Have you adopted a child?
Anyways, pro-lifers (liars, hypocrites and retards) here is a very good page that helps you to adopt children...I hope being so morally upright as you guys are you will see that it is the best to adopt an older child as youngers have a higher chance of being adopted anyways. Also, maybe you should look for other than white races:
http://foster-child.adoption.com/guide/foster-adoption-ebook.html
The page also gives help if you should want an infant, but you know, it is just so much harder for older children to get adopted, so I linked to adopting from foster care. I respect that you are really going to stand by your beliefs and that you will be part of the solution. You know, before I could never have any respect for pro-lifers, cause they only preach they never do what they say, but you will be the good example that gives me faith again. Thank you.
Oh, also remember you can adopt more than one child. That would be great. The more you can do, right? Thanks a lot. Really, I appreciate your commitment.
I hope especially you RJ and you JM will do that

Or you just here because I personally give you reason to exist?
Let's give you something on topic:Would you adopt? Yes or no?
Have you ever adopted? Yes or no?
Will you ever adopt? Yes or no?Those are civil, genuine questions I am asking you, all insults aside, that I would like you to answer, will you? Or will you avoid?

Have I ever adopted? Nope
Will I ever adopt? Isn't this just question one, worded differently?
I am just happy I am not a girl so i dont have 2 deal with this
I am just happy that I am not into girls (ne more) so i dont have 2 deal with this
Abortion is not nor will never be an issue for me, which is why my opinion on it should make no difference for a person (man or woman) who really does have to deal with this one day.
For those of you men and women who DO have to deal with this in your life, I am so sorry....must suck big time.

Glad to see you're homosexual now and not bisexual, as I never believed you when you used to say you were [bisexual]... but, that was also an irrelevant post so I'll leave the thread with:
"Who runs Bartertown!?"

What it "means" to be human to some, i.e; those things that define our species, do not make something an ACTUAL human.
To some; what it means to be human is being able to appreciate a sun rise and stuff like that. That stuff is as subjective as the meaning of life.
What IS and ISN'T a human technically, isn't subjective, and is proveable.
Unless I've misinterpreted you, in which case I apologise.

As I said to you before, what do you mean by humanity? The literal point in which something becomes a human? Or the essense of our species that makes us different to any other?
It's just a floating organism being kept alive by an ACTUAL human. Effectively a parasite.

It's more of an commensalistic relationship than parasitic.
But it's really neither, because it isn't an organism.

You owe me a debate, since you didn't live up to your own promise last time. Snap, snap, chop, chop. Get to it, skippy.

Because a foetus, or more importantly, cells, are not human. They are an entirely different kind of organism.
A foetus lacks anything to attribute humanity to it besides that of "It was created by a human.", which essentially means nothing.

What makes a human? Our DNA? Or?
Because, a human embryo is human, it's not a chicken (or other) embryo is it?

It's human in the sense that it was created by one. It's not a human in the sense you or I are humans, therefore it does not deserve the same rights.
Either way, cells are not humans, are they?

A fetus starts at 8 weeks.. at 8 weeks, it is clearly human; has all the structure of a birthed human.
At that point I still believe the woman has the right to do as she wishes, but what of people who claim anything before that, including conception, is human?
That's what you're seeing in this thread, and that's wrong isn't it?
I'm more interested in showing what human ISN'T, because that's where the debate lies.

So you're claiming that in human development when you're a fetus you're a non-human? Yes? So, is a rat fetus a non-rat? Or is a cow fetus a non-cow?
