...Let's get right to the heart of the matter. Since you refused to answer this the first time I asked, I'll give it another try. When do you think life begins?

Sorry, I missed that but the flip answer you deserve is:

When do you celebrate your birthday?

Now, I'm really done with you. I am exhausted having to deal with hardheads who wake up cranky. Is that too nuanced for you? No reply required and if provided will reach a dead letter box.

This really speaks volumes about your inability to reason through the situation. I find it incredible that anyone could believe that a child born at 12:00PM on a given day is merely an inanimate object at 11:59AM on that same day, and I'm joined in that view by anyone with an ounce of logic.

I'm sorry you're unable to summon the necessary ounce; perhaps one day you'll grow to understand the blindingly obvious correctness of my statements.

Now, I'm really done with you. I am exhausted having to deal with hardheads who wake up cranky.

I'm not surprised. The level of mental contortions required in order to justify your views would tire anyone out.

When do you celebrate your birthday?

This is so boneheadedly ignorant even a Giuliani supporter should blush to ask it.

It is a birthday, not a conception day. It commemorates the birth, particularly when we cannot precisely determine the date of conception even in the modern era. But from ancient times, we've always been able to mark the date of birth.

I begin to think that FR has been overrun by soccer moms.
