Comparing abortion to crimes like theft, rape, or murder removes the mother from the equation, which is the most critical factor.

Crimes involve one person acting against another:
- Theft: Person A steals from Person B.
- Rape: Person A violates Person B.
- Murder: Person A kills Person B.


Abortion, however, is a decision a mother makes about her own body, often under extreme circumstances, including cases where her life is at risk. It is not about violating someone else's body or property.

Stopping a thief has nothing to do with abstract beliefs. People act or don't act based on immediate risk and circumstance, not moral philosophy. Most people won't risk their lives for strangers in floods or disasters, even if they believe that "all life is precious". Survival comes first.

That distinction matters. Unlike crimes, abortion allows time for reflection, intention, and medical considerations.

If abortion is murder, then self-defense would also be murder. Yet we don't see it that way because intention matters. Self-defense is not murder unless there is intent to kill.

So the real question is this: Are mothers choosing abortion intending to murder?

Practically none do. Most experience pain, grief, and conflict, even when the pregnancy is unwanted or medically dangerous. Biology and psychology make this far from an easy choice.

Abortion only becomes murder if intent to kill can be proven—just as in existing laws. Otherwise, it is closer to survival decisions recognised by both law and religion, such as the real-life «Alive» case, where people ate the dead to survive and were not punished.

Good intentions don't excuse stealing because stealing harms someone else. A mother choosing abortion is not taking from another person's body or life in the same way.

So the comparison is not accurate.

Re: Don't eat rice when in places like this! (Buffet)

CORRECT! When you're in a buffet, never eat rice or rice cakes.

In a buffet, or catering, pick the healtiest food you can find and eat only those. That's how you'll get more than you paid for.

Buffet restaurants love it when people eat rice and rice-based food, as well as, less healthier options. Why? Because those are more affordable and customers will get full faster. The ones on the losing end are the customers because they didn't "break even", and even if they do, the customers only forced themselves and will more likely feel the effects later.

Buffet or catering = only eat the healthiest food available, repeatedly. That's how you get more than what you paid for.

---

Of course, there's nothing wrong with eating rice, if that's what you really want. But we generally eat in buffet restaurants for the unlimited food and experience at an affordable price. Something we normally can't do at home or in other places.

LOL. I knew the rice won't get cooked correctly when they decided to add more water.

Here's the thing with rice, if you add more water late, it's game over. It's better if you don't add any. Or, use the rice to cook another dish.

Noooo! You'll be missed, Daniel!

Thank you for the laughter you provided. 🙇🏽

Apologies, but it is people like you that is making everyone else who reads the same Bible—even if they don't share your beliefs and interpretations—look bad and hated.

1. Yes, it is your right. But did you produce it? No. Did you invest in it? No. Were you in any way involved in the creation process of the show? No. Then your right doesn't apply in this case. You are only an audience.

Yes, yes, you can complain. But at least get your complaints correct.

2. Sex before marriage … doing it for your pleasure

Woah. Hold your horses down! It was very obvious that the mother did not do it for her own pleasure! The father was obviously a who just wanted to get under her pants then left her. She was a young teenager who didn't know any better.

And even if she indeed did it for her own pleasure, so what? Who are you to judge anyone who wants to have sex outside of marriage?

You want to drag "Christ" and religion?

- Your "Christ" said that if you undress a person in your mind, you're committing sin already. That it is no different from doing the deed.

Are you telling the world you never did that? Or, not doing it anymore? Are you really really sure about that? Not even in your dreams? Not even innocent wishes?

Can you categorically say "NO, I haven't undress anyone in my mind ever, not in my dreams, not with innocent wishes"?

- What's your stand on a man having multiple wives (a.k.a. poligyny)? You'll probably say it is a sin.

Well, let me break it to you, you will never find a single verse disallowing polygyny. What was disallowed was polyandry (woman with multiple husbands). In fact, there are verses supporting polygyny.

Have you truly read your holy text?

- What is your stand on eating pork and unclean animals?

If you're going to say that "Christ" abolished that law, well, once again you're categorically wrong. This "Christ" never said nor imply anything about abolishing the Food Dietary Laws, on the contrary, He reaffirmed it strongly.

Oh, and don't cite Peter's dream because Peter himself explained that his dream has nothing to do with the Kosher Law. Peter knew people will misinterpret his dream.and use it to justify eating unclean animals.

So, again, did you really read your holy text?

---

If you are going to drag the Book compilation called the Bible, and religion, make sure you can defend your beliefs and interpretations. If not, then don't drag it.

Trust me, the more you truly understand this "Bible" the less you will act the way you have acted.

Do you know why LGBTQ is fine in Israel? (Although not yet SSM.) It's because they understand their own holy text. Their holy text is part of the "Bible". Don't tell me you know better than them? Them, the "Chosen People"?

