Part of the problem with the abortion issue goes with our perception of the value of animal life in general. We see a fly and swat it. We see a rat and set a dog on it. We see a cockroach and stamp on it. Pests. No problem. But when elephants trample villages, or other warm-blooded mammals become pests, there's an outcry about the destruction method. We don't see giant sledgehammers swatting elephants! - practicalities aside. Destruction has to be humane. And when it suits our purposes. It seems that cuddly, warm-blooded, embryo look-alikes get more emotional feeling than flies, cockroaches, mosquitos et al. From a strictly 'argument' point of view, emotion shouldn't enter the picture. If pro-lifers/anti-abortionists looked at the issue dispassionately and rationally (difficult, I know), then they may well end up with a different viewpoint. How do we take the emotion out of argument?

"thats just the way it is" isn't much of an argument! So, basically you don't care that some people can have rights, while others who should have them don't get them. So, I take it you liked segregation, prohabition and prefer women barefoot in the kitchen rather than at the polls voting for anything. Wow! all I an say is wow.

Yes I disagree with that point. The navy, just like the police, can't possibly be everywhere that danger might raise its ugly head. Merchant ships can't afford a 24/7 navy escort anymore than the average citizen can afford to hire body guards 24/7.There's no legitimate reason why merchant ships should be unarmed and unable to address dangers that deliberately come after them.

And that has happened in some cases. Mosquitoes are changing the development cycles to coincide with increasingly warmer temperatures. Fish species are enlarging their habitats as water temperatures rise. Many species are moving north as temperature rises

You are perhaps thinking of the Miller-Urrey experiment. No one expected life to appear. They were merely curious about what would happen if they simulated the conditions of the early Earth.Since then, we've found pretty much the same thing in the interior of stony meteorites, including an excess of L-forms. So, it's confirmed the findings of Miller-Urey. None of this has anything to do with evolution, however.Evolution is the change in allele frequencies over time. This happens in populations; individuals don't evolve. Everything else in evolution is an elaboration of this phenomenon.

If one is prepared to put in a bit of research, that shouldn't apply on a web forum. One has time between posts to check what's being said, look for counter arguments etc. If the best one can come up with after all that is "I know you are wrong but can't prove it", then one is out of ones depth in the argument. The unavoidable conclusion from this, is that any claim to "know" the other is wrong is 100% faith based...G.

** You are very, very good at pretending that what your apponent says is invisible. Your repetition of the same fatuous inanity, (as always, phrased as evasive rhetorical questions instead of honest declarations of opinion), is nothing but a repetition of the objection I demolished in the very post you are quoting. And here's another flash, socrates. The fact that some organisms die, for any number of reasons, sooner than some of their relatives do, explains exactly nothing. The insinuation that this survival differential has some universal, as opposed to local, efficient cause, is pure fecal matter. And that's all you've got, wiseguy. A simple fact of life, and an insinuated cause, and you think they add up to evolution. Breathtakingly simple-minded assumption, fella.

And that's the rub: it never has (apart from when it has of course, with the various versions that exist). You choose to put faith in the writings of a primitive bronze age society.

Besides being terribly wrong, that's not evolution and has nothing to do with evolution. Perhaps because you know so little about orbital physics you think that the sun rising and setting is any kind of evidence for the earth orbiting the sun. It isn't. You would have to actually understand a little about it to know that. Nobody, from Copernicus onward, used observations of the revolution of the earth to conclude that the earth was in orbit around the sun.

You've gotta love when ignorance lends itself to incredible mistakes like the above statement. "Excepting" that there is some magical sky man is precisely what atheists do. Looks like we have another Einstein who wants to test his opinions with people who actually know what they're talking about. lpdm, you'd better learn quickly, or I don't think you'll like it here as much as you were hoping. So far, you've been nothing but wrong.
