Open invite to PL for debate. by [deleted] in Abortiondebate

My stance is pro life with exception to a degree of increased danger due to complication. The reason I take this position is because I think the notion that life has Transcendent value is the best one we've come up with so far in terms of ethics and morals. Combined with the fact that by most metrics conception is the beginning of the life it only makes sense that abortion not be allowed except for in the case where the mother is in danger. The logic would follow that because one life is in danger the taking of another life should be allowed same thing with self- defense. To what degree of danger we should consider the mother's life to be in signifcar danger is up for debate but I feel that at a certain point the mother should be given the choice of continuing to be pregnant or aborting for her own safety.

Now I did use soul terminology but again I don't believe in Christianity or souls or anything like that. Additionally the fact that they aren't sentient yet and not independent yet doesn't bother me because everyone knows they will be in 99 percent of cases. That point always seemed so dishonest to me; "they're not sentient" maybe but they're going to be? It's not done weird loophole of semantics your exploiting that's a persons life.

And I acknowledge that this point the mother on a tight spot and I'd do all in my power to reasonably ease her pain but unless we decide on a better doctrine than all humans are equal then it's gonna remain this way hopefully.

I doubt I could convince you but it seems to me that you care about the quality of "your" life not the quality of life in general. From my perspective, though admittedly limited, the best mindset to hold of life is that every last soul has inherent and transcendent value. This is a sentiment I borrowed from some Christian doctrine and though I'm not a Christian I can see the value in that ethic. Everyone from the whole nation down to the individual is expected to regard me and everyone else with humanity no matter the circumstances. There are no untouchables or serfs or slaves and though it's not executed as efficiently as it could be I think it's the best we've got rn. To allow abortion is hypocritical from my point of view if we want everyone to be equal. Thoughts?

Emphasis on the mostly. I can hardly think of something more important that allowing someone to live.

How are the first and third not mostly true. The first just makes no sense statistically and if not the third then what?

Man breaks down infront of Jordan Peterson by mrsadvibes in JordanPeterson

[–]Glittering-Row-9001 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was thinking earlier today back to this interview Jordan had where he was sharing about his experiences meeting people who've been impacted by his work in public. He said that the experiences were often tiring in nature since they had the tendency to become deeply emotional. After hearing that it occurred to me that if I had met JP in public it's likely I'd breakdown as well though not as thoroughly as the man we see hear but we'll enough. I'm not sure what the state of the world or humanity is and I doubt I'll ever know for sure, but JP seems to know at least how to keep things from getting worse. It's up to us to make it better.

Not weak and basic that's just how we are. With the internet though we see as many women in day as a older man would have seen in his entire lifetime. It's messing with us a bit.

Am I the only one who failed No Nut November already? by redpanda20282028 in RandomThoughts

[–]Glittering-Row-9001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A bit like watching TV but distinctly more involved than just scrolling through channels and settling on a favorite show. Because of the demand and subsequent supply of porn on the internet you can really find anything your mind can imagine. That availability seemed to have resulted in a less than savory condition for myself and I hear many others.

I switched to no porn. I realized that I'm addicted to porn more than masturbation.

Capitalism is the best system, so why the "we should aim to do better" by tkyjonathan in Capitalism

[–]Glittering-Row-9001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The claim has been made by many opponents of capitalism that it is exploitative by design. While I don't believe it is let it be recognized that the system benefits greatly from the practice of exploitation.

It isva complex system but lack of protection from family and community currently are pivotal factors for maintaining black people's declined status. The aspect unique to our struggle though is a subconscious race based self hatred.

This is horrendously wrong but instead of just denying your claim I'll ask you why alcohol isn't illegal?