People who confesses they read the "Bible" and still imposes their belief on others, are actually people who don't know anything about the "Bible". Your "Christ" never taught to impose your beliefs on others and to act the way you just did. It's very clear you don't know anything about your own G-d.

I think that's pretty much all of it?

I hope it helped!

Again, those were based only up to E12. The last two episodes are 4 days away when I wrote this.

1. She had a very traumatic experience. She was ordered to drink poison after she was accused of infidelity. Leaving her young son, the 2ML, alone in a very ruthless place.

2. She had no idea the Minister had plans (assuming he revived her or toned down the poison).

3. In modern Science, brain cells starts to die by the 4-minute mark. Then permanent brain damage starts to spread by the 9-minute mark.

It is highly possible that it took the Minister 9 minutes before he was able to give her the medicine to wake her or counter the poison. (He can't just take the body, for example.) So, when she came back from the dead, there were already permanent brain damage here and there.

4. She did not show any recognition and reaction that she is not in the palace.

5. She thinks the one she's holding is her baby (the 2ML), yet when the camera panned, what she was holding were only blankets rolled together to make it appear a baby. In modern times, they're given a baby doll.

6. The Minister lamented that she will never come back to him. He understood that her brain was damaged.

7. The Minister did not acknowledge that there is a baby. A sane person would. It hints that he is aware it was just empty blankets rolled to look like a baby.

8. The baby did not make any sounds or showed movements.

9. When she tried to give a letter to the 1FL, it was a hint that she still had moments when her sanity returns. Maybe she still does and is pretending because she learned the cruelty of her "friend".

10. In modern Science, we learned that when humans experience traumatic events, our brain can choose to enter self-preservation mode. The former queen, as mentioned earlier, experienced a very traumatic experience. This could've led to why she's stuck in a her nursing days and why she isn't recognizing that she is not in the palace.

Basically, her brain is protecting her from reliving that veri traumatic experience by making her believe everything is okay and that she is just in another part of the palace, with her son. Remember, her last vision was her son holding her as she dies. That's very traumatic for a loving parent, especially for mothers.

Q: Is it possible that there could be twists?
A: Of course. But they'll probably keep it to a minimum since there are only two episodes left.

If they make the former queen's fate more complex, it will dominate at least a single episode, leaving less roomto tackle the two main plots: the Minister, and the fate of the 1ML and 1FL who has been reincarnated multiple times because forces kept on separating them. (It's like Fate got tired and said, "You know what? I'll intervene and make sure they finish their love story in this life, I don't want to see another season of these two.")

Q: What if the baby is real?
A: Then that's a huge scandal. And even if the 2ML is truly the son of the murdered king, and that baby is a new baby, it will still likely end up requiring death or exile for the former queen, her status won't be reinstated either, and the 2ML will have to choose between giving up his rank and status to be with her always, or, keep it a secret and can only visit his mother occasionally and in secret. It is much better that the baby isn't real.

Q: What if the father of the 2ML is the Minister?
A: An even bigger scandal that will likely result in wiping out the entire clan of the Minister and the former Queen, including the 2ML.

Q: What if the 2ML and 2FL are half-siblings?
A: Same as above, they'll likely get killed because it proves that the former queen was already pregnant before she was married to the king. The queen mother will definitely be very happy about it because her suspicions turned-out to be true.

Q: But what if the 2FL was adopted?
A: It's possible. The second couple still have a chance to be together. IF the 1ML and the his father can protect them. Because again, if these secrets come out, lives will definitely be taken, the Minister most especiallyi and his entire clan.

Q: What if the former queen was faking it?
A: It is possible. In the 1FL's flashback, the former queen (although she had no idea who she was) handed her a letter which the guy guarding her immediately snatched back. If she was able to write that, either she still has episodes of sanity, or she is indeed faking it. The former queen probably also knew who the 1FL was and she intentionally handed her the letter—again assuming she has episodes of sanity or is faking it.

Re: The Lady in White (a.k.a. former queen, a.k.a. mother of 2ML)

Just to gather all information in ine place.

If you have questions about it, then check below.

Nope. The fake baby is not symbolic, the former queen is mentally stuck in a time period when she was still nursing the 2ML.

The hints were:
1. The Minister said she'll never come back to him. He understood that she's mentally unstable.
2. The former queen did die but later came back from the dead.

In modern Science, we know that if a person is clinically dead, brain cells start to die by 4-minute mark. Then by the 9-minute mark, permanent brain damage starts to spread.

If we consider the rituals and slowness of palace in treating people who were ordered to drink poison, it probably took at least 9 minutesto get her body somewhere away from prying eyes. By that time, whatever medicine the Minister gave her, it was too late, permanent brain damage already set in.

