"IF you’re so big on local decision making, then you shouldn’t have a
problem if Roe is overturned. You shouldn’t be against local
governments expecting all medical facilities to meet some minimal
standards. You shouldn’t have a problem with all our patient medical
facilities being expected to have admitting privileges at hospitals.
Do you support those common sense measures?"
"Are you referring to Biden’s attempt to allow
biological males unfettered access to bathrooms and locker rooms which
have previously been reserved for biological females?"
I'll grant that you attempted to answer the questions above, although you simply did not answer the question as asked. You essentially, said that you only support local decisions as long as they agree with your political views. Clearly, the fact that you had to qualify your response, instead of simply address the items asked about, indicates that your support of local decisions is not as unlimited as you claim. If it was, then you'd support the repeal of Roe.
"In what sense? Do I support the family in deciding where to seek pre
natal care? Yes. Do I support the father of the child having an equal
say in decisions about the child he's fathered? Yes. Do I support
underage children having elective surgery without parental consent? No.
Do I support the decision of "the family" to end the existence of the
life of a unique human being based on what's convenient?"
"Do you support that "higher authority", addressing the harm to one group, by choosing to inflict harm on another group?"
" Do you understand that by giving biological makes the choice to use
whatever restroom or locker room they choose based on how they feel,
that you are removing the choice from biological women/girls to feel
uncomfortable changing or showering with biological males? Can you
explain specifically why the "rights" of an incredibly small group of
biological males override the privacy rights of women/girls?"
" In the case of the 2020 violence, do you realize that you have now placed
the blame on the local governments of the Twin Cities, Seattle,
Portland, Louisville, ATL, DC, etc., all of which are (and have been for
decades controlled by the political left?"
" Why are you so obsessed with this being decided at the federal level,
NOT at the state or local governments you claim to be so enamored with?"
"1. Doesn’t the fact that you have to add a qualifier to the term
woman simply point out the reality that biological men aren’t women?
2. Are you suggesting that scientific disciplines such as biology and forensic medicine are not science?"
" If by society, you mean the governmental entities that control the
city/state/country where the oppression is occurring, then why wouldn't
you be all for wholesale replacement of those in power who are actually
doing the "oppressing"?"
" Please provide one actual example where police simply walked up to
"peaceful protesters" and started shooting rubber bullets at them with
absolutely zero provocation."
"Really? Are you sure you want to stick with this hunch of yours?"
"Can you explain specifically why the "rights" of an incredibly small
group of biological males override the privacy rights of women/girls?"
"re these experts really suggesting that biological men who have
undergone extensive alterations in their quest to appear to be women,
are 100% indistinguishable form biological women? Are they suggesting
that the forensic science that can identify bodies years after death,
will identify these biological males as females"
"If you show a podiatrist the x-rays of the foot of a biological male,
and a biological female, the podiatrist would likely be able to
differentiate between the two with a 90+% degree of accuracy, does that
medical expertise help prove your hunch?"
"If a surgically altered
biological male, and a surgically unaltered biological female were both
being treated for the same form of cancer, would a medical expert give
them the same dosages of the same medicines?"
"How many medical professionals would diagnose a surgically altered biological male with cervical cancer?"
"Would
a medical professional be able to distinguish between a surgically
altered biological male, and a biological female using objective
testing? (X-rays. blood work, etc)"
"You still haven't explained why you think the metaphysical is more real and reliable than the physical?"
" The question then is, which is the more reliable metric. The physical or
the metaphysical? Do we really posses enough understanding of the
human mind to say with confidence that what we think is more real than
what we are?"
" The bigger problem is that this whole notion clashes with those who
believe in a materialist/Darwinian worldview. If one accepts that the
"mind is a computer made of meat", or that matter is all that there is,
then how does one diminish the material in favor of the immaterial?"
" One has to wonder why, if those differences in the physical, material,
biological, body are so insignificant why so much effort is expended to
remove or alter them?"
