    96%... CONSENUS!

    Bottom line, the abortion debate should not be about whether or not a fertilized egg is human. It should be about the legal issue of when the unborn human child should be granted basic human life protections. Is it from day 1? After the heartbeat is detected? Sentience? Birth?

    As seen in the article above, even the biologists who knew the correct answer scientifically still had urges to demean the question as they thought it would hurt their position on abortion.

    Quit denying science. Admit the progeny is human. Then get on with the legal debate.
    Interesting read, thanks.

    Yes, most of us with any kind of education in the biological sciences know that the zygote is alive in the sense that the cells comprising it engage in biological processes. This has nothing, really, to do with abortion.

    Don't go there. It's not a site you would touch with a ten-foot pole.

    I wish it was easier to be pro-life. Why do so many have to complicate things on all sides? It gives me migraines.

    This is a definitions issue that has taken on political tones. It has nothing to do with any theory of science.

    This is a debate about a definition. It has nothing to do with any theory of science.

    I read the article. I agree that it is a very biased site.

    Thanks for reminding me that I'm overdue to send PP of Greater Columbus another donation in your name. They really appreciate your dedication to further their mission.

    For Republicans life starts when the guy pulls out.
    They are concerned till the baby is born.
    As soon as born,then the baby is told to go fuck their self!
