The human dignity of the fetus. It is a separate organism with its own DNA and biological processes that make it alive and different from the mother even if for a temporary period of time it depends on the mother for life.
>but its not conscious
Should we go around killing comatose people? Should we go around killing people with severe brain deformities that render them non-conscious in the way we are? Should we go around murdering new borns since arguably they do not experience the same levels of consciousness as us? At what level of consciousness is it morally wrong to harm things since arguably many living things are conscious. Possibly insects have consciousness on a very low level.

Once again, entirely depends on the context. In an absolute sense, sure. In a localized sense, why not?

>>18482224
What you're doing is entierly meaningless. Ethics begins with the assumption that there is a morality "out there" to be known, and by finding out what it is, we can model what kinds of actions are acceptable or non-acceptable in it via ethical systems in the same way that physics assumes there are physical laws "out there" and that we can theorize about them and make mathematical models.
>>
>>18482219
>Should we go around killing comatose people?
There are procedures and legal systems in place that allow families to make the decision to "pull the plug"
>Should we go around murdering new borns since arguably they do not experience the same levels of consciousness as us?
No because they are conscious, I would even concede that at a certain point in development an unborn child becomes conscious. But a zygote is certainly not a conscious being.
>At what level of consciousness is it morally wrong to harm things since arguably many living things are conscious
There is a general agreement of what level it is okay for. Like vegetative patients or fetuses early in development.

Your fatal mistake is in thinking there is a single, absolute ethics. That's what moral pluralism or relativism basically refutes.
Define the framework and ground rules first in which we argue about specific ethical principles, and then we can do such. Until then, the facts are simple: we can't argue about shit
>>
>>18482238
> >>18482238

Just because something is legal does not make it morally correct. Lex iniusta non est lex.

>No because they are conscious, I would even concede that at a certain point in development an unborn child becomes conscious. But a zygote is certainly not a conscious being.
Well you only think that because you're a physicalist about consciousness. But even if you are correct, and indeed maybe you are, it doesn't solve the issue. It makes consciousness an arbitrary factor in determining what is right and what is wrong. If any being, even an insect, could expereince even the slightest levels of pain and suffering, is it morally wrong to kill them? Cows seems pretty aware. Should we kill cows. Who are you to say they aren't conscious? We can't even measure consciousness reliably, we can only make inferences. Also why does suffering make something bad in the first place? Arguably suffering can be good. How and why would you conclude suffering = bad unless you have a moral framework that assumes suffering is bad and we ought not to make things suffer? It doesn't automatically follow that just because something suffers that that suffering is bad.

Why assume any differently? Naively it seems like a pretty good assumption to make.
>Define the framework and ground rules first in which we argue about specific ethical principles, and then we can do such. Until then, the facts are simple: we can't argue about shit
But you're self refuting. You would have to accept the framework in the first place to argue about it. If we can't agree on some first principles then we cannot speak. This is basic Aristotelian epistemology.
>>
>>18482262
>Just because something is legal does not make it morally correct
But it is consistent with the belief that abortion is okay.

>If any being...
A lot of animals do show evidence of higher levels of consciousness and because of that I do believe that factory farming is a cruel thing. Bugs are clearly more like robots.

>We can't even measure consciousness, we can only make inferences.
We don't have to have an exact quantifiable number to make judgements.

>Arguably suffering can be good
Huh?

>>18482264

No because the point of bringing that up was to try and expose a contradiction in my worldview but my response shows that no such contradiction exists.
>>
>>18482266
>Why assume any differently? Naively it seems like a pretty good assumption to make.
Naively yes, until you grow up and realise not just society's ethics change, but your own as well. Literally all evidence points to ethics not being a monolith.
The closest thing we can get to ethics is super base instincts, but even then there's exceptions due to spirituality and religiosity.
>But you're self refuting. You would have to accept the framework in the first place to argue about it.
I don't mind accepting any framework you propose if we're purely arguing about the correct ethics in that framework. What I reject is that there's a single "true" framework.
>>
>>18482281
>But it is consistent with the belief that abortion is okay.
How?

>A lot of animals do show evidence of higher levels of consciousness and because of that I do believe that factory farming is a cruel thing.
What if we killed them instantly? Isn't this why there are both laws and ethical codes that advocate the humane treatment of animals, especially livestock?