" The question is then raised, what makes something a "female body part"?"
"For
example does skin, a nipple, and a bag of silicone actually become a
breast? Or does an actual breast require all of the component parts of a
breast?"
"Does surgically removing the penis, cutting a "hole" in
the body, and refashioning part of the penis into something that gives
sensations similar to a clitoris, turn into an actual fully functioning
vagina, or is it a less capable substitute?"
"Are things like bones, brains, muscles, lungs, DNA and chromosomes considered "body parts"?"
" Where, (quote and link required), have I ever made a scripture bared
argument in this thread? Or anywhere else for that matter?"
" Why would I ask people about your claims?"
"Why wouldn’t the burden of proof be on you for claims you’ve made?"
" Why wouldn’t the burden of proof be on you for claims you’ve made?'
" At what age is a person mentally, emotionally, and physically at the
point to determine if they are prepared to make permanent surgical and
biological alterations to their body?"
"If a trans women (presenting as a man)has cancer, should the oncologist prescribe the dosages intended for a male?"
" You realize that you’re arguing for the elimination of women as a unique biological and legal category, don’t you?"
"That
these laws being imposed on the 98.58% (I know you claimed that nothing
was being imposed on anyone) actually render the current protected
classes of women and homosexuals meaningless, don’t you?"
"One of the proudest achievements of the political left had
been Title 9 and the positive affect it’s had in women in sports and
education. Well, if you can’t identify what a woman is, how does one
extend legal protection to that which can’t be identified?"
" Do you realize that your "question" is essentially an unproven claim of fact, disguised as a question?"
" Are you suggesting that it is "WRONG/IMMORAL/UNJUST" to imprison ANY
consenting adult for ANY sexual activities, or for "falling in love"
with ANY other adult who reciprocates their feelings?"
" Are you suggesting that you know better then the experts?"
" Do you realize that the Bible DOES specifically condemn stealing? Do
you realize that you have argued that there are cases in which stealing
is appropriate? Are you saying that IF the Bible DID specifically
condemn "being a transgender person" or "gay folks getting married",
that you would change your position and align your position with what
the Bible said? Does this mean that you align your position on issues
100% with the Bible when it contains clear, direct, unambiguous
condemnation of behaviors or actions?"
" Do you believe that God encourages (applauds/blesses/allows/cheers on/approves of) either of those?"
" Are you seriously suggesting that cutting of perfectly functioning body
parts and replacing them with semi functional facsimiles is not self
mutilation?"
" Are you seriously suggesting that cutting of perfectly functioning body
parts and replacing them with semi functional facsimiles is not self
mutilation?"
" If a woman (after “transitioning to a man) was admitted to a hospital
(checked female on the admitted documents), is the hospital required to
give “her” the drug dosages for a female or for a male? If it’s the
female dosage, is the hospital liable for malpractice?"
" Hell, there’s a worldwide organization dedicated to furthering gay statutory rape, but no harm done there, right?"
" Are you seriously saying that an 8 year old had the ability to make an
informed decision about undergoing medical procedure that will take
years, make irreparable changes to their bodies, and make them even more
different?"
" Do you agree with Biden? Do you think that an 8 year old has the
capacity to make an informed decision on a medical procedure of this
magnitude? What other medical procedures are 8 year olds capable of
informed consent to undergo?"
"Which raises the question. If a woman undergoes extensive surgery to
fashion her vagina into something that resembles a penis, does it
magically become (on a cellular level) a fully functioning penis,
indistinguishable form the penis on a male?"
"If it’s not all about penises, why is surgical alteration necessary?"
"FYI, if sex and gender are unrelated, then what scientific principle declares that “gender” is infallibly correct?"
" What harm did I ever claim there was?"
"Are the Bison and penguins involved in loving monogamous relationships, or are they promiscuous?"
"Wouldn’t that mean that only promiscuous homosexual sex is good?"
"Of course, the implication in this I’d that penguins and humans are morally equal, how do you prove that?"
