I don't know, but I get this strong feeling that you follow Jordan Peterson or Ben Shapiro. You do, don't you? XD I listen to them sometimes.

I'm a bigger fan of Jordan Peterson instead of Ben Shapiro, but I pay attention to what they have to say.

Crawling in my skin
These wounds, they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing what is real
There's something inside me that pulls beneath the surface
Consuming, confusing
This lack of self control I fear is never ending
Controlling
I can't seem
To find myself again
My walls are closing in
(Without a sense of confidence I'm convinced
That there's just too much pressure to take)
I've felt this way before
So insecure
Crawling in my skin
These wounds, they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing what is real
Discomfort, endlessly has pulled itself upon me
Distracting, reacting
Against my will I stand beside my own reflection
It's haunting how I can't seem
To find myself again
My walls are closing in
(Without a sense of confidence I'm convinced
That there's just too much pressure to take)
I've felt this way before
So insecure
Crawling in my skin

Fear is how I fall
Confusing what is real
Crawling in my skin
These wounds, they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing, confusing what is real
There's something inside me that pulls beneath the surface
Consuming (confusing what is real)
This lack of self control I fear is never ending
Controlling (confusing what is real)

Something that I apparently really should specify:.....because some people just do not get it.
This deviation is meant for anybody who does not understand my now fully-restored self-confidence in my writing (albeit, it was still often a reasonably major amount of self-confidence to begin with despite the occasional absurd self-doubt that I was struggling with).
Just to be clear, the main reason why I do not care at all about the idea of me being the one aborted is because someone else would have accomplished my achievements for me, particularly my accomplishments in writing fanfiction.
Even if I were aborted, somebody else would have created the Boddy Brothers, most likely with different names. Somebody else would have created their backstories, most likely with only slight differences. Somebody else would have came up with their powers, abilities, skills, outfits, weapons, gadgets, and armor, most likely with at least a few differences. And somebody else would have came up with what their actions and choices would be, very likely wit

SionnaDehr In reply to ZekeEugene [2018-02-04 02:14:11 +0000 UTC]
Well, that answers my last question at the very least.
As far as your points displayed in the Deviation you linked me to:
A zygote, gamete, embryo, and early-stage fetus are unique in that they have the potential of becoming fully formed humans. At the early two stages they do, actually share common attributes with us. 1) DNA and RNA. 2) cellular replication. The idea that they are not human is absurd in the scientific sense because they, clearly, share those basic human attributes.
Now, to answer your question:
No, I do not think you, or anyone, should be aborted. Other reasons to that were explained earlier, as you read, but if we’re going to get to the core of my beliefs then no I will never think that.
I would also like to apologize for being snooty. As you can imagine I am asked that question a lot and rarely get a response from others that is as thought out as yours.
I think about the subject of abortion a lot. My thoughts still lean heavily pro-life (of course), but the more I think about it the more I believe the opposite of your conclusion in regards to the pre five month mark. Medical necessity is a different case and I’m inclined to agree with you strongly on that front from an ethics standpoint.

ZekeEugene In reply to SionnaDehr [2018-02-04 04:28:28 +0000 UTC]
Fair enough.
But there's a difference between potential human and an actual human being. They are NOT the same thing, and they are NOT equal.
And DNA, RNA, and Cellular Replication are completely irrelevant. What matters is sentience, which gametes, zygotes, embryos, and early term fetuses do NOT have.
So therefore, I do not see why it would have been a problem if I were aborted.
Nonetheless, I am glad that you are civil about your beliefs.

I try
At this point in time our science is limited on the subject. The question is a moral and an ethical one. Depending on one’s views the definition of morality and ethics is entirely subjective. It’s why people have a hard time being civil on the subject.
If we must have it, ethically it is better to abort as early as possible. Morally, i, as well as many others, still view it as terminating a human life as a child in any prebirth State is still a human being by its relation to us genetically if not physically. Each day of growth gives them more physical attributes similar to ours. Morally, I see it as our duty to protect the rights of our species (race or whatever, I’ve been writing about elves and humans all day, so bare with me lol) at any age.
Unfortunately, it’s a subject that might just have to remain contentious until the science confirms or denies it.

