Assisted Suicide

1. Can you produce a receipt for it?

 

 

2. Logically you should be anti-abortion then.

 

 

1. Slavery is banned in the West. There are no receipts. Your life is not a transactory product unless you decide it is. Even the morally ambiguous catholic church is allegedly anti-slavery.

 

2. Incorrect. A zygote is not a person.

So you have no proof of ownership? Marks and Sparks would laugh you out the door without a receipt, yet you think that will wash here?

 

2. Incorrect. A zygote is not a person.

You didn't use the term person before.

 

Surely the principle you stated about freedom of action being legitimate, as long as it does no harm to another, applies across the board? A selective principle is no principle at all.

Is it assisted suicide if someone shoves you off a bridge when you're already standing on the edge? Or would that count as murder?

 

Reckon God would be a stickler for technicalities so trying to figure out whether he'd open the pearly gates or not.

 

According to CS everything is gods will so fairly sure the bouncers at heaven would let you in

ALSO

Heaven sounds like a gay club which is why its so appealing to religious fruit loops.

 

 

There is usually an explanation to stuff when you think it through logically.

1. So far as I'm aware, Marks and Spencer deal in legally sold merchandise, not human trafficking. You're attempting to conflate one's own life with a transactory product, which even, as mentioned, the catholic church understands to be illegal.

 

2. There are many things a zygote is not. A person. A human. A Chinese Lantern... I will use whichever term applies in whichever situation necessitates. Whether I used any specific term before is an irrelevance.

 

3. A zygote is not a person, nor a human. Any principle pertaining to the free will of a person does not apply to non-persons. Such as a zygote. Which isn't a person. Nor a human. Nor a Chinese Lantern,

Depends - did you ask them to shove you?

Theres a lot of nuance alright!

It is the first stage of human life. Every bit as human as a baby, toddler, adolescent, pensioner, etc etc.

 

Spunk and eggs are the first stage of human life. A few cell divisions later they're still not people.
