I’ll cross that particular bridge if I ever become a hardcore atheist.

I was impressed that he was able to combine a straw man argument and a red herring in one question.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen that before.

Like it or not the birds and animals are not sentient life.

Humans are.

And if this is all there is then to deprive someone of life for no reason would be a heinous act.

Yes, most impressive. Fortunately, this old fish has been around too long to take that bait.

“simple understanding … A woman doesn’t have a penis because she has a male baby. Not her body.”

It is simple understanding, but can you expect simple understanding and common sense from people who now talk about “menstruating people”?

True. I do sometimes wonder if they really believe that. It has to be more like a personal 1984 for them. They constantly tell themselves 2+2=5 until they believe it. Apply that to most aspects of their lives.

What about the part of the Constitution that says:

We reserve these rights for us and our posterity/offspring? Rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness

Everyone always seems to forget these.

What you have just quoted is often used as a catch all by liberals for whatever entitlements they think they should have. But it comes from the Declaration of Independence, not the Constitution. The Declaration of Independence is not a legal document, it was a letter written to the British Empire explaining why we no longer wanted to be part of it.
