The only one lacking the capacity to comprehend what they read is you. As I stated, if the womans life is in danger, then the choice is hers. So do try to pull your head out of your ass long enough to comprehend that this time.
Why? Why should the choice to kill an innocent human being be decided by a human being with a defective body? Think! Just for a moment, think. Try to use every bit of logic you can muster and
think. What kind of asinine conclusion is it to say a human being with a defective body has the right to kill another human being who is completely healthy and innocent? For the love of God,
think!
It is not men that call a fertilized cell a human being it is SCIENCE that dictates that. Your wanting to ignore science so that you can continue to spout your ignorance is quite pathetic.
Science can determine if something is composed of human material. That's it. And while we're on this absurd subject of a unique individual here's something to wrap your tiny mind around.
"A child's genes are inherited from his or her parents, so when a 52-year-old woman from Boston had a completely different set of genes than two of her three children, the medical community was at a loss for an explanation. It took two years for doctors to conclude that she was a "human chimera," someone with two or more distinct sets of genes. For example, DNA extracted from the skin of a human chimera may be different from DNA in the blood. Chimerism -- named after a Greek monster called the chimera with the head of a lion, body of a goat and tail of a snake -- occurs during pregnancy when two embryos that would have resulted in fraternal twins fuse early on in the pregnancy, resulting in one baby with two separate sets of DNA. While some chimeras have two different eye colors, most lead normal lives and never realize their condition." (AOL Health)
So, what do we have here? Two unique human beings or two halves of two unique human beings or.....? Were you not the one going on about genes and suggesting I educate myself? I suggest you seek education because, quite frankly, you don't know what the hell you're talking about.
"Chimerism tends to occur very early in the embryonic development. It is often the result of two non-identical twin embryos merging together instead of growing on their own. Although the condition is very rare, with only about 35 people in the US being identified as having chimerism, it tends to get attention from popular media.
"There was one legal case involving a woman with chimerism, who was proven not to be the mother of her own children. Later discovery of embryonic cells with different DNA disproved the earlier DNA results." http://www.wisegeek.com/what-is-chimerism.htm
"Jane's body was made up of two genetically distinct types of cells.
There was only one conclusion: Jane was a mixture of two different people.
Kruskall thinks the most likely explanation for this is that Jane's mother
conceived non-identical twin girls, who fused at an early stage of the
pregnancy to form a single embryo.
For some reason, cells from only one twin have come to dominate
in Jane's blood - the tissue used in tissue-typing. In Jane's other
tissues, however, including her ovaries, cells of both types live amicably
alongside each other,……"

Oh, my. I guess we can flush your unique, individual human being argument. As you said previously. " it is SCIENCE that dictates". Well, science has dictated that Jane is composed of two different people. Not like being composed of a mommy egg and a daddy sperm but being composed of two unique, individual human beings that supposedly came into being at conception.
Does Jane get two SS numbers? If one human being is charged with DUI can the other still drive? If one Jane is sentenced to prison what about the other Jane? Do we cut the sentence in half because, well, only half a person really did commit the crime? Do we check the DNA of her finger to determine which individual human being pulled the trigger on the gun?
No doubt you'll have difficulty to comprehend and assimilate this information so I'll spell it out for you.
First, science/DNA/genes can determine if something is composed of human material but it can not determine if something is a human being.
Second, the undisputed fact a person can have two sets of DNA which resulted in science "proving" a mother did not bear her own children (cough, cough) should caution any rational person to not throw all their proverbial eggs in one basket when it comes to science proving an individual comes into existence at conception. If that was the case we could argue Jane is two individual, unique human beings (or is that "Jane
are two individual, unique human beings).
We've just scratched the surface of genetics/human DNA/genes, relatively speaking. So, don't go flying off the handle and jumping on the DNA band wagon because you'll look like an ass. That's not to say you don't already look like one but why add to the image?

You simply want to create idiotic strawmen..... you should take lessons from Dung, at least his strawmen are more interesting.
