So when an adult is unable to carry on the process of life, it should be discontinued.

You keep forgetting an adult had been born. Birth. Quite the event.

There was no misunderstanding.
It was your words and you're the one who posted them.
You've been looking silly for so long; that it while it would be refreshing, your system probably couldn't handle the shock of logic.![]()
If it replicated, an organism had to be formed, because inorganic material doesn't replicate. Whether it continued to carry on the process of life, is academic. If it had the ability to replicate, it met the requirement, however brief the moment. You again admit that "it quickly expired" but how can something "expire" that isn't alive? If something "can start dying" it has to be alive, it is impossible for something to die that isn't alive. When something organic becomes no longer able to sustain life, it is dead, and I have not argued that point... still, that point does not mean that something which died was never alive.
Yes, I did, to explain to you the importance of birth. It is a government registered event. Now, mind you, I can definitely understand an event leading to conception can be, shall we say, earth-shattering but usually only to those immediately involved.![]()

Yes, the egg was alive. So was the sperm. You confuse "life" with "human being". Whether we talk about a liver or a rose they're both "alive" but neither one is a human being.
As for "If it replicated, an organism had to be formed" is where you're mistaken. An organism does not necessarily form because......you know the answer.....it is defective. Defective, as in not being able to carry on the processes of life, meaning it's not an organism.
Seriously, you are truly embarrassing yourself. Having a defect that causes death does not change whether or not it is human. It simply doesn't. It can be nothing other than human. Some people with defects are born. Many are not. ALL are human. As long as they are alive, they are a human being.
The stupidity in the above has gone beyond the 1/3 discussions stupidity. All fertilized cells are not human beings. All human ovum that are fertilized by human sperm ARE human beings. Just because something is defective doesn't change what it is. Using your car analogy: If one car comes off the assembly line with a defect that causes it to not work... is it still a car? Think long and hard on that moron.
In NO way have you falsified my argument. You have simply proven to the board beyond a shadow of a doubt that you have NO understanding of genetics.
ROFLMAO...
1) Can we or can we not tie DNA to a SPECIFIC human being?
2) With genetic mapping, we CAN determine who is more susceptible to certain diseases.
LMAO... who gives a crap if it is a 'government registered event'??? What the hell does that have to do with ANYTHING we are discussing?
If it replicated, it carried on the process. You are confusing "living organism" with "living cells" here. A sperm and an egg, are individual cells, not living organisms. They are 'alive' temporarily and can not carry on the process of life. By 'alive' it might be said they are 'active' instead, to more adequately illustrate this to you. They are not "living" but are germane, for a short period of time, and as a direct result of the host. If their purpose is met, the two cells merge and fertilization takes place. If fertilization is successful, an organism is produced, and that organism continues to grow and replicate until it dies. There is no case where fertilization is successful and no organism is produced, if nothing is produced, there is no successful fertilization. If any replication takes place, even just one cell... it is a living human organism for that moment, regardless of what happens to it after that. If it is defective, it may not continue to be a living organism, but that doesn't change what it is before it dies.
Yes, the egg was alive. So was the sperm. You confuse "life" with "human being". Whether we talk about a liver or a rose they're both "alive" but neither one is a human being.

As I noted in msg #205 it has to be able to carry on the processes of life. If the cell that replicated resulted in producing something that could not carry on the processes of life that means an organism was not formed. It's not "as long as it's alive". Many things which are alive are not human beings. Maybe try looking up the definition.
Is a car a human being? Please, stop being a jackass.
Anti-abortionists want to jump on the scientific bandwagon. Fine. Let's all jump on it and we'll see the scientific bandwagon says a human being has to qualify as an organism and an organism has to be able to carry on the processes of life. That's it in a nut shell or fertilized egg, if you prefer. Unless and until something can carry on the processes of life it is not a human being. That is the scientific definition.
Now, anti-abortionists say all fertilized cells are human beings. However, if a particular fertilized cell can not divide properly that is proof it is not capable of carrying on the processes of life. There is absolutely no proof those cells contain all the necessary ingredients in order to qualify as an organism so it's patently absurd to assume 50% of human beings die within hours of creation when one doesn't have a shred of proof regarding the make-up of those cells.
I have shown you have no understanding of what constitutes an organism. Neither you nor anyone else has any idea why 50% of fertilized cells spontaneously abort. Neither you nor anyone else knows if those cells contained the necessary components to be classified as an organism, yet, you and your ilk insist on sticking your respective noses in every woman's pants by insisting they are/were organisms when no one has any proof, whatsoever. It's really rather disgusting.
Most times. It appears you forgot the case where "experts" swore on the Bible a woman's biological child was not her biological child. They didn't know a person can have two sets of DNA.
Gee, who would have thought scientists could make a mistake.
You talk about embarrassing oneself. Barely a decade after genome mapping and you think we know it all.
We know sh!t as far as genes go. We don't even know how many there are, for gawd's sake. We know, maybe, a handful and we have no idea how that handful interacts with each other. We're just starting to discover a defective gene reacts differently depending on from which parent it was received and we have clowns such as yourself wanting to restrict the rights of half the population based on nothing but ignorance.
It has everything to do with it because some smart ass asked for the exact instant a birth took place and I explained it was a process. It is expelled from the body. The umbilical cord is cut. The birth is registered so people know a birth took place.
ROFLMAO, indeed! I'm betting it will be shown anti-abortionists are the descendants of court jesters.![]()

As I noted in msg #205 it has to be able to carry on the processes of life. If the cell that replicated resulted in producing something that could not carry on the processes of life...
There is a period of time between the cell being fertilized and the division occurring. It has to be fertilized first. Now, the cell may be fertilized but can not divide properly because.....again, you know the answer....it's defective. How defective? We don't know but for one to say a fertilized cell is a human being is reaching into the next galaxy.
It's the same as you wrote about sperm and eggs. "They are 'alive' temporarily and can not carry on the process of life." It's reasonable to conclude that, at the very least, some of the 50% that spontaneously abort fall into that category which means not all fertilized cells are human beings.
The egg and the sperm are both cells. The liver cell is just that. When taken from humans they are all human cells. When the egg cell and the sperm cell COMBINE, they form a unique human life. Period. Your complete lack of knowledge on genetics is pathetic. A third grader knows more than you. Which is why you are so ignorant when continually comparing the egg, sperm, liver to a fertilized egg cell. You are not intelligent enough to grasp even this most basic of FACTS.
The above is pure nonsense. You are simply grasping at straws. Something having defects doesn't change the fact of what it is. Period.
Yes, it does. A defective group of cells not able to carry on the processes of life is not an organism.