>We don't have to have an exact quantifiable number to make judgements.
Correct. So how do you know that insects aren't conscious? I'm not saying they are but it is plausible they are. There's no scientific agreement on this. At what point of consciousness do we stop killing?

>Huh?
Just because something is does not mean it ought to be. Just because something suffers does not mean it ought to or ought not to suffer. You cannot conclude moral statements from things that are. This is the naturalistic fallacy. We have no reason to think suffering = bad unless you make an a priori assumption that it is bad, or if its a consequence of something other assumed thing of your moral framework.

>No because the point of bringing that up was to try and expose a contradiction in my worldview but my response shows that no such contradiction exists.
How so?
>>
>>18482292
>Naively yes, until you grow up and realise not just society's ethics change, but your own as well.
All kinds of things in societies change. Science is a social endeavor, and it has changed. Just because our theories change does not rule out the objectivity of whatever we're theorizing about.

>I don't mind accepting any framework you propose if we're purely arguing about the correct ethics in that framework. What I reject is that there's a single "true" framework.
But you just self-refuted again. If you think that moral relativism is the correct moral framework, then that itself is a relative moral framework. And you said I need to "grow up." How about you take a basic logic class first.
>>
>>18482299
What proof do you have for morals being as objective as physical facts?
My observations tell me: morals are not objective at all. Even for a human collective, morals vary to such a vast degree, that they directly oppose each other in many circumstances. Even (for moral objectivists/realists/universalists) seemingly obvious facts can be easily contradicted by millions of people.
>If you think that moral relativism is the correct moral framework
I don't think it's a framework at all. You're confusing metaethics with ethics. To me, moral relativism or pluralism (I actually prefer the latter because people immediately start seething about moral relativism) is just a simple fact about the existence of multiple frameworks and ultimately speaking, there being no objective way to compare them against each other, unless you provide some axioms (core beliefs). Sure I have a framework of my own, but it's based on my core believes obviously.

Lol.

>>18482309
>What proof do you have for morals being as objective as physical facts?
I don't believe morals are physical facts at all. I take moral realism to be the starting point of ethics because non-moral-realism often result in absurdities.

>Even for a human collective, morals vary to such a vast degree, that they directly oppose each other in many circumstances.
Again this doesn't mean there isn't an objective morality. We can just be wrong about what morality is and how to model it through an ethical framework. Moral realist can actually make the opposite claims of you and show how there are moral beliefs that are consistent across cultures. In fact they could also argue for moral progress, much in the same we have scientific progress.

>I don't think it's a framework at all. You're confusing metaethics with ethics.
Actually you are right I made a mistake. I misunderstood you there for a second. My apologies.
>>
>>18482319

Show me an absurdity and I'll show you why it's not absurd at all according to a subset of people on earth
>there are moral beliefs that are consistent across cultures
There literally is no such thing

Anyway, let's start arguing should be fun! Especially since you have a certain set of beliefs both regarding frameworks themselves and a framework. So, what morals do you wanna argue about? Or do you wanna first clarify realism vs pluralism?
>>
>>18482294
>How?
It's isn't a gotcha. A commatose person is dependent on someone else for their survival, in the case of being braindead they don't have a conscious experience. Sure they could wake up but they also might not. I believe that a family should not be forced to keep them alive on a chance they may recover. Obviously the specifics and details if when it is okay to pull the plug are best handled by experts such as doctors and such.

>What if we killed them instantly?
That's okay. And before you make the jump to humans with the same logic, I don't give animal life equivalent value to human life, because I'm human. But I don't think the amount of suffering they experience in factory farms is okay.

>So how do you know that insects aren't conscious?
Well they have a lot smaller brain and nervous system and their behavior is very predictable and robotic. Like if a flea sees a light flicker they instinctually jump towards it because they interpret it as the shadow of a host passing by. Their behavior is similar to what we see in programmed systems, I'm very confident they don't have an inner experience.
>Just because something...your moral framework.
Are you the moral relativist anon? I'll make a simple argument ig if you really really need one.
I don't like suffering. Therefore other people don't like suffering. Therefore we should work together to reduce the amount if suffering.
How are you going to argue that suffering is good? And I don't take suffering to be the same thing as discomfort or struggle. I would agree that exercise or learning is good even though it can cause discomfort or struggle. I would not agree that getting lung cancer is good for any reason.
>>
>>18482326
>How are you going to argue that suffering is good?
Relativist anon here (not the same one you're replying to)
This is literally the foundation of some of the biggest religions on earth. Actually shows very well how vastly different moral perception can be, you believe in reducing suffering, but some religious people would argue that without suffering you'd literally have no free will so we need at least some suffering and this reducing suffering as much as possible is not just bad, but directly goes against god.
>>
>>18482325
>Show me an absurdity and I'll show you why it's not absurd at all according to a subset of people on earth
I think you're confusing the fact that there are relative moral system with the idea that moral realism is true. Like nobody is going to disagree with you per se that on one level morality is relative in the sense of culture. But that doesn't mean morality simpliciter is relative. It doesn't show there isn't a universal moral framework. The problem with moral relativism on any level is that you cannot have genuine moral disagreement between different moral frameworks because you would be operating on fundamentally different assumptions. Unless we have some basic first principles we share about morality, then it seems like we can't have moral debate or ethics at all.

