Comments by "Matthew Loutner" (@Matthew_Loutner) on "A look at Trump's IVF comments and Harris' reaction" video.
Human right to life is a Constitutional rights issue. Life, liberty, the pursuit of happiness. The Supreme Court adjudicates the Constitution. The "law" about it is already passed by the legislature. It is called the United States Constitution.

@squirrel670 Having babies does not "ruin people's lives." Not going to college ruins people's lives. My mother raised 5 children being divorced. She was able to do that because she had a good paying job. She never once suggested that any of us children "ruined her life." We WERE her life (and still are). You can come up with a more convincing lie than "children ruin their parents lives."

@squirrel670 Having children DOES NOT "ruin people's life." Children are most people's reason for living. Every (normal) person wants to have children and raise a family. And women are more enthralled with that idea than men are.

@squirrel670 For one thing, your (supposed) logic is circular. I am not talking about people who demonstrate that they do want children and later claim they do not want children, and later after they get them, they go on about how they love their children. That is not a definition of "not wanting children." A person who is classified as "not normal" is a priest who chooses to never get married because he chooses to dedicate his life to serving God. Another possibility of being "not normal" is a person who is sociopathic or has autism. These people do not always have the necessary emotions to get married, have an adult level relationship, and raise children. So they make a decision to never get married. These are people who make a quality decision that they are "different" and they do not want to start a family. Normal people do want children. If someone has intimate relations with the opposite sex, that is proof that they are normal, and it is proof that they want children. If they did not want children, they would avoid the possibility of having any. I did not "insist" on anyone having kids. That is fake, twisted logic. It is simple to avoid having children without murdering them. You just do not get married.

@squirrel670 By circular logic, I was referring to the individual you were talking about. Not the argument you were making. That person's thinking is circular. He is wishy-washy, does not know what he really wants, and he is taking his life in circles. His own logic is circular. But you tried to use that as an example of something more concrete, as if he knew determinately what he wanted. He doesn't.

@squirrel670 Society is hemorrhaging. Aspirin is a blood thinner. Teaching sex education to a child is the equivalent of giving aspirin to a hemorrhaging victim. Then after you have caused them to get grangegreen, you want to cut off their arm. It reminds me of Dr. Bones on Star Trek.

@squirrel670 Of course it is not worth the risk. If you do not want children at this time, do not engage in sex. Come back and do it after you are married and financially stable. As far as knowing whether you "liked the meal," you will not know whether you actually liked having children or not until they are grown and out of the house and have their own children. There is no way to know when you are "ordering," and there is no way to know when the waitress sets the food on the table. No one "aborts" a meal without tasting it unless they have suddenly gotten sick and have to leave the restaurant.

@squirrel670 I have never met anyone who regretted having grandchildren. Anything is possible. But I have never met or heard of any.

@squirrel670 If a girl is single and having trouble paying her bills, she should be living with her parents. If a married couple is having trouble making it, they should be getting help from parents on both sides. There really are no excuses. You are grasping at straws. For every objection you raise, there is a suitable solution. No one should be engaging in sexual intercourse outside of a safe, stable, marriage relationship. And married couples usually discuss when they want to have children and use birth control. No normal person believes that having children is not worth the risk of whether you will like the child or not. Your position is an abberation. And you still have the problem that there is no way to know in advance that you could not take care of the child.

@squirrel670 It occurs to me that you are opposed to loss and suffering, and that is forming a large part of your opinion. Not having children will not relieve your life of loss and suffering. Loss and suffering is a part of life and it will find you one way or another. You cannot hide from it. Your best bet to avoid loss and suffering would be to go be a hermit in a cave somewhere. But you will still be lonely and miss your friends and family. And your family will have the greater loss if you do that. One cannot avoid the bad parts of life. But in trying to avoid loss, you must also give up all of the blessings that you would have had. Hermits literally give up their entire future. People who abort babies do also. That is not how people are supposed to live. You are supposed to embrace the challenge and make something beautiful out of your life.

@squirrel670 There is no argument and there is no debate. These are the facts: One cannot perform an evil act and expect to get a good result. God will not allow it. This is the first command in the Bible from God to mankind: "Be fruitful and multiply." Even using birth control is a violation of the first command.

@squirrel670 God has all the power and is holding all of the cards. Whether you believe in Him, He is going to make His decision and do whatever He decides to do. Whether I believe in Him, He is going to make His decision and do whatever He decides to do. What we believe has nothing to do with what God does. And I am telling you that He will not give someone a good reward for doing an evil action. Even you should be able to see the logic in that.

@squirrel670 You do realize, of course, that if a woman has an abortion, she will never have the grandchildren.

@squirrel670 Well teaching sex education in school to little children does not actually reduce abortions. It encourages promiscuity, which leads to many, many more pregnancies, and thus more need for abortions (and more lives ruined). What would reduce both pregnancies and abortions would be for the government to stay out of things that are not any of their business, and leave the parents to do the parenting. I would be okay with classes for the parents. American society is literally falling apart and your very dumb government cannot figure out that they are the ones causing the downfall (assuming, of course, that they are not doing it deliberately).

@squirrel670 You are referring to Numbers chapter 5 where the woman drinks a certain herb and her belly swells. There is nothing about abortion in that passage.

@squirrel670 Okay. God punishes wanton sinners. Are you making a point? That passage should make you think of what is happening in Palestine.

She slipped and called him "The President." 😅😂🤣 Freudian slip.
