You will not find the word 'wrong' in my comments simply because that is not my stance. And I have answered on 'responsibility' and if you can't see that then that is your problem not mine.

You give a balanced answer. I would agree that whatever is the scientific determination of 'human being' then an abortion prior to that could not classified as 'murder'. However, I would take the stance that a fetus prior to the 'human stage' still possesses life, that is, the fetus is alive and should be allowed to develop.

My comments already answer that...but here you go again back on the 'one side' the person who is pregnant. I haven't mentioned any form of punishment but you obviously equate taking responsibility for one's action with punishment. Sad.

Very sad indeed. My condolences. What is the % vote in the US Congress to change the Constitution? Does it have have to go through The House first or is only the Senate involved? The UK has had laws against carrying weapons although in the past that didn't really stop people acquiring pistols etc.

Ha ha, blame??? Moral??? It's about men and women taking responsibility for their actions. Abortionists want to shirk their responsibilities and get the state to endorse it. It was you who laying the blame on women and I called you out on that. Take responsibility for your mistake and move on.

Nothing rhetorical about it. But you have done precisely as I thought you would simply one sided. What about the father? It takes the two people to produce and the father can be just as irresponsible about his actions as can the mother. My earlier comments are not aimed at just women but men too...

How do you define 'unwanted pregnancies'?

I am pro-life (and not religious) but with conditionals you mention. How often does one see a comment about Thai people not taking responsibility for their actions? Yet when it comes one's own country, the principle seems to get lost. If a person doesn't want children then they shouldn't play 'Russian roulette' with their body.

Probably things have changed but I took E.R. @ 50 y/o but the company I was working for told me to me write to the UK Pensions office as soon as I got settled. I did just that and received info that I would receive another letter informing me of the calculated % I would receive at 65. Also enclosed was a form for me to complete (address bank details etc.). After a while I received said info which also included the starting date of the pension. A few weeks before the starting date I received notification and my pension was deposited into my Thai Bank account. I receive a certificate of existence once a year (same for company pension) which I return by Registered Mail when completed. (Company pension accepts a PDF of completed form which I send by email.)

Well, the US certainly has gone down this week against the GBP but that could be due to a non-UK reason.

If this second hand doll cost ฿25,000 I wonder how much the AI companions will be...I've obviously lived a very sheltered life, ฿25,000 for a sex doll!!!!???? Geez

My condolences...six people in one accident...tragic. The ladies that were their late 50's...I wouldn't call that 'old'.

The additional problem with Methane (CH4) is that it has something like a ten year life span, in the atmosphere. Although it eventually decreases by reaction we are probably releasing more than enough to compensate. Although deep mining (coal) releases much of the Methane, open surface mining (metals) does too, to a lesser extent. (Building homes, large business structures is a 'double whammy'. Not only releasing Methane while preparing foundations, concrete/cement release CO2.) And while many reports mention livestock as emitters of Methane, we humans produce and release methane gas too. The methane is produced by bacteria (methanogens) in the gastrointestinal tract. But it seems that just how much is produced in a person depends fitness, diet and other factors. So there you go fellas, expect a Methane Tax anytime now, Ha ????

For me, it was the IO that suggested I change from marriage to retirement. Probably because it's less work for them too...much easier for both parties and less time at the counter.

Like many other things I doubt if they will set up an agency to regulate it. If it's going to be anything like 'regulating' (policing) the traffic then...you know what I mean. My guess is that the workers will get little aid but the the Taxman will be thinking 'shall we tax per ฿1000, by client or by service performed'...Wonder if VAT will be added?
