“The person who claims that what is inside someone else's body is property of the state is definitely wrong.” Absolutely agree. Never argued for that.

But saying you can’t be against abortion because you can’t use your religion in an argument is hypocritical.

I’m all for volunteerism, but does the child volunteer in abortion? Your religion says it isn’t a child and therefore doesn’t have a right to live. Other religions say its a person and therefore its murder. See the impasse?

So I say so what if people from different ideological and religious backgrounds find their own meanings in Bitcoin. Does that not lend to the objective nature of Bitcoin to be able to accomplish something like that?

You see, are you not doing the same as you are accusing me of doing? And all I did was present an argument; I never forced anything upon you. Law is law, and your religion determines what that is does it not? You think my law is braindead, but your logic is as subjective as mine.

This is the beauty I find in Bitcoin. Tick tock next block, the system works as intended, you can have all your opinions on it but that doesn’t change the thermodynamics of it.

You see, we’re at an impasse. What I call murder you see as removing a part of your own body. How can we prove who is correct?

If the fetus is an animal then there is no issue. If its a child then its murder, which has no place in any society I would argue. The crux of this question is a religious one. According to the bible life starts when there is blood, which is something like 8 days (don’t quote me idk) into the baby’s life. If you reject blood as the symbol of life then idk man. Point is whether a libertarian can or cannot support abortion depends on where he draws the line on when the baby has the same right to life as the mother.

Problem with this view is you’re forgetting the other two parties in abortion - the father and the child. Anti-abortion argument centers around justice for the child. Sure the woman and the doctor may consent, but if you believe the fetus has the same right to consent then there is an issue.

You said “You can be any of those things in private, but bringing it to the Bitcoin party is a foul.” And then just said you’re open to discussing different opinions. So I am confused by your original point.

To say there is no provable truth is in and of itself an argument of what is true. And who by expressing and sharing their views is forcing them on others? Arguing and discussion is a volunteered effort is it not?

I bet at some point the Ethereum developers will decide to delete tokens held beyond a certain time limit in non-staking wallets for “deflation and to prevent hoarding” or some stupid crap like that.
