    RationalEgoistSG got a reaction from sdesapio in Abortion   
    Semm,

    Your entire post was rambling nonsense.


    YOU posted in this forum. YOU made the claim that abortion is illegal/immoral. And therefore it is YOU that must demonstrate YOUR position on this issue.
    Here is an analogy of the argument you have made. God exists. I have no proof for this claim, but you must disprove the claim. Since you cannot, God must exist.

    This is a logical fallacy, the appeal to ignorance I believe.

    When one claims a POSITIVE the burden of proof for such a claim is on the person who made it, NOT on other people to disprove your arbitrary claim.



    A is A, Objectivism is Objectivism. Objectivism is the philosophy of Ayn Rand. If you disagree with Ayn Rand on any philosophical point, you are not an Objectivist. You may still have a lot of agreement with Objectivism, but if you disagree with the philosophy you cease to be identified properly as an Objectivist. This says nothing about the philosophical accuracy of her philosophy. This merely says that Objectivism is the philosophy of Ayn Rand. Either one agrees with the philosophy of Ayn Rand or one does not. It is really that simple.

    According to Objectivism, the philosophy of Ayn Rand, every woman has the right to an abortion. You claim that no woman has the right to an abortion. Therefore, you are not an Objectivist. This has nothing to do with whether or not a woman ACTUALLY has the right to an abortion. This simply means that Objectivism says they do, you say they don't, therefore, you are in contradiction with Objectivism. It is really that simple.

    The rest of your post is utter nonsense, which I see no need to respond to again.

    Semm, please check your ridiculous premises, gain a knowledge of what Objectivism actually is, learn what logic is, and then you will have a chance at rational discussion.

    I would suggest that you do not post on this topic any longer, or on any topic on this board, until you can demonstrate that you have ANY idea of what logic or Objectivism is, thank you.
