@John_C_87
Well, I don't quite follow John_C.
Though I was actually challenging the author to explain what life was, so that we could establish a fundamental starting point to the issue of abortion.
I wasn't questioning the potential and status of a fused gamete.
Law is established by a subjective authority, not necessarily with total regard to all the factors that affect not only species procreation, but also life as a universal principle outside the remit of human authority.

Bro D is Bro D.
And their attitude is not to be taken to heart.
In so much as Bro D is Bro D.

No time or inclination for serious debating Bro.

As you seemingly do not know what life is.
How can you conclude that one mass containing life has more significance than another.
I think that it's fair to suggest that arguments that do not start at the beginning, cannot be resolved.

Nope. Bro D isn't a keen debater.
And I agree, "tons of possibilities".

Well, such is interpretation.
Though in the commonly held story, Jesus was supposedly born of Mary, though not necessarily of Mary.
And Joe was supposedly not involved in a gametic fusion process.
And "Since they were married their flesh became one" is sermonic hocus pocus. Though whether they were married or not is also open to speculation.
And "Of David" is similarly rhetorical, though not factually provable...Can you trace your lineage back a 1000 years.
So the tale is a mix of possibility, probability and fantasy.
Mythological in other words.
Like, I am of the line of Arthur...Prove me wrong.

The respectable population are the moderates.
Basically, those that decide elections.
And those that think that they are heroes, are sadly deluded.

Do you think that you are representative of a majority voice in the U.S?
And what is the alternative to a government led country?
Well, either no government or another government.
Though eventually no government would become another government anyway.
The ensuing interim chaos would make for great entertainment.

A. We could force our women to wear black shrouds and kneel on a rug 5 times a day muttering in reverence to the GOD known as Dart.
Or:
B. Let women choose what they wear and what and where they mutter.
Seemingly. Dart isn't a popular choice.
One would therefore conclude that Dart is a man thing.

A character in a fantasy novel can only save the lives of fellow characters from the same fantasy novel.
You're getting fact and fiction all mixed up Trade.
Which isn't to say that fantasy characters do not inspire real people to do stuff.
So, I haven't surveyed a whole lot of life savers, but I'm guessing that people are likely to want to save drowning children irrespective of fantasy literature.

When you get to 63 you will realise that something has been deceiving your mind for past 53 years or so.

Experience informs us of the factional nature of such people.

Awareness is likely to inform one that there is more than one of something and memory will allow one to remember this fact.
So it's likely that awareness and a memory of quantity occurred prior to a corresponding symbolic or pictorial account.
Though scratching rocks with rocks or earth with sticks was probably a very early practice.

Yep, we can appreciate the functionality that life affords us.
We can differentiate between living structures and non-living structures.
And human specialism will inevitably result in human bias.
But what actually is life?
And from an unbiased perspective, what is the difference between the life within a plant and the life within a human being?

I'm not sure that quantification is a necessary requirement of effective vaccination.
One either accepts the efficacy of the smallpox vaccine or one doesn't.
Thereby inferring the efficacy of vaccination as an effective therapy against contagious pathogens.
So, another question.
What is the purpose of the Big Vaccination Conspiracy?

Anthropomorphic
Nice word, though not necessarily my contention.
My contention is that GOD as a representative label is fine and commonplace though does not necessarily require accompanying human characteristics.
Though what constitutes human characteristics is open interpretation I suppose.
Nonetheless, tales of an actual floaty about magical bloke, won't cut the mustard as far as I am concerned.
Which isn't to say that actual floaty about blokes are not a reasonable hypothesis.

Logic tends to slap one in the face.
Or not as the case may be.
So, simple question:
Why did Edward Jenner bother?
Or was he the founder member of the Big Vaccination Conspiracy Club.

Any relative hypothesis can be described as GOD.
As GOD principle is sound.
And GOD is a common label.
Alan is also popular.
And collapse and rebirth can be numerically represented.
But will anything be counting?
Atheists tend to be less accepting of mythological hypotheses wherein Man simply invents GODS in the image of himself.
Atheists do not necessarily dismiss the GOD principle.
Theist/deist is generally used to describe a believer in one of various popular MANGOD inventions.
Though an atheist could be regarded as a deist, in so much as the definition of a supreme being is open to interpretation.
Whereas theists often have an accompanying book.

If I'm not mistaken, you guessed that Covid was the same as Flu.
So in my opinion, a virologist would be the best person to either confirm or deny your guess.
Though I'm guessing that you're also guessing that all virologists are proponents of the big Covid conspiracy.
Created:

@Lemming
True.
After a while, physical existence might seem mundane and arduous.
Simulating an alternative can relieve the tedium and induce temporary euphoria.
Self induced euphoria is better than chemically induced euphoria.
Though continued reliance at any level can be far more detrimental than a mundane existence.
Perhaps it's better to remain mundane and content.

@Athias
My guess is Covid is just the flu renamed.
Now, who am I more likely to listen to?
A. Sadolite
B. A Virologist.
Well, if I have a preoccupation with conspiracy theory then probably Sadolite.
And from a non-conspiratorial point of view I would suggest that the reduction in the effects of the Influenza Virus is perhaps a lot to do with VACCINATION.
Q. Why has life expectancy doubled over the past 250 years?
A. Definitely not luck.
And Sadolites fellow trypanophobic Athias (just jibing), is still alive, because( in respect of the Covid virus) the chances of still being alive are far greater than not.
Nonetheless, prevention is better than cure as those conspiring health professionals would have us believe.
Stay safe Guys.