>A survey of 60 diverse societies found that the moral valence of seven cooperative behaviors was uniformly positive. In every society for which there were data, these seven cooperative behaviors were considered morally good.

The survey also found that these cooperative morals were widespread—with most appearing in most societies—and that they were observed with equal frequency across all cultural regions.

>>18482335
I guess the question is if you're constraining yourself to humanity.
But moral realism doesn't do that, so I have a problem with moral realism. Moral realism says there's objective moral statements about EVERYTHING. That seems extremely illogical to me, since I can easily conceive of an alien civilization with completely inverted morals.
Now whether that distinction is useful is a different question, but I prefer the truth (moral relativism) over a white lie.
>study
An appeal to popularity does not prove moral realism. I'm sure I can find you some monks or shut-ins who'll say cooperation is bad.
Now, do I think that WITHIN THE CONSTRAINTS of humanity, there is a an abstract set of base morals that most (not all, most), humans will agree with? Sure. But that doesn't contradict my general position.

But you haven't justified why it's ok to pull the plug on them. If you say it's because they're not conscious, why should consciousness be considered the cornerstone of how morally treat others?

>That's okay. And before you make the jump to humans with the same logic, I don't give animal life equivalent value to human life, because I'm human. But I don't think the amount of suffering they experience in factory farms is okay.
So then you agree that there is objective human value then? How do we determine which humans have more value than other humans? You haven't justified that.

>Well they have a lot smaller brain and nervous system and their behavior is very predictable and robotic. Like if a flea sees a light flicker they instinctually jump towards it because they interpret it as the shadow of a host passing by.

1. You're assuming physicalism
2. Even if physicalism were true that doesn't rule out insects are conscious since consciousness could exist on a variety of levels.

>I don't like suffering. Therefore other people don't like suffering.
That is a non-sequitur.
>>
>>18482326
>How are you going to argue that suffering is good?
Well maybe good can be brought out of suffering. Aquinas theodicy includes this in it. Suffering can bring about endurance, psychological growth, maybe in fact a small group of people suffering can bring a large degree or pleasure to an even larger degree of people if you accept a kind of consequentialism and believe pleasure = good. My point is that you cannot conclude suffering is bad simply because there is suffering, you need to either a priori hold to it, or deduce it from some other assumption you hold to like maybe, "suffering doesn't lead to human flourishing, and lack of human flourishing is bad, so suffering is bad" or something along those lines.
>>
>>18482352
>That seems extremely illogical to me, since I can easily conceive of an alien civilization with completely inverted morals.
So you mean to say: "I can conceive of a morally different culture or species or whatever, therefore there is no objective morality."
This is a modal fallacy. Descartes also did this when he tried to argue that the mind is a different substance from the body since he could "conceive that the mind and body were different." You can conceive of a world full of relative moral systems, it doesn't mean moral relativism is true.
>An appeal to popularity does not prove moral realism. I'm sure I can find you some monks or shut-ins who'll say cooperation is bad.
>Now, do I think that WITHIN THE CONSTRAINTS of humanity, there is a an abstract set of base morals that most (not all, most), humans will agree with? Sure. But that doesn't contradict my general position.
Well you're right, it doesn't. But that wasn't my point. My point was to simply show how your claim that there are no shared set of moral values is false. You cannot then use your prior claim to prove moral relativism. So either you're contradicting yourself or you concede my point.

