@Frank Apisa,
Quote:I repeat, I have absolutely no trouble with the word "decide" at all. You ought really to come to grips with the fact that you suppose I do not merely to support your increasingly bizarre position.
MYOH.
Quote:I do not have to describe an abortion from any position in order to be of the opinion that if a woman decides for any reason to end a pregnancy occurring in her own body, she should have the right to do so.
I'll let you get away with that when you answer the questions about rights to have no kids, abortion every pregnancy, 12 kids, eat up to 300 pounds, starve themselves to death, and, for a bloke, to dodge the draft. And the rights of the unborn kid.
Quote:Aha...so if a person is not able to decode an "acronym" made up on the spot...it means that person is slow on the uptake.
Yes--when the expression had been used so many times I had got fed up typing it all out. I use NATO as well. And UNESCO. I decided to use the acronym because I knew how often it was going to come in handy and now I have taught it to you I'm sure it will. MYOH is your statutory obligation.
Quote:If you think you want to describe any of those things...do so. It will not impact at all on my position.
The operation has not been shown on TV, and many others have. precisely because a graphic depiction would seriously impact most people's position. Perhaps you have a less sensitive disposition than most people. I wouldn't dream of putting what literary skills I possess into shocking A2Kers to quite that extent.
Quote:Lots of things. Perhaps if you opened your mind a crack, you could think of a few yourself.
Suggest one for thread operations which is what we are on. "Lots of things" is very cheapjack MYOH.
Quote:You would have done better making that sentence one of your silly acronyms, Spendius. It makes less sense than your argument...and that makes almost no sense.
Are all the others who make the argument against abortion as silly as I am. "Silly" is MYOH. And if silly is appropriate where does "almost" come from?
Quote:Well, I am not feeble-minded...and I know many others who support this position who are not feeble-minded. Because I disagree with your position, I certain am not so insecure as to label anyone who promotes it to be feeble-minded. You ought work on what it is about you that causes you to do this kind of thing so often.
I didn't say, or imply, that you are feeble-minded although your inability to read what I wrote suggests you are.
Quote:My dear, dear friend, you have not made an argument that I have not answered...and demonstrated that alternate perspectives work just fine. In fact, I cannot remember an argument you have made that I have not demonstrated a better counter argument.
MYOH. And forget the dear friend shite. I don't even talk to promoters of abortion in the pub.
