Should performance-enhancing drugs be allowed in pro sports?

Round 1

I think abortion should be illegal except for the case in which the mother will die if she doesn't have an abortion. Every baby is made in the image of God and killing it simply because you don't want it is on you. You shouldn't have sex if you aren't ready for a kid because anything should happen. And if you think lots of people die if they don't have abortions that is not a valid argument because 0.3% of abortions are because the mother will die. the other 99.7% is elective for other reasons that they should have considered

So we're really out here pretending that letting athletes juice up is about fairness? Look, I get the appeal of the "let them do what they want" argument. Jigma11 hasn't even made it yet, but I know it's coming: "adults making their own choices," "better entertainment," "medical supervision makes it safe." Sounds nice in a vacuum. But this isn't a vacuum—it's pro sports, where kids are watching and the pressure to win is already insane. If you allow PEDs, you're not creating a level playing field. You're forcing every athlete to choose between doping or falling behind. The guy who says no doesn't just lose—he's out of a job. That's not freedom, that's a coercion machine. And the "supervised by doctors" angle? Come on. We can't even get normal injury treatments handled honestly. You think a doctor is going to stop an MVP candidate from taking something that pushes him to the next level? Sports are supposed to show us the limits of human potential. Not what happens when we chemically cheat those limits.
