    Default Abortion

    I'd be interested in hearing any credible science that suggests that an unborn is anything other than a human being at any point of development

    Black's Law Dictionary 9th edition, Person: A human being.

    Nealis v. Baird, 996 P.2d 438, 453 (Okla. 1999) “Contemporary scientific precepts accept as a given that a human life begins at conception.” (citing KEITH L. MOORE & T.V.N. PERSAUD, THE DEVELOPING HUMAN 14 (5th ed. 1993); SUSAN TUCKER BLACKBURN & DONNA LEE LOPER, MATERNAL, FETAL AND NEONATAL PHYSIOLOGY: A CLINICAL PERSPECTIVE 49 (1992); MICHAEL R. HARRISON ET AL., THE UNBORN PATIENT: PRENATAL DIAGNOSIS AND TREATMENT 14 (1984); DALE RUSSELL DUNNIHOO, M.D., PH.D., FUNDAMENTALS OF GYNECOLOGY AND OBSTETRICS 286–99 (1990)

    "an unborn child is a human being from conception is “supported by standard textbooks on embryology or human biology”
    T.W. SADLER, LANGMAN’S MEDICAL EMBRYOLOGY (John N. Gardner ed., 6th ed. 1990.

    "The exact moment of the beginning of personhood and of the human body is at the moment of conception."
    M. Allen et. al., "The Limits of Viability." New England Journal of Medicine. 11/25/93: Vol. 329, No. 22, p. 1597.

    "Physicians, biologists, and other scientists agree that conception marks the beginning of the life of a human being—a being that is alive and is a member of the human species. There is overwhelming agreement on this point in countless medical, biological, and scientific writings." John C. Fletcher, Mark I. Evans, "Maternal Bonding in Early Fetal Ultrasound Examinations," New England Journal of Medicine, February 17, 1983.

    "Not only is it a life, but, by its intrinsic biological nature, it is a human life from the moment of conception, for “it can be nothing else.”
    E. BLECHSCHMIDT, THE BEGINNING OF HUMAN LIFE,]16–17

    " A zygote is the beginning of a new human being. Human development begins at fertilization, the process during which a male gamete or sperm ... unites with a female gamete or oocyte ... to form a single cell called a zygote. This highly specialized, totipotent cell marks the beginning of each of us as a unique individual." Keith L. Moore, Ph.D. & T.V.N. Persaud, Md., The Developing Human: Clinically Oriented Embryology, 6th ed.(Philadelphia: W.B. Saunders Company, 1998), 2-18.

    it can not live if it is taken frim the womb.

    That womb belongs to a completely formed human being.

    You dont have the right to tell that completely formed human being what YOU will allow to be done to the INSIDES of her very own flesh.


    No mommy no baby.


    get it

    There is a hierarchy of rights, and the right to life trumps every other right. Simply because an unborn is growing in a mother's body does not give her the right to end its life. The law already forbids everyone in this country from taking life, I fail to see why you think a pregnant woman has the right to kill.

    I am all for letting people do whatever they will as long as it doesn't violate the rights of others. People do not own their own bodies, and do not have a 'right to control what happens inside it.' Regardless, the right to life trumps every other right.

    Oh, goody! Is this another sock puppet or another crazy zealot?

    An embryo does not become a living creature until the umbilical cord is cut and it is able to sustain it's own life.

    How about we take another aproach to protecting what you see as full rights owning person who ends up in an unwilling uterous.


    You snip EVERY males testicular sperm delivery tube and make sure no little guys get into unwilling uterous'.


    That is how you control your part of the bargain.

    Interesting theory. Now provide some credible science supporting that being independent is a prerequisite to being a legal Person.

    What about when the fetus is out of the other body, what then?
    When is it to be considered a life?
    What qualifies as the moment life begins?

    Barbera boxer says the non living thing can be terminated at any point until it gets home from the hospital.
    Is that the general opinion of all liberals?
    Arrival at home is the moment of birth?
    That's when life begins?

    when you can adopt a fetus and invent a artifiscial womb you can adopt unwanted fetuses.

    Until then the fully grown woman human gets the right to deside when she harbors a fetus inside her very own flesh.


    Until then fuck off

    But what about when it is outside of the woman, what then?
    In that period between the fetus being outside of the woman's body entirely and it being born?
    Who decides then whether to abort or not?
