actually i think by the very words super+natural, the fact that most humans can't sense them would mean it is supernatural for the ones that "can". like superman has superhuman strength. not because he talks with ghosts or some metaphysical somethin or other but because he has strength that surpasses normal human abilities. that's what the 'super' in a front a word means. so a super natural sense would be a greater than normal sense. right?
just because a zygote has a chance of dying doesn't change anything. if you seriously cannot see the difference between a sperm/egg you are completely insane. life is a continual process, but whether something is a living organism is not. it is a simple yes or no question. a sperm is not a unique living organism capable of carrying out the functions defined as "life".
nevermind i'm not wasting more of my time on such a complete fucking moron who believes in magic uteruses and vaginas.
no it won't, how do you think sex works? that a sperm just goes into the body and becomes a baby? how fucking stupid are you? a sperm inside a woman won't magically start absorbing nutrients and grow and divide. a zygote will, although not by magic but by pure fucking science. if a sperm doesn't join with an egg then it "dies" and then breaks down and is absorbed into the body (or is ejaculated onto a hookers face) it doesn't start growing a baby in your nutsack.
there are only two logical points where a non-human mass becomes human: "magically" when a sperm and egg COMBINE into a new cell with full dna, unique from the mother's cells, and the ability to undergo normal life processes of a cell, and when a mass "magically" gains sentience. anything else is actually relying on some sort of magic; humans are not on a continuum of humanity. one person is not more human than another. therefore there has to be a "magic" moment where something non-human becomes human. you can't just decide it, it has to be a definitive and logical point in time. that's how it's different than picking an arbitrary point. you just try to pick the point so you can see embryos and fetuses as non-human but still see babies and retards as humans. you're trying to eat your cake and have it, too. and when did i ever bring God into this discussion? i'm trying to be scientific about this. is that the only argument you can make? to try and bash religion?
what does 'reasonable level of brain activity' or pain have to do with declaring something sentient? a crow probably has a reasonable level of brain activity, it's not a person. a pig can feel pain, it's not a person.
NO they certainly do not have the potential to become human. if you put a sperm or egg in optimal living conditions, it will not grow and divide and become anything other than a dead sperm or egg. an embryo will grow and become a fully developed human. if you can't see the difference you are completely fucking retarded. what do you believe anyway? that a mass of carbon, hydrogen, and etc passes through a vagina and magically it becomes human? does this non-human mass pick up magic "humanity dust"? how scientifically sound is that? sounds completely ridiculous. you either have to believe a human forms when an egg is fertilized by a sperm, or a human is formed when an organism gains sentience(which leaves out retards and babies). those are the only two logical views.
not really, i guess you skipped biology in high school. embryo are more human than my sperm. sperm are not complete cells. yes they are formed from human cells but they are just sperm. half of a cell. when a sperm joins together with a egg, it creates a complete cell. it is human because it has all the DNA which is needed to classify something as human and it is a functioning biological organism. sure it's not developed, and people might say it's no more human than a skin cell is, but that is a matter of personal view. but sperm and eggs are not complete organisms.
but besides that, retards aren't self aware, can i do science experiments on them?
"thou shalt not kill people that post on slashdot" isn't in the bible either. what's your point? can retards feel pain? can we kill them? what about people in comas? sleeping people? what about a 1 year old baby? what if we use a painless method of killing? and these issues are not "need-to-know" or "critical" or else everyone would be dying. why sacrifice one life that isn't fucked up to say a hypothetical future life that will likely be born messed up? why not just kill of all the messed up babies in the first place?
how is what you said different than saying "jews are not people, and only qualify as 'human' by virture of DNA they contain. So, please tell me, why is this morally wrong?" or "blacks are not people, [etc]"?
i never said unnatural meant wrong, it's just that most people try to say homophilia is natural and therefore right(ie. those penguins at the zoo were 'gay' so that means it's science!). using a computer is unnatural and that is harldy in and of itself wrong. but who are you to say someone beating their step-children to death is wrong? it's only wrong because people fear death of themselves and their close ones. to stem the tied of everyone killing each other, and therefore living in fear of our own lives and the lives of those we cherish, it is 'wrong' to kill. but anyway, so unless someone is a minority they can't create a guild on sensitive subjects? so can someone create a pedo-friendly guild? or a beastiality guild? why bring that kind of stuff into a game world?
i can't see how that is flamebait. just because it calls out the fact that homophilia isn't "natural"? wow, nice overreaction there slashdot. do pedophiles not have a choice? that guy that died because he had a horse sodomize him, did he not have a choice? was it so dominant in his mind that he just had to let a horse sodomize him until he died? no.
and if someone created a "straight guild" or a "homophobic guild" would people have problems with that? yes, of course
redundant array of independent disks array! redundant indeed. can you use this if you have a nic card? oh, and don't forget to keep your pin number and ssn number safe!
what the fuck are you talking about? how can it make me feel uncomfortable? how am i a republican just because i think you're a douche for spouting off this shit? if you want to bash bush, good go ahead. but do it somewhere else like a political forum. there is no debate here for me to join because this is just lame offtopic bashing; and why the FUCKING FUCK would i pray to washington you cumsucking twat(oh and i get teh ossam 'metaphor' that washington d.c. is my mecca, but oh wait i hate washington)? your post brought nothing to the discussion it just made such insightful generalisations like "george dubya bush lies". wow, really? thank God you told me or i wouldn't have been able to figure out that our nation has no one in politics worthy of being president.

that's some allusion you got there!
Being "guilty" isn't equal at "having the ability to feel guilty about the action"
yes, 'guilt' is equal to 'having the ability to feel guilty about an action performed' aka mens rea.
if we take away the emotional and psychological damage of rape, does that lighten the charge from rape to assault and battery?
