Actually they are not argumentative. In our society we take oficial note of all deaths of humans. Are you suggesting that death by natural causes is insufficient reason to issue a death certificate, and perform a proper burial? If human life begins at conception how can you not treat every ending of such life equally?
Prisoner.
You’re just playing a semantic game and you know it. A fetus is not a person. m’kay? That’s what YOU mean by “life” and that’s what I was countering.
Your OP is stupid.
You’re right. But I ALSO called it a human cell.
Hey trandallt Did you read? 
And I stand by what I said. It is a human life. But I’m willing to agree to disagree about whether or not it’s a person with the right to live.
Cheese give me some time dang! You all are so impatient.
It was a clump of fucking cells.
Hey, if you can play semantic games, so can I! And didn’t I at least ADMIT that I was playing semantics?
And how about admitting that you said A=B therefore C=/=D, huh?
Ok. Ignoring you begins NOW.
Oh, and I’m not saying nor implying that Diogenes the Cynic is on my ignore list. He’s not. I’m just not going to pay attention to what he has to say in the future.
Yes, I did read. For that matter, you can be described as a gathering of cells. Is that sufficient to describe you? I think not. The higher order description of “human” must obtain. Similarly, if you describe something as a “cell” and also as a “life”, then “life” must be the operative definition.
I didn’t say that A= whatever the fuck. Lick my balls.
That’s a very wise decision on your part since you can’t hope to hold your own in a debate with me. I understand your cowardice and accept your surrender with grace.
Yeah, namecalling. What a great debating tactic. Who resorted to namecalling and who responded to the questions and attacks? I ask the SDMB community. Who attacked whom?
And for the record, I am ignoring your existence because when you fail to see my points you attack me. Your first answer to any post of mine now is offensive. It’s one thing to respond and then berate me later on when I fail to admit defeat. But to START your argument by calling me names? That’s just bad form boy.
Ok for real. That’s it. Diogenes is no longer in my life.
You didn’t have any points. You posted a stupid OP that made no sense. You got busted on it and now you want to run away and cry. Whatever. Coward.
Come on prisoner, are you igging me as well? If human life begins at conception, should we bury miscarriages? If not, why not?
Oh yeah, and Diogenes? I hope you’re always in my life. Well as much as you are right now, anyway. Is anyone else reminded of the New Yorker cartoon where the family is gathered around the old guy’s bed looking at their watches while he says "These are my last words. No wait! These are really my last words… However, No! These are my final words…
Are you willing to finally admit that you aren’t reading? See post #60.
Well I did read it but help me out. Point me towards the part that addresses my question.
And if you will excuse me, I have an event to go to. You may continue this flamefest at your leisure. IANAT(roll)
Run and hide if you like but I responded to that assertion in post 69. I will restate it for you here. Do you contend that deaths by natural causes should be treated differently from deaths by other means? Also, please provide evidence for your allegation of flaming.
Cite, please.
This may be the worst abortion OP I’ve ever witnessed on the Straight Dope. My head is reeling from all the logical fallacies and prisoner’s general inability to follow and address a coherent argument.
Can you be a bit more specific here? What ALL logical fallacies have I made? You guys love to do that, make accusations without backing them up, as if just TELLING the jury, “see? the guy’s guilty” makes him guilty. Present evidence please. Where are the logical fallacies? What coherent arguments were I inable to follow?