Yes it's murder but nobody cares. People do mean stuff all the time. Factory farming is also evil but so what, people are still going to eat meat because it's tasty

>>18482368
>This is a modal fallacy.
It's really not when we are talking about absolute moral statements. Also I obviously mean physically and logically conceive. Doesn't even have to be another planet, imagine humanity dies out and we get a bunch of sentient parasites, cooperation definitely would be absolute immoral for them since they're parasitic by nature.
>You can conceive of a world full of relative moral systems, it doesn't mean moral relativism is true.
I don't need to conceive of one, we live in one. The alien thing is just a drastic example to exemplify it. The fact alone that exceptions for any moral statements exist on earth is sufficient to prove moral relativism. I'm sure I can find you some antisocial people or super ascetic monks who'll argue cooperation is bad. Same goes for base instincts like survival, I'm sure I can find some ultra nihilists.
>But that wasn't my point. My point was to simply show how your claim that there are no shared set of moral values is false
Yeah fair, that claim was too drastic, obviously there are
>You cannot then use your prior claim to prove moral relativism
The claim that there are no shared values? Sure. I guess I should refine it to sa "there are no universal absolute shared values". Do you agree or disagree?

That's great and all, but we aren't isolated creatures. For better or in this case for worse, the unaborted children grow up to be members of society. They interact with YOU and your children. So yes, it actually will be your mess to clean up too, albeit to a lesser extent.

I never said abortion should be disallowed. In fact, I never stated my opinion on whether or not abortion should be legal. All I said was that disallowing you from murdering your kid is not "forcing you" to do anything. Reread what I said, illiterate.

Killing an intruder is not murder, because the intruder is not an innocent person. Murder is the killing of an innocent, which is what an unborn child is. Are you ESL?

I dunno, boss, all human peoples have made taboos, laws, and practices which resemble or are even identical to one another, regarding things like theft, rape, and murder. Almost like there is a universal constant through out all times and for all peoples.
>I'm sure I can find you some monks or shut-ins who'll say cooperation is bad.
There are plenty of thieves, murderers, rapists, traitors, and all sorts of others who are condemned by all societies and moral systems, and there existence does not disprove moral reality, in the same way that buildings that are made in a faulty manner and collapse does not disprove the science and practice of making buildings. The existence of renegades, if anything, proves the usefulness of morality, because it is by morality that we distinguish them. If you disagree, can you describe to me why these evils are bad in a way that is truly morally relative or morally pluralistic?

>>18482975
The sperm cells released from jacking off are not their own discrete being that will have a complete mind and independent body, but will only conditionally do so after fertilizing an egg and creating a zygote, which is human and alive
Why does that conditionality not magically also apply to the zygote? In terms of biological complexity for the first few weeks it's only marginally different and obviously has neither brain nor consciousness

Define most morally consistent, it's not morally consistent at all. Aside from the "because I wanna", theres a shitton of cases where common sense says an abortion makes perfect sense but "morally consistent" retards like you say "but it's murder!!!"

Are you willing to pay for the emotional and mental support of all of that with your taxes, or does your compassion suddenly end there? Also are you willing to pay for better instruments to detect exactly when a life begins so we can accurately mourn these early miscarriages since they're fully fledged humans after all?
>>
>>18482998
All sins are wrong, but not all of them are murder. Does that make sense to you?

>>18483000
Now imagine those who suffered a miscarriage seeing people who were forced to have children they didn't want slapping them around and using them as human ashtrays. How'd they feel then?

>>
>>18483004
>Are you willing to pay for the emotional and mental support of all of that with your taxes

You fucking commie piece of shit.

It requires both otherwise you're a hypocrite. If you unironically think the definition of life is THAT extreme, you should also vouch for everything that comes with it. Babies should get child support from conception. Any crimes against pregnant women count doubly so. Etc etc
Now I'm sure you'll just say yes to all of this, but you have to admit this is an extremely rare position and won't get you anywhere, realistically speaking

First this is only like 1% of all abortions so its pretty reatreded to justify pro choice from that
but I would say that even if its extremely hard for the women she should keep it, We are not Christians, the child shouldn't be punished for what their for fathers did they don't have original sin

>>18483011
Yes things are different dumbass, slapping someone is different then killing them, to suggest otherwise is retardom

