Stemcell use: Good, because no matter how against abortion I may be, there will still be abortion and stem cells, and stemcells are INCREDIBLE for research, that can possibly cure alot of diseases.

by right to death i mean a person has the right to end there lives. Of course i tink i i saw it put into law i woudl also like to see a long conselling period before a person could make that choice, because suicides that happen sponatneously are wrong. But if a person is in a large amount of pain it is a crime to keep them from ending their own life. Afterr all it is THEIR LIFE.

by designer babies i mean being able to choose your babies genes and attributes, for a price.

and by polygamy i of course mean both ways. So degrading females isn't an issue

What about the lives they'd be hurting around them?

Posted: 9/10/2004, 12:12 am
by I AM ME
that of course means something but if it weren't such a social taboo people would talk about their feelings with those around them and probably solve most the reasons if they were emotionally linked. ]

If it's for health reasons then its cruel to ask that family or friends that are suffering be forced to continue to so you don't have to hurt.

Damn I was about to say that! :P

i would never force my wife to suffer for years, months, or days more then she thought she could. If she was in pain and wanted it ended, i'm the selfish one if i dont' allow her to, because of my feelings

Gotcha. Well call me different but I care more about those around me than myself, so thats where i'm comming from. I know its easy saying that when I'm healthy but my position still stands. I'm pro life on all fronts.

Before I start on this. There are many degrees and many different situations in which something may arise. Right or wrong is perhaps too black and white an answer for some of these questions.

Killing:Wrong\Right

Stealing
:Wrong
Discrimination:Wrong
Abortion: As long as it happens before it develops into anything coherent
Gays/Lesbians/Bi-sexuals: Wrong (religion)
War: Wrong
Sharing: Right
Government Help: Right
Rich Helping The Poor: Right
Poor Helping The Rich: Right
Taxes: Good

Words to Achieve Goals: Right
Polygamy: Wrong
Public Healthcare: Good

This next bunch leaves me confused. All 3 below are drugs. All 3 if abused can be harmful. Yet alcohol is legal and the other 2 arent.

A question to those who said they didn't agree with abortion: Do you simply disagree with those who have abortions but respect their right to choose, or would you like to see the law actually changed to make it illegal? (just curious)

I beg to ask the question why people think that eating meat is wrong. Don't get me wrong... its your choice to eat it or not and I don't care if youre a vege or not, but to say its wrong? We're born with a pair of incisor teeth, which dictates we were designed to eat meat. Everyone has/had them. So yeah ... *confused*
