Forum Rules (Everyone Must Read!!!)
1] What you CAN NOT post.
You agree, through your use of this service, that you will not use this forum to post any material which is:
- abusive
- vulgar
- hateful
- harassing
- personal attacks
- obscene
You also may not:
- post images that are too large (max is 500*500px)
- post any copyrighted material unless the copyright is owned by you or cited properly.
- post in UPPER CASE, which is considered yelling
- post messages which insult the Armenians, Armenian culture, traditions, etc
- post racist or other intentionally insensitive material that insults or attacks another culture (including Turks)
The Ankap thread is excluded from the strict rules because that place is more relaxed and you can vent and engage in light insults and humor. Notice it's not a blank ticket, but just a place to vent. If you go into the Ankap thread, you enter at your own risk of being clowned on.
What you PROBABLY SHOULD NOT post...
Do not post information that you will regret putting out in public. This site comes up on Google, is cached, and all of that, so be aware of that as you post. Do not ask the staff to go through and delete things that you regret making available on the web for all to see because we will not do it. Think before you post!
2] Use descriptive subject lines & research your post. This means use the SEARCH.
This reduces the chances of double-posting and it also makes it easier for people to see what they do/don't want to read. Using the search function will identify existing threads on the topic so we do not have multiple threads on the same topic.
3] Keep the focus.
Each forum has a focus on a certain topic. Questions outside the scope of a certain forum will either be moved to the appropriate forum, closed, or simply be deleted. Please post your topic in the most appropriate forum. Users that keep doing this will be warned, then banned.
4] Behave as you would in a public location.
This forum is no different than a public place. Behave yourself and act like a decent human being (i.e. be respectful). If you're unable to do so, you're not welcome here and will be made to leave.
5] Respect the authority of moderators/admins.
Public discussions of moderator/admin actions are not allowed on the forum. It is also prohibited to protest moderator actions in titles, avatars, and signatures. If you don't like something that a moderator did, PM or email the moderator and try your best to resolve the problem or difference in private.
6] Promotion of sites or products is not permitted.
Advertisements are not allowed in this venue. No blatant advertising or solicitations of or for business is prohibited.
This includes, but not limited to, personal resumes and links to products or
services with which the poster is affiliated, whether or not a fee is charged
for the product or service. Spamming, in which a user posts the same message repeatedly, is also prohibited.
7] We retain the right to remove any posts and/or Members for any reason, without prior notice.
- PLEASE READ -
Members are welcome to read posts and though we encourage your active participation in the forum, it is not required. If you do participate by posting, however, we expect that on the whole you contribute something to the forum. This means that the bulk of your posts should not be in "fun" threads (e.g. Ankap, Keep & Kill, This or That, etc.). Further, while occasionally it is appropriate to simply voice your agreement or approval, not all of your posts should be of this variety: "LOL Member213!" "I agree."
If it is evident that a member is simply posting for the sake of posting, they will be removed.
8] These Rules & Guidelines may be amended at any time. (last update September 17, 2009)
If you believe an individual is repeatedly breaking the rules, please report to admin/moderator.

Originally posted by DarorinagWhy is one a murder and the other isn't? A fetus IS, after all, ALIVE.... Just because it's not yet "born" doesn't mean it's not A LIVING THING.
Dan, just think of the fetus as being black or jew. Then you'll see my point.this post = teh win.

You can't kill something that hasn't been born!

Sorry there cupcake ... birth = "The emergence and separation of offspring from the body of the mother". Therefore, "real birth" would be the "the real emergence and separation of offspring from the body of the mother". Flushing out the fetus before it's born is nothing more than popping a zit. It simply can't survive on it's own. Heck even a new born baby can't survive on it's own ... especially the ones that are stuffed in freezers.
So let's agree to disagree since this is one of those no it's this way no it's that way topics ... you don't abort any of your offspring (moot point in your case ) and in exchange, don't try to dictate what other people should do.Last edited by Sip; 07-25-2004, 05:16 PM.this post = teh win.

Originally posted by DarorinagThat means it's alright to kill BOTH a fetus AND a newborn, right? Because they can't survive on their own.....
How does that prove that there is no life before birth? Are you saying the fetus is actually DEAD? If not, then wouldn't it mean that it's alive? And if yes, doesn't that mean that you can KILL it?
Dictate? Who's dictating anyone? I'm just pointing out the hypocrisy. Everyone is free to do what they want, but it doesn't mean it's the right thing to do. And don't even start with the relativist arguments...
Yeah, that whole argument of weather destroying a fetus is murder or not, is silly (not just what you brought up, Sea, but in general). There are plenty of elderly people who do, or are shortly going to need assistance in living. Should people be allowed to kill their parents, too, since to some, they're going to be a "burden I don't want to deal with", and then use the premise that this isn't murder since they're lifeless because they can't survive on their own? "They're no different then a fetus, your honor. They're not alive since they aren't self reliant. Thus, they have no life protecting legal rights. They're just useless, lifeless, disposable fetus. BOOya! I rest my case, your honor".
fe·tus [ ftəss ] (plural fe·tus·es)
noun
unborn offspring: an unborn vertebrate at a stage when all the structural features of the adult are recognizable, especially an unborn human offspring after eight weeks of development
I'd say that's a bit more than a zit waiting for some Clearasil, wouldn't you.
The argument really doesn't revolve around the legitimacy of life of an unborn child. The real debate is:
Pro abortion - "I have the right to do whatever I want to the life form, because it's inside my body, and I have control over my body".
Anti abortion - "It may be in your body, but you don't have the right to do what you want to a life form other than yourself".
Anyway, guys. Siggie's right. We already had a long, drawn out thread about this, and this is just a scratch on the surface of what we got into on that thread. We're just going to wined up having a repeat thread (of something other than religion for once).

I was really surprised when I heard about that. If she went through the agonizing pain to bring her child into this world, why on Earth did she kill him? She could have put him up for adoption. I don't get it.