Assuming that I can’t say is still not murder

Yes abortion is still murder but like the example I gave before it can be justified
>>
>>18483026
>It requires both otherwise you're a hypocrite.
Let's say it does, for the sake of argument.
>Babies should get child support from conception.
Yes, I expect mothers to take care of their bodies for their child while pregnant, and expect that their fathers should take care of their wives and children.
>Any crimes against pregnant women count doubly so.
Yes, it should.
>I'm sure you'll just say yes to all of this
Yes, because I actually believe it, none of this is a larp, this is my actual opinion on the world.
>you have to admit this is an extremely rare position
Only because of the failures of the people in this world
>won't get you anywhere, realistically speaking
People thought Roe v. Wade would never be overturned.
>>
>>18483041
So it is a valid dichotomy since you seem to accept it and validly answer it. You opt for case two, namely "murder is ok in some cases".
Which cases are those? We've covered if the life of the mother is at risk, what if it was a young girl who was raped? Should she carry out the baby and be mentally scarred for life? That seems pretty evil to me
>>
>>18483036
>doesn't understand what a massive number 1%of all pregnancies is

>So it is a valid dichotomy since you seem to accept it and validly answer it. You opt for case two, namely "murder is ok in some cases".
No it’s not dumbass you saying that I have to accept that abortion is not bad is not the same to say that only around 1% of abortions are justifiable

> what if it was a young girl who was raped? Should she carry out the baby and be mentally scarred for life?
Already spoke about this
>but I would say that even if its extremely hard for the women she should keep it, We are not Christians, the child shouldn't be punished for what their for fathers did they don't have original sin

> That seems pretty evil to me
Coming form someone who is advocating that murder is moral this doesn’t mean much
>>
>>18483029
You could say murder is property damage, yes, but that feels very bourgeoisie to me. Don't you think it's a bit more than that?
>>
>>18483049
Murder is justified every single day. It goes something like "I am wearing a green jacket and was told to murder the man in the brown jacket by a man in a fancier green jacket than mine. His had gold ribbon on it so I had to murder the man or I'd get into trouble!"
>>

False equivalency

Although 99% of abortions are murder hence my generalisation; Abortion is not inherently murder because murder is unjustified killing and like the example I gave before it can be justified

See how you had to mix my words to make it sound like I said murder is justified; how pathetic
>>
>>18483060
How are you meaningfully not also an object?
>>
>>18483050
>More projection

>>18483061
So they are in fact people, and aborting them is killing them, then?
>>
>>18483063
>See how you had to mix my words to make it sound like I said murder is justified
You literally said "Yes abortion is still murder but like the example I gave before it can be justified". If murder is defined as unjust killing, then it by definition cannot be justified and the instances of abortion that can be justified are not murder. The example I gave was that the only way for you to not run into the contradiction wrt murder and justification was to use some other meaning of the word "justify" (like in my example).

If it is genuinely a mind-assembly kit, it deserves a place of privilege among objects - for most objects can do no such thing, but these ones are capable of constructing a being like us, a subject with a mind.

No, it is not required for me to sell my phone to feed an orphan to think that murdering orphans is bad. The causes and solutions of these kinds of problems tend to require mass efforts through political or religious orgs, and are not something I could fix as one person - me getting them one meal will not fix their misery, but you murdering them will end any hope of their lives improving.

Definition One: A Subject is that which possesses a mind, that for which the statement 'I think, therefore I am' can be truly said.
Definition Two: An Object is any of the myriad of things which lack this quality of mind.
Proposition One: It is beneficial from a purely morally relativistic sense that Subjects existing in a society of Subjects should entreat one another with special protections against harm, if only for the sake of mutual cooperation.
Proposition Two: It is possible for a Subject to become an Object, like when under the effects of anesthesia or, arguably, when sleeping.
Proposition Three: Subjects should be entreated with these protections even in situations where they become Objects, or Impaired Subjects, as in impaired states of mind - under the effects of hallucinogens, when sleeping, or under the coma of anesthesia, for instance.
Conclusion One: An Object which can attain the status of Subject should be entreated with unique protections from harm, in like manner as Subjects should entreat one another.

4% of respondents cited physical health problems of the mother as a reason for seeking an abortion. While this broader figure covers various health issues, analyses often interpret the subset involving immediate, severe threats to the mother's life as falling within a 1% to 3% range.

yes, you should always know that those are never equal to reality, there are many countries with different laws and different ways of gathering data

if you want children you can have them, if you don't then you won't have them. Humans are inteligent beings that can bend the enviorment to their will thanks to science and civilisation, we are not animals that are only meant to breed

So it’s ok to kill the fetus if it not conscious? It developes rights after it develops conscious

Ok sure?