ZekeEugene [2018-02-04 01:11:07 +0000 UTC]
I honestly do not understand why it would have been a problem if I were aborted.
Because in early-term, the zygote, embryo, and early-term fetus are NOT sentient.
Also, in late-term, even though the late-term fetus is sentient, the ONLY three times where late-term abortion is legal and morally acceptable are these three cases:

SionnaDehr In reply to ZekeEugene [2018-02-04 01:35:16 +0000 UTC]
In response to the first part of your question: because you are still a living human sentient or not. Where men and women who are brain dead are no longer sentient and need use of machines to keep their bodies alive a zygote, embryo, and early-term fetus are not part of the category. Also, unless there are some serious complications regarding the mother’s pregnancy in the first term, there is no reason for her to abort other than reasons that the mother should have foreseen in the first place. This starts with the fact that, whether preventative measures are taken or not, when a man and a woman engage sexually with each other there is a chance she will conceive. As a certain amount of personal responsibility *should* come with sexual intimacy on behalf of both partners I believe it is ridiculous and absurd to give them an out for something they should have known would happen in the first place. Of course this doesn’t apply in certain circumstances (infertility, homosexuality, and perhaps a woman who is transsexual), but that is my personal belief on the matter. As the law defines things differently, clearly it would be more ethical to abort before the five month mark than after when we can reasonably guess, based on what we know scientifically, the child is likely sentient. At the least we know it can feel pain and at that stage the only way to abort it is to cause him or her pain. That isn’t right and it certainly shouldn’t be pushed for the reason “it’s her body”. Because the life inside of her arguably isn’t her body and any understanding of how her body functions naturally would assume that sex eventually causes pregnancy. If she can’t figure out whether she wants to keep the child or not by the fifth month then she should give birth.
As for your other points, seeing as they fall under “medically necessary” such an argument with me is pointless because I already make such allowances in my own personal views on the matter. Abortion is a medical procedure and should remain a medical procedure. Women shouldn’t use it as s form of birth control. It’s ridiculous and probably not the best idea given that ending pregnancy at any term causes certain hormonal, psychological, and physical stress on her body that might actually cause infertility for any number of reasons (Doctor is an idiot, her body actually can’t handle the stress of a particular procedure and the uterine wall is damaged, her hormones become imbalanced, etc). Abortion should be used for the purpose of saving the mother’s life and/or terminating a pregnancy where the child is no longer living and/or won’t be alive for much longer.
As for your last question, as I have no idea who you are or why you would want to be aborted in the first place (if that is why you are asking?), I can’t actually answer that other than to point you in the direction of my previous comments.

Sorry for the misunderstanding. I do NOT want to be aborted, but what I mean is that I don't see why I should care if I were aborted or not.
Thank you for being civil about your opinion.
And if you want to know who I am, I am ZekeEugene. I am Pro-Neutral when it comes to abortion.

That’s an interesting stance. Haven’t heard the “pro-neutral” term before but I guess it makes sense.

White Genocide Through ImmigrationThe great question is who benefits out of the current mess the Western world is facing?
In order to understand we need to look at the political actors, their allies and ongoing
processes. First let's analyze the politics that have been applied to our Western countries.
1) Mass-Immigration.
2) Forced Integration.
3) Clash Of Civilization.
Mass-Immigration:
In America:
In 1924 President Coolidge signs an immigration act to prevent radical Jewish Bolsheviks to enter
the country as well as to keep unemployment under control after the first world war. It also served to
maintain the ethnic balance of the country, which today is protected by international law.
President Coolidge signs the immigration act
with former WWI general Pershing at his side.
Jews nonetheless pushed for open border policies i