3. The former queen was not acting like a sane person. She did not recognize nor react that the place she is living is not her home nor the palace. As far as her brain is concerned, she is either in her home or some place within the palace walls. Her own mind is tricking her as a self-protection mechanism—this has been observed in people with very traumatic experiences.

Speaking of very traumatic experiences, her drinking the poison without knowing that the Minister has plans to save her, was a very traumatic experience, probably one of the worst there is a human can ever face, especially a mother leaving a young child.

Thus, her brain is potentially tricking her as self-preservation so she won't remember her very traumatic experience.

LOL! That's the best description I've read recently, and from a kababayan at that. 😆

- The murdered king, the son of the queen mother, is the husband of the 2ML's mother, which made her queen. A.k.a. The Lady in White.
- The current puppet king's wife / queen is the mother of 1ML that the 1FL was accused of assassinating.

The baby is fake.

- It wasn't moving
- It wasn't making any sounds
- It's covered entirely
- The Minister did not acknowledge that there is a baby - a sane person, especially if it is their kid, would acknowledge the presence of the baby

What she was holding was more likely her getting stuck in the time period she was nursing the 2ML.

Recall that she was poisoned. She was also under duress because she knew she'll be ending her life and she will leave the 2ML alone who was still a kid.

But, it turns out she survived and returned from the dead.

In modern science, we know that if a person is clinically dead for at least 9 minutes, permaneet brain damage sets in. Brain cells starts to die at 4-minute mark.

Considering how long it took them to move the former queen's body, she was probably clinically dead between 4–9 minutes. By the time she returned from the dead, brain damage already did its worst.

Maybe the Minister gave her a low dosage. Or, maybe, he gave her a different herb that mimics death but it requires they be revived, and it took him time to revive and hide her. = Brain damage.

Again, this is only based on what they have shown us up to Episode 12. They could suddenlymake a twist that there is literally a live baby in that scene. Or, the former queen was faking her condition because she learned how dangerous her "friend" is.

Take for example the letter she tried to hand to the 1FL when she accidentally cross paths with her. A person not in their right mind wouldn't write that letter and knowingly and desperately give it to someone. She probably knew who the 1FL was. But the guard snatched the letter so fast, her plan failed.

Wait until you watch E11 and 12. The 1ML even made a joke about "the body switch is useless" in a period way. 😜

Yeah. The 2ML seeing her mother alive is going to be blow to him, and he'll probably hate the Minister even more.

The baby she was holding wasn't real. Notice how the baby isn't moving or making sounds, and how it is entirely covered. The Minister also knew so he didn't act like there's a baby.

That fake baby is the result of her coming back to life after being clinically dead too long. It damaged her brain and jumbled her memories. At least from what we know so far, she got stuck in the moment when she was nursing the 2ML.

As to who is the father of the 2ML, at least what was established was his father was the murdered king, the son of the queen mother.

If the former queen was already pregnant before she got married to the murdered king, it appears that only she knows. Not even the minister is aware of her secret since the Minister is ready to kill him. As far as the Minister is concerned, the 2ML has the eyes of the former queen, so he's trying his best not to kill the 2ML.

However, if the former queen was indeed harbouring a scandalous secret, we can only hope it never gets exposed. The normal, at that time, reaction is to wipe out the entire clan of the minister as well as the former queen, including the 2ML.

But there are only 2 episodes left, so if there is indeed such a secret, I don't know how they'll cram yet another new twist in two episodes.

Exactly. Even if different people share the same beliefs and convictions and standards, it doesn't mean they have 100% similarities in that belief.

Like in this case, one doctor might feel uncomfortable with recommending abortion. But another doctor, who share the same belief, is fine recommending it.

I wouldn't call it tolerance, because that means it is indeed wrong, rather it's knowing that our personal beliefs are our own. We can share it, but it shouldn't be imposed. Again, like in this episode, the hospital staff made the process, or lack thereof, so that the teens won't get an abortion.

It's possible the former queen have some bits of memories. It could explain why she was trying to escape. She even accidentally met the 1FL in one of her attempts to escape.

He's not. The 2ML's father was the murdered king, the son of the queen mother.

Unless of course the former queen hid the fact she was already pregnant, and no one knew the truth other than her—not even the minister.

And that's going to be a major scandal. The entire family of the minister, the former queen, and the 2ML, will be killed for that. The queen mother can just watch as all the other ministers demand wiping them all out.

It's an old info when I was reading about the discovery of penicillin. There are many interesting herbs, some were thought to be poison but if you process it correctly, it turns into medicine. Or, if you combine with another, the potency goes down and you can then use it for other purposes.

The world of herbs, poisons,and medicines is very fascinating.

Haha, true. Ironically, the same can be said with modern governments. 😅
