussion on the merits; and have been doing this long enough to understand that when confronted with this sort of diversionary tactic you have to continually draw the conversation back to what is being avoided, reject the pretence, and call out the failure to address the point.

One of the strategies I have for this type of technique is that once you’ve established the pattern;  post your own expectation of how they’re going to divert the conversation next; I did it a few posts ago.

It undermines their ability to use the same strategy again; and forces them back into an area of discomfort; and from there as you can see, forcing them off that pretence makes their approach rapidly go off the rails.


I mean, the new pretence adopted; that constantly pointing out that the point has been ignored and the subject has been changed and to suggest that the other person should defend their claims is somehow Harrassment, is obviously patently absurd ; but in itself is just another way to change the subject in a way that derails the conversation - which could well be the intent.

Unfortunately there’s only one practical way of responding to that new pretence without achieving the goal of driving the conversation into a position of strength that will cede control back to allow the other person to control the course of the conversation.


I’m more interested in having someone rebuttal or attack my claims than trying to attack this new pretence tbh; though it’s always interesting figuring out different ways to attack silly rhetorical strategies like that  :)

Texas is slowly trying to draw away the liberals from coming into the state

Serious note; banning abortion is not the proper way to go about abortion. A person has the right to their own bodies and what they do and to outlaw that is pretty unconstitutional from the way I see it. In my point of view, abortions should be completely privatized. I do not want to pay tax dollars for something that will raise taxes and contribute to something I don't support. Private companies should do as such, as most healthcare is.

on a planet that is overpopulated { 8 billiion + }
Who says, with any credibility, at 8B, the Earth is overpopulated? Nonsense. We don't have a population issue. Our problem is resource distribution, mostly limited by greed. For most of our essential resources, this is the real problem. Just two examples:

1. Almost yearly, the lower Mississippi valley of the U.S. experiences flooding at great annual expense. Why haven't we constructed aqueducts from the confluence of the Mississippi and Missouri to the southwest, where water is in limited supply. That cost is dwarfed by the flood mitigation.

2. There are many places in the world where fresh water is in limited supply. Desalinization is now a very cheap process, yet we avoid doing it, jealous of the cost of fresh water - a greedy consequence of refusing to apply a simple technology.
