Brain is just a nerve bag that makes decisions.
I'm strictly pro foetus killing, in case that makes it seem otherwise. Just think that's a poor rhetorical device.
Boobs are just fat bags that milky milky. But they've got soul, baby.
While this statement is true, what is also true is that the brain is the only organ we're unable to fully understand, replace (as in through organ donation), and it's what makes us sentient. This is why Row v. Wade had a specific fetal age up until which abortion is permitted. That age coincided with the age at which the brain is developed and the fetus becomes a child which could be delivered. Most of the red-state laws are restricting abortion after the heartbeat can be detected.
All I am saying is that it makes perfect sense, from the biological point of view, why the heart is one of the first major organs to develop: it's main job is to deliver nutrient-rich blood to all other organs so that they can develop as well. But despite that, its not the heart that makes us human, it's the brain.
I was raised around those good old traditional values like "do what you're told" and "a woman's value is caring for a family." Once I started thinking for myself and asking questions, I still struggled with all the "but they're killing living babies!" idea. Then one day it occurred to me - we don't determine death by when the heart stops, why would we decide it starts just because we hear a beat? Brain death determines death, wouldn't an appropriate level of brain activity determine life? I let go of a lot of baggage that day.
Yet plenty of people with brains and hearts are subhuman pieces of filth
There is never a good reason to say 'subhuman filth'. All of our problems are human problems.
Including your apparent meth abuse.
Methyl is CH3 groups - I did a graduate degree in biochem and feel proud of my achievement tyvm.
Edit- ironically I chose not to be ethylman (without the first m) because I thought it made me sound like a proud alcoholic 🤣
So if you're educated, consider giving the book "Becoming Evil" a problem.
All of our problems are human problems, and talking about other human beings - no matter what they do - as "Subhuman" is a problem in and off itself.
Always open to advice - Thanks
Thats not goodness, that's narcissism!
