I get you @JTB and others might too but they don’t want to express it because of peer-pressure and whatnot. Lol
Common sense, logic, truth and no bias.What is there to get?
Common sense, logic, truth and no bias.
Yeah, I’m not gonna repeat the arguments on what @JTB has said over and over for like 10 pages.And how does that relate to the killing of the unborn?
So if beleive that the laws on the books which make murder a criminal offense am I being biased?

Thank you.Common sense, logic, truth and no bias.
I did not read anything logical except, stating that both Dems and Repubs are bad which is not a logic argument, what does that have to do with the murdering of unborn babies.
Confirmation bias is not applicable to this topic the science and scripture are both clear it is a human life.
What I have read is highly illogical and conflating two separate discussions.
Well, you chimed in and now you cannot defend or at least make an argument for your post.
Leaves me to believe you and @JTB are really just arguing from emotion and not facts, cause if you had facts you would present them.
Exactly and you show a lot of patience and energy here and God bless you but I feel like it’s not worth talking to anyone who’s too biased on the liberal or conservative side.Silence doesn’t mean the person quits, it simply means that one doesn’t want to argue with people who just don’t want to understand.
Some believers see the Bible as the word of God, the ultimate authority, and "thou shalt not kill" as being written in stone.And how does that relate to the killing of the unborn?

Other people think that these are "nuanced" issues. Yes, the Bible says that homosexuals and fornicators are sins of the flesh, but they are more progressive in their thinking. The Bible says an elder must be the husband of one wife but they see that as sexist and narrow and archaic. Likewise, some see the Bible condemning abortion as a sacrifice to pagan Gods like Molech and Baal, but they see this as involving the liberation of women from the shackles of a OT God.
The way I see it, either Jesus is Lord or you are Laodicea, you have kicked Jesus out of the church and you are doing whatever you want regardless of what the Bible teaches.
Yes, both sides are equally guilty.
I've said that many many times here as well. But since the red juice drinkers don't want to believe their side is guilty of it, they assume that makes me a libtard. News flash ... I didn't vote for senile Joe, and I think Pelosi should be in jail right beside Hillary and Trump. But since I now included Trump, his supporters will believe I support Hillary and Pelosi, in spite of what I just said.
THAT is the problem with confirmation bias, and it is a BIG problem in the discussion of all issues, not just abortion.
Have a great 4th my friends! It could be the last one we celebrate.
No my dear, you just think that if someone isn't parroting conservative sound bites they're talking liberal. That's a sure sign of bias.No, the issue is you use liberal talking points then swear you're not liberal. You didn't have to vote Joe to be liberal. Obama didn't vote Joe, I guarantee you that. Neither did a lot of other liberals.
I sat here for an hour last night trying to come up with a response because people do in fact deserve facts. But the deeper I dug the more ridiculous it became.I understand your opinion what you have not once given is the facts upon which your opinion is based.
And you still conflate the morality of murdering unborn babies with politics and the social welfare programs.
It has nothing to do with "confirmation bias" that is just your scapegoat for not backing up your claims with facts.
Unless you are born into wealth, or are born a Sheldon Cooper, you will live your life working 60+ hours at two jobs, be unable to afford health care, much less housing that isn't the size of a shipping container. Or a retirement. You won't be takin vacations.
I sat here for an hour last night trying to come up with a response because people do in fact deserve facts. But the deeper I dug the more ridiculous it became.
I started out to make the argument that pre-natal care is important. I googled is pre natal care important and there were numerous articles and studies that showed just how important it is. But then I thought well no duh this is so obvious one shouldn't have to quote studies and articles to back it up. It's just a given.
Then I wanted to show how over the last 30 years the average joe has lost the ability to afford that kind of healthcare. And again there was article after study showing how in the last 30 years executive compensation has skyrocketed, along with health care costs, while average Joe's compensation has remained flat or even declined. And again I had to conclude that having to fact check the painfully obvious was again, really unnecessary.
Then I wanted to point out how it is the conservative lobby that has spent the last 30 years stripping workers of pay and healthcare and retirement and vacations while giving tax cuts and incentives to the already rich. And again, there are a myriad of articles and studies that form a long list of facts supporting that. And again, I had to question is it really necessary to illuminate the obvious?
Than I came to the conclusion that those who need these facts laid out in front of them clearly aren't paying attention, and that I could spend countless hours appeasing them and they still would have no interest in taking an unbiased look at it. And I came to the conclusion after that hour that I was just wasting time casting pearls before swine (no offense intended).
It's not the facts you need, those are clearly available if one wants them. It's the bias that says anything that doesn't confirm what one already believes isn't worth paying attention to.