> Humans are inteligent beings that can bend the enviorment to their will thanks to science and civilisation, we are not animals that are only meant to breed
True but you shouldn’t be surprised we you pregnant with a child because you had sexual interviews and you should be aware that you may bring in life into this world because you are doing it

>>
>>18483328
mb I misread

>>18483324
>yes, if the woman who's the fetus is part of her body wills so
Ok cool, lets do a thought explement.
Lets say you had a fetus in your body who has not developed consciousness yet (mi going under the physicalist perspective) and you sever the part of the fetus brain so he can not have a connection between his right and left hemispheres but still keeping him alive, basically biologically alive but not conscious (and we can guaranty that its not conscious). And you give birth to this body and then you do the same thing 10000 times until you have a farm of biologically human bodies which you bread and kill for their organs it would also be reasonable to assume that you could by it of your own personal wants.

So you have practicably made a farm of humans which get sold, raped, etc.
But its ok as they don't have rights because they are not conscious so its morally ok

>person in coma has friends/family and citizen laws

Its not that could of become conscious its that it was going to be conscious and that you did a transhumanist experiment to turn it into a living sex doll which you agree is morally ok.

A guy is on track to go by a lottery ticket and you know that the lottery ticket he is going to buy is the winning ticket this ticket will get him out of poverty and help out in so many ways. And you know he is going to buy the winning ticket, would it morally ok for you to go and switch the winning lottery ticket with a losing one so he Nevers wins?
It would be morally ok too do that in this mindset because why should you care that he will win because he haven't yet.

Banning abortion is part of the incel reproduction strategy. By demonizing it they try to limit access to it, and in combination with a fascist regime that lets them get away with rape here and there, much like the ugly incel thugs that the hound kills in game of thrones raping the tavern girl, and so their dogshit incel orc genes get to pass along. Its goblin reproductive strategy from goblin slayer. All the pearl clutching about amounts to this.

Abortion is for promiscuous whores. A woman who loves a husband would feel honored in giving birth to his offspring.

The only reason God has allowed women to rebel against men is because men have rebelled against God by doing what grieves his heart. He who is not submissive to God does not deserve to have a wife to submits to him, because wickedness and degeneracy is in his mind.

If pro-lifers really thought that abortion is murder why aren't they going out to burn down abortion clinics en masse? If they truly felt that abortion is in no way different than murdering a child than a few years in prison for arson is surely worth saving thousands of lives right? You're pretty much destroying a death camp at that point.

When refuse the advice of their fathers to marry who they chose and stay home under their protection until he finds a suitable husband.

We need to live how God commands, he created the entire freaking universe, clearly he knows what he's talking about. Obeying him will lead to the most prosperous of societies. Human suffering comes from the human desire to do what humans want and not what their maker commands them.

Stop following your heart, God says it deceptive. Follow him, he's your maker.

Serial monogamy is also incel reproduction strategy as well cause its basically sexual communism where a woman mathematically ends in an incel's kitchen. Just like banning abortion is in combination with fascist regime so is serial monogamy always in combination with artificialy taking away women's ability to fend for themselves without a husband for this one and only sexual communist reason.

Your allegory is retarded. Getting rid of the ticket isn't morally problematic because we ought not get rid of tickets, but because I'd be performing a scam that is against the rules of a lottery which all participants implicitly agree to abide by (i.e. nobody knows which ticket is he winning one). It's analogical to something like match fixing. If on the other hand I find a map to a treasure that the poorfag guy is blindly searching for, dig it up first and keep the contents, there is nothing immoral about that because there's no scam involved.
All your arguments fail because they're not the arguments that worked on you in the first place. You were convinced abortion is wrong for religious/soul-related/otherwise supernatural reasons.
>>
>>18483488
God has never commanded monogamy in his law. Man is allowed by God to have many wives and as many concubines as his heart desires. It is the woman who owes sexual loyalty to her husband. Man does not owe sexual loyalty to any of his wives. His wives literally belong to him. God's laws are perfect, society's laws are oppressive to men and unjust. Man and women are not equal and they must not be treated as such.

