"these FUNDAMENTAL Rights cannot be LEGALLY and MORALLY abridged."
Message 27981822

"I, of course, completely believe that countries can withdraw the admission of human rights and freedoms."

You talk out of either side of your mouth depending on which way the wind is blowing. WHAT A SHOCK!

<<<"If your rights supersede mine just because I may happen to be dependant on you, then these "rights" are not universal at all.">>>

"Yes--but your conditional fails the test of truth. My rights do NOT supersede yours. Don't conflate rights with intelligence."

Don't conflate insults for reason. Thanks for conceding the point.

<<<"If however you are aware that certain naredowells have occupied your barn, and you proceed to exercise your "right" to burn down that barn anyway, (even though they don't have permission to be in your barn) then you sir, will have committed an act of murder and will be found guilty of depriving those poor souls of their legitimate right to life." >>>

"I am not in the habit of burning down barns"

<<<"It's exactly the same thing with abortion.">>>

"Abortion has nothing to do with burning down barns."

That's an idiotic response to a perfectly legitimate analogy.

<<<"Once you know that there is another human being involved, then your rights are mitigated by that fact." >>>

"As I explained, it is impossible to grant rights to all living things. As humans we must draw rational legal and moral lines that preserve the right to reproductive choice and the right to eat carrots. Because without rights we HAVE NO rights."

Again: Human rights are not granted, they are endowed by our Creator as the American forefathers recognized long before the United Nations.

"Violation of fundamental rights is more than indecent: It is obscene"

You just said that you: "completely believe that countries can withdraw the admission of human rights and freedoms." Which is it?

All you do is beg the question of the Humanity of the unborn. Only you can't use science or reason to do it so you are left with nothing but baffle-gag and emotional pleading. All Human beings deserve EQUAL treatment and enjoy EQUAL RIGHTS. Killing other Humans is not a right.
