Arguing with Christians is like playing chess with a pigeon.  No matter how good I am at chess, the pigeon is just going to knock over the pieces, shit on the board and strut around like it's victorious.

The truth is slow, but relentless. Over time it becomes irresistible.

I see Henry to tried to justify his straw man by calling it "food for thought." BZZZZZT! There was no thought involved in that hysterical slur. There wasn't even a logical progression from one act to the other. But thank you for playing.

Breaking it down to simple words, Henry tried to say those who oppose torture favor abortion on demand. This is a propaganda technique known as a "false analogy." Y'all owe it to yourselves to become familiar with propaganda techniques, so as a public service I am providing this link:

Learning to recognize the way politicians, religious fanatics and corporate pirates manipulate us is a first requirement for becoming a critical thinker.

And for the record, Henry, Ex's logic was every bit as logical as yours ... more so in some cases.

And also for the record, calling a comment "lame," without demonstrating that comment's deficiency, usually means you can't think of a reasonable response. Or that you have exhausted your vocabulary.

The majority of the people who are against waterboarding are for abortion which includes partial birth abortion which involves just what Henry said.

    yet many of you think waterboarding a known terrorist is absolute horrible torture and completely immoral..but pulling baby's head out of mother, sucking brain out with long needle is acceptable alternative to contraception....

You want to give us a source for that absurd generalization, or shall we all just assume you are pulling "facks" out of your butt, as usual?

I wasn't on that list, but I'm not for it either. I think giving birth to 9 kids might be evidence of that. :wink:

But I'm not for torture, as well, so I guess I wouldn't have been on the list and there really is no need to defend my position, huh?
Looks like I've come full circle.

I'm not for abortion. :no:
You are of the opinion that a woman should be allowed to have an abortion which, yes, I understand that is a personal choice, but that includes killing baby's who can live outside of the womb, partial birth abortion, and, I'm sorry, but that shouldn't even be an option. What they, the doctors, do to abort those baby's is just wrong and it is torture.

But they don't want to become critical thinkers; it would shatter their little make-believe world.

That's such a bullshit argument; partial birth abortions amount to less than one fourth of one percent of all abortions and have been banned since 2003 except in cases where the mother's health is in danger.

That's not a source, cupcake. That's an unverified list (for one thing, I have never stated an opinion on abortion; for another, Sandy flatly denies your allegation) that you made up out of your warped imagination. You said, "majority of the people who are against waterboarding are for abortion." You listed seven people. That's not a "majority of the people." It's not a source. And it's not verifiable.

I'm beginning to understand why you seem to have no creditability on this board. Except as the standing joke.