Thats a false equivalency and your dumb
On one hand you have absolute knowledge that the guy is going to win the lottery if he is going to buy the ticket (of which he is on his way to do). the potentiality is there and if not disturbed it will actualise
On the other hand its some random joe shom which will most likely not find the treasure. The potentiality is not there and if not disturbed it will not c
So this is a completely different allegory you dumbass

>All your arguments fail because they're not the arguments that worked on you in the first place. You were convinced abortion is wrong for religious/soul-related/otherwise supernatural reasons.
Yea this solidified you retard status, literately all my arguments are an internal critics, I argue under the premises that physicalism is true and that consciousness is generated form the brain and not form the soul like dualism or any other theory of mind like non-dual or idealism.
My human cattle argument only works under physicalism as I am assuming that consciousness is generated form the brain can through some sort of tech can stop it from developing

They're not self sufficient, they rely 100% on the government bribing and extorting businesses to hire them. They are allowed to do whatever they want only because the government oppresses fathers and husbands on their behalf and prevents them from disciplining them and keep them in line.

Good you just admitted that acting upon someone potentiality and stopping them to actualise is immoral
And again its a fucking allegory and just the man does know the winning lottery ticket just the mother knows the baby will develop consciousness
The mother knows that the fetus has the potentiality for life and if not disturbed it will actualise

They way your are handling this is like if I gave an allegory of a man which knows a 1000000 digit code and then i expect you to write down all 1000000 digits and if he did gets them all it would be way more probable to assume that the guy cheated; then like the special ed you are you would say some shit like "no man can remember a 1000000 digit code

>I can just postulate that I know he'll find it. It could be that he's digging in a predictable grid pattern, or that I heard him saying in the pub where he'll dig next etc.
>having to change the allegory because its shit
Again it would be unlikely; but even then its still completely different from my allegory as in mine you know that he is going to win the lottery ticket and his potentiality is going to actualise
In yours you are just assuming that his potentiality will actualise even though you don't have foreseeable knowledge that he will unlike mine. Also both of you are competing for the treasure and only one of you will live the mothers potentiality has already been actualised the babies haven't. And if the babies potentiality actualises it won't kill the mother (and if it did I already said how in this instance an abortion is justifiable)

You are the one missing my point. The immorality of taking the ticket isn't due to the potential of the man to get the prize (after all, the treasure seeker has the same potential to get the treasure yet me taking it isn't immoral), it's due to breaking the implicit rules of the lotto by participating while knowing which ticket will win.

I wouldn't take that road if I were you. If it's only immoral if you definitely know the potential will be fulfilled, then under that framework abortion isn't immoral in the real world because the mother never actually knows for sure whether the baby would've been carried to term successfully.

The mother is the man with the knowledge, she knows that the fetus (the man which is on his way to get the ticket) is good to get the winning ticket if undisturbed

man knows about the other mans potentiality to win the lotto and if not disturbed it will actualise and he will win
Mother knows about the fetus potentiality to develop consciousness and if not disturbed it will actualise and it will develop consciousness
Do I need to spoon feed you any more?

>I said that I can postulate I know he'll find it if I don't dig it up first.
Still completing different as in yours your competing, one of you takes it, the other loess it if you act on it
in mine only of you can take it and if the other one disturbs it he losses it and the other man doesn't get anything
yours: take or be token

The chances of it happening are still extremely low; It is predicted that the fetes develops consciousness at week 24 by then miscarriages only have a around 2% likely https://www.chrissieyu.com/miscarriage-statistics-uk/
And even if it was 50% it wouldn't matter as its a natural cause and the mother couldn't do anything about it, unlike actively murdering it (switching the ticket) so she wouldn't be held morally accountable

thats not what i said, abortion is evil because the baby could become a healthy european adult, but instead its killed and thrown in a dumpster. i support aborting disabled, genetically ill and deformed babies as eugenics

>the ticket giving immorality
What on earth are you talking about?
>Again your grade 5 reading comprehension fails you again. If you r-e-m-e-m-b-e-r, I had to just tell you out right what the allegory meet.
>And you are still treating an allegory in a literalistic sense
My objection isn't that the allegory is impossible, it's that I disagree about what is the relevant fact that makes the situation immoral.
>The mother is the man with the knowledge, she knows that the fetus (the man which is on his way to get the ticket) is good to get the winning ticket if undisturbed
>man knows about the other mans potentiality to win the lotto and if not disturbed it will actualise and he will win
>Mother knows about the fetus potentiality to develop consciousness and if not disturbed it will actualise and it will develop consciousness
I understand the analogy. My point is that you misidentified what principle makes the lotto situation immoral, and that the principle that makes the lotto situation immoral is not present in the case with abortion.
That's why I brought up the treasure analogy - it's the same analogy but with the relevant principle (running a scam) removed.
>Still completing different as in yours your competing, one of you takes it, the other loess it if you act on it
I could throw the treasure into the sea and it still wouldn't be immoral.
>And even if it was 50% it wouldn't matter as its a natural cause and the mother couldn't do anything about it, unlike actively murdering it (switching the ticket) so she wouldn't be held morally accountable
You're not tracking the point. The chance we're talking about in this line of the argument is the chance that the treasure seeker will fail to find the treasure even without my interference. My claim is that this is irrelevant to the morality of the analogy, but if you want to claim that it's relevant, then so is the chance that the mother will spontaneously miscarry without interference via abortion.

