There should be nothing to depend on if you contend that "murder is murder" and that "you can't say it's wrong and then say it's right under certain circumstances".
That's hypocrisy, yo.
Lady_Zee;5392686 said:I believe both are murder also.
What I'm saying is, you can't say they're both completely the same as they are not indeed equal.
An innocent unborn life hasn't even had the opportunity to 'sin' yet.
Whereas the deathrow inmate has been convicted of a horrendeous crime and has been judged by a jury to be executed.

No it's not the couple's choice it's only the womans and that in itself is wrong.

Thanks for paying attention.
Humans are animals so life is life regardless of the species IMO
You do realize that plants are also alive, so those veggies and fruits vegetarians eat were once alive as well.
Very silly argument "life is life".

This is the dumbest thing you have ever said. You are comparing the worth of human beings to animals. Every pig on earth is not worth one innocent human life.
Abortion is evil unless the mom life is in danger.
The death penality should only apply to rapist. Because their are some crimes you do then there are some crimes you are.

The difference is the sentience of animals. Plants have no subjective experiences and do not feel pain.
Plants can repair damage to themselves, plants are able to turn towards the sun, whether or not they feel pain or not isn't conclusive. So because it makes vegetarians and people like yourself to feel better knowing you're digesting a creature that was once alive you tell yourself the plants never felt a thing, as if feeling or not feeling pain is the ultimate justification for whether or not a life is taken.
JG's Legal Adviser;5392567 said:Murder isn't murder though, there are reasons and circumstances behind it that must be taken into consideration when deciding on the punishment that is or isn't deserved.
Lady_Zee;5392798 said:The definition of pain is a signal of impending or present tissue damage that's affected by a harmful stimulus, and thus is experienced by almost all multicellular organisms.

1. Plants have no nervous system or brain. These are necessary for "pain" to be "felt".
2. Plants repairing themselves and moving towards the sun are strictly chemical reactions and have nothing to do with personal choice. Magnets are attracted to certain metals but it doesn't mean the magnet is making a personal choice to act in that way.

It makes no difference if animals or plants feel pain or not. They are both food, and food is to be eaten. The death of food sustains human life, this death is good.
The death caused by abortion in most cases does no good. Human beings are so much more than animals, and if you think that is all we are then why should we not act like it and eat whatever the fuck we want.

That's hypocrisy, yo.
Murder is murder, we all know that.
If someone kills someone in self defense, it's murder, but under certain laws, that person might not be imprisoned.
Doesn't change the fact that what happened was murder though.
Why is your stance changing now? When it was people that are pro-life/pro-capital punishment, you were on this stance that murder is murder and if it is wrong under one circumstance then it should be wrong under all circumstances?
Now suddenly when the question is asked to you, it depends? Hold yourself to the same ridiculous standard that you hold people that are pro-life/pro-capital punishment so you won't be a hypocrite.

Wrong that only the woman gets to decide - or wrong overall ?
I'm also of the opinion that the father should have equal say over it.
One thing for certain though is who shouldn't have a say - is any other person besides the mother and the father.
