Why don't we start by making birth control easier to obtain and by having "Right To Life" groups signing contracts to adopt the children no matter what infirmities the child has and no matter what race the child is?
Hi thanks for taking the time to engage with our channel! Adoption is absolutely something we should be pursuing and committing to; we couldn't agree with you more.
Thank you for taking the time to watch, and share your opinion. Since it seems you're interested in engaging in this conversation with us, we'd love to share why we believe this is a conversation not to ignore if you're willing to listen.
That's what my ancestors said to the northern abolitionists about the "choice" issue of the 19th century. So do you agree with them that whether or not someone in 1850 Tennessee chose to own slaves was no one else's business?
Dude, politics and religion need to stay out of personal choice. It is truly sad that as a species some of us still refer to bronze age storytelling as a means of navigating morden day issues. If a woman do not want a child due to a number of reasons if that child is unwantedly brought into the world that child can be subject to a number of traumas for the sake of pleasing a bunch of religious extremists!
Thank you for making the personal choice of taking the time to watch, and share your opinion on our decisions. Since it seems you're interested in engaging in this conversation with us, we'd love to continue the dialogue if you're willing. May we ask- where do you believe we get our sense of ethics and morality from?
@@CBCMansfield thanks for your reply, I believe that our ethics and morals come as a result of our evolved consciousness driving us to do minimal harm and for preservation of our species. I believe these constructs came from a lot of trial and error!
@@kelvinhooks9399 hey thanks for replying back! We're always interested in conversations so it's exciting when someone engages; we appreciate your time. Ok, thank you for sharing. Since what we're ultimately getting at is the question "what is truth and where does it come from" we want to make sure we're fully understanding your position and giving you every opportunity to share. Do you believe there are ethics and morality that are universally true for all peoples across time (and could therefore be applied to people in the past or should be expected of people in the future)?
@@CBCMansfield I like to thank you again for getting back to me. I really enjoy this topic, I find it to be somewhat therapeutic but also productive for our society. Regardless of belief (which I'm a none believer) there are things that I have noticed that changes over time and ethics and morality are definitely things that have changed for us (humans) throughout our evolution. If you notice how we are a more tolerate society, we are more inclusive now than we were in years past. We have become less rugged then we were just 100 years ago due to advances in technology but we have grown smarter. We seem to loss some attributes but gain others. We have a bible that presented a deity that didn't speak against slavery and misogyny but we have to a degree gotten away from this mindset but we still have a ways to go on those matters and some others. The deity of the bible seemed to be just as primitive as the men that wrote the words. I believe that if we were in charge of writing the bible today it would be totally different. Sorry if I veered off subject a bit. I look forward to hearing back from you! 🙂
@@kelvinhooks9399 Thanks for a thorough answer; so then is it fair of me (and if not, please correct me), to understand that since you are saying ethics/morality have evolved over time, there are not universally true and applicable morals for all people at all time? (and then I promise I'll share what I'd say in response to that, as well as reply to some of your other points and observations).

I can prep you on how to talk about abortion even faster than that: "Mind your own business."