What question?
>and instead made up a strawman
What strawman? You're literally saying that if you believe something is alive you should automatically value it the same as some other living thing. Why? Nobody thinks this.
>Btw senile vegetable boomers do indeed get taken off life support
Nobody's talking about vegetable-state humans, nice sleight-of-hand.
Basically everybody considers healthy old people to be worth less than healthy young people. Does this mean healthy old people aren't alive and that you can just terminate them if you want?

>Nobody's talking about vegetable-state humans
Fetuses are literally vegetable state humans thoughbeit so you're claiming that nobody's talking about fetuses.

But nobody is denying the humanness or aliveness of adult vegetables. Why is it only fetuses that get this treatment?

>So you celebrate your birthday at conception?
Birthdays are celebrated at birth, it's literally in the name. The concept of birthdays being a thing in Western culture has no bearing on the living status of fetuses. Some cultures don't celebrate birthdays, does that mean they're not alive? Some cultures worship buddhas who protect the souls of aborted or miscarried fetuses, does that mean fetuses are alive in Buddhist countries but if you cross the border they cease to be?

What's with your obsession with the life status of the fetus? Nobody here is claiming the fetus isn't alive.

Ok, sorry, I was mistaken about you being a Christian. So what's with your obsession with whether the fetus is alive then? You know none of the people you're talking to itt are claiming that it's not alive.

>why should consciousness be considered the cornerstone of how morally treat others?
The answer is in the question. You've already implied consciousness by referencing "others" so it should be obvious.

>How do we determine which humans have more value than other humans?
Why would you try to do that?

>1. You're assuming physicalism
Souls are obviously not real.
>That is a non-sequitur.
Wasn't a naturalistic fallacy

I specifically made a distinction between pointless suffering and intentional willful suffering. The difference between exercising and being trapped in a Saw movie is an important difference.

>The zygote has potential for all that. You are advocating for snuffing out a healthy human life.
zygote≠human life
It doesn't matter what could happen the only thing that matters is what is. You aren't depriving someone in the future of life because no one exists in the future.

>>18484322
>The answer is in the question. You've already implied consciousness by referencing "others" so it should be obvious.
It's not. There's nothing "obvious" about it. I've already pointed out how the typical answers given for why sentience should be the metric of morality commit the naturalistic fallacy.

>Why would you try to do that?
You seem to give more value to born people than non-born people.

>Souls are obviously not real.
You're assuming naturalism. This is called begging the question.

>Wasn't a naturalistic fallacy
How do you jump from
>I don't like pain
>Therefore others must not like pain
The conclusion doesn't logically follow unless you add in another premise to connect the two.

>I specifically made a distinction between pointless suffering and intentional willful suffering. The difference between exercising and being trapped in a Saw movie is an important difference.

>pointless suffering
Well it's interesting that you bring this up because it would seem then that suffering is bad not because it causes "unpleasant" experiences, but because it has no object for its end other than, perhaps, itself (under certain circumstances, like cruel torture of one human on another). Many theistic traditions do posit an end for suffering, perhaps to increase the good, or as an exercise of divine judgement, or to sanctify the world. Suffering may be a vehicle for learning, perseverance, and growth. It need not be that which is contrary to the natural end of man, but that which directs it toward eudaimonia "happiness". I think this undermines what you were originally saying about suffering. As I think I rightly pointed out, you cannot conclude suffering = bad because of some natural property of suffering, the feeling of having something unpleasant happen to you doesn't have to be "bad", but it can be if it does not direct the man toward the Good.

I only responded to the quote. I just originally responded to him that it's a non-sequitur. I don't know why he mentioned the fallacy in that particular part desu.
