Reply to the charge of "anecdotal"...
Yes, the article is based on an interview with a group of college activists that use "anecdotal" evidence, IOW, they walk around and talk to other college students and gain their opinions. You know, like when a pollster calls you on the phone, and asks if they can ask you a series of questions...The difference being that it isn't a scientific poll
Not only is it not scientific, it's pointless. Anybody can claim anything and for someone to simply believe it without any evidence is asinine.
.... Plus the fact that those progressive liberals in here that are attacking me, and the OP based on that rather than actually discussing the subject have already LOST the debate.
There's no subject to debate. You posted something which is a waste of time to discuss and those of us who are rightly pointing out how ridiculous the "source" you're basing your thread on is doing the only type of discussing which can be done.
They show themselves as either in agreement with this type of Murder, or they don't want any light shed on the disgusting lines of thought that are promoted by their peers on college campuses these days.
I asked three college people I knew if they believed in abortion until age 5. All three said no.
Thus, I have now completely proven your source 100% wrong. I expect an apology and a retraction.
Then you have the first poster to my OP, Slyfox....A misleading screen name
Nothing is misleading about it, especially considering the origins of the name. Of course, you don't know anything about that, but not knowing something obviously doesn't bother you.
designed to make people think on first glance that he is a mature adult
I'm an adult mature enough to know not to believe something from obviously biased sources.
I was hoping to bring you up to that level.
and often posts in inflamatory style, using common methods of snark, and self conceit to project that people must meet his standard of posting
Yup. I do demand a certain level of intelligence and rationality when I debate. Those who are unable to meet said level of intelligence or rationality do not deserve anything more than what I give them.
if it is not in agreement with his progressive ideology
Nothing is progressive about my "ideology". I've had those on the left accuse me of being a conservative and those on the right accuse me of being liberal.
Then like a child he resorts to supremely childish retort, baiting, and insult.
Umm...you posted "anecdotes" from an obviously biased source who provided ZERO evidence to support their claim and you expect an in-depth response? To quote you...how dumb is that? :doh
Oh so clever, in a 4th grade kind of way....right folks?
In my defense, I had to come up with something which would be understood, since you obviously don't understand how ridiculous your "source" was.
In his usual ego driven, passive/aggressive style
How can I be inflammatory, snarky, conceited, ego-driven and passive/aggressive at the same time? It's like you can't even keep your insults straight.
he wants to give some "friendly advice"? Hmmmm...Friendly advice from a progressive that can't even tell the truth about that on a public forum
I've told the truth. I'm not a progressive or a liberal or a conservative or any other simple term. Unlike you, I can process information without trying to simplify it to a "left" or "right" decision.
Then he moves directly into attacking the source, an ad hom fallacy
No, it's not a fallacy to point out a lack of concrete or scientific evidence from a biased source.
How about you spend more time researching what fallacies are before you erroneously insert them into conversations?
This is just the usual tactic from people like him, that will at first chance go running off to Mod mommy or daddy after they display the worst of character....So easy, they are.
What are you talking about? I don't have a mother or father who moderate anything. Furthermore, and to address the point you so horribly were trying to make, I'd roughly guess 80-90% of the posts I report have nothing to do with me. I know I don't suffer stupidity or foolishness well, so I don't blame people for getting upset when they debate me.
But, this thread wasn't supposed to be a steaming pile
But it is all the same. You post an article from a source which provides no evidence except "anecdotes" from an obviously biased source, all to further your objective of trying to cast everyone who doesn't believe exactly like you do as evil.
Your thread was a steaming pile from the get go and for you to complain now that people have accurately pointed out the absurdity of the basis for your thread is asinine.
that is just the kneejerk reaction of liberals and progressives when they can not defend or talk about their agenda's that are exposed.
Says the person who posted an obviously BS article and exposed their agenda.
By the way, didn't you hear? There's a new study out now which says NOBODY believes it is okay to abort a child at the age of five. All three people I asked said it wasn't, so you are obviously posting in response to old information.
Please acknowledge you now believe my study just as you believed the one before. Thanks.
I am saddened, and shocked at the people, the real people that would hold such a viewpoint, that it is fine to kill a 5 year old, and even try to call it "abortion".....
I am saddened and shocked there are people who still believe anything they read on the Internet.
I mean think about it people....We all have sons, daughters, nieces, nephews
Yes and the idea some of them are so willing to believe a bunch of BS saddens me greatly.
