If I remember correctly, in the Metaphysics Club that Trey started a while ago he has a set of Debate Rules, and that the first rule is that you must agree on the basics before you can debate the rest of Philosophy. This seems to be what we have going here. Don’t get me wrong; I’m thoroughly enjoying this. I don’t get enough good discussion like this every day. But I think we’ve reached the point where no one is going to concede, because our basic beliefs oppose each other.
I mean, we all believe that life begins at conception, and that based on that fact, we all have concluded that abortion is wrong. But our view of government (Where, you will remember, this discussion spawned from. Thank you, Trey!
) is where we differ, along with a few other basic points in the discussion. So can we keep having this debate? I’m not sure. But I think Trey’s rule applies here. Just a thought.
I think it’s time for more pictures of cats wearing cute, knitted things and looking annoyed:

I have stayed out of all the debates, and I am not about to get involved at this point (you know how I feel about debating and discussing politics), but I want to take a moment and thank zach for these ridiculous cat pictures. In fact, my roommates and I have put the website on our list of de-stressors for the semester.
But, in the interest of fairness, I feel obligated to share this other site: http://www.stuffonmymutt.com/. I just want to provide some equal representation among the animal species, albeit the cats are a tad funnier.
Marie, I apologize for leaving out such a great species from this page! Thank you for alerting me to this inconsistency.
