TE: 59 - "Why? Nothing of your own to believe in nothing of your own to say?"

Actually, yes, I do. I studied this problem of 'God', the universe, and a creator, and could not answer the questions:

Yet you can't put forth one proposition on the subject of abortion without basing it on what 'God' is or isn't, thinks or doesn't think or does or doesn't do.

You must criticize your 'friends' and fellow 'deists' here, not me.

Why? They are not talking to me about God you are. Every response you've made to me has been propped up with "if God thinks this" and "nature is like that" or "god/nature must be such and such". Take the concept of a creator out of your comments and you have said exactly nothing. You seem to be trying to impress me with your knowledge of what other people think. Is that because you don't? Or can't? I don't know what you mean by fellow deists either. What is that supposed to mean?

70 - So - what do you want? I listed my beliefs/non-beliefs. Personally, I don't think abortions should be performed on viable fetuses, but that is my belief. I don't think fertilized eggs are people, but potential people. I don't think we have enough resources to save every fertilized egg, and help it develop into a full grown adult, and that perhaps the most cruel thing one can do in life is to bring an unwanted child into this world. I think that stem cell research, using embyronic stem cells should progress immediately, to save as many lives and ease the discomfort and suffering of hundreds of millions of already born people around the world.

I also think that 'life' began long before the joining of two already living gametes, and that stem cell research to solve these problems is great.

Is that what you want ?
