He can buy it, but maybe he should wait to drink it.
My rule is, if you are dead when brain dead with a beating heart then you are not alive until you are brain alive with a beating heart. Life starts with brain activity, around 16 weeks.
In the Old Testament, God breathed life into Adam, and thus he became a living soul.
So until the infant takes its first breath, it’s not an actual soul. It is a lump of tissue with potential.
I hope that there are as few abortions as are absolutely necessary, but I will not begrudge a single person their choice to have an abortion regardless of the stage of the pregnancy at which it happens.
Yes but abortion procedures are not unique to Jewish doctors. Egypt, China, India, Rome; all of them practiced abortions both medically induced and surgical.
Internal (diffusion of gases from the bloodstream into the tissues of the body) respiration =/=external respiration (diffusion of atmospheric gases through the alveolus into the bloodstream)
And respiration is only half of breathing, the other half being ventilation.
Don’t use science to put someone down when you don’t even understand what you’re talking about

More like 32 years.
Never for some…
Waiting to be alive any day now
Oh, you mean I get to have some brain activity soon?
I go by the Jewish rule.

It’s part of the mother according to Jewish law.
Is this one reason why Jewish doctors were historically the only ones okay with performing abortions?

Respiration still occurs through the umbilical. You shouldn’t use sky fairy tales for scientific bases.

It would seem turning the other cheek isn’t part of your religion.

Nah man, religion kills people, still, today. It deserves a bit of derision.
But once again, the point was not religion, it was a stance on abortion.
Kind of frustrating that the moderator I’m assuming removed my remarks, but still.
Logic is typically lost on the feeble-minded. I’m aware you are around us. Believe what you want, but it should play zero role in public policy.
Also, public policy should ensure nobody goes hungry.
Alas, that’s not the legal definition. Another reminder that legal is not necessarily ethical, and vice-versa.
Bible says life begins at first breath.
Nathan, is that you?
PS: To anyone who hasn’t yet, I can highly recommend watching the TV show Nathan for you
