the same can be said of a fish.
who said it wasn't aliveI am not arguing for or against killing it, but if it can be killed, it is alive.

Not me, but if it is alive, then killing it ends a life.
Killing is something we do all the time. All we really do is argue over which ones to kill.
it has less consciousness than the cod i ate at dinner.
it's just a matter of species loyalty, no?
nor will it mug me or shoot my neighbour.It's entirely about species loyalty. You can roll your dice on embryonic cod, but the chances are, the cod it might become will never take out the garbage or change your depends. It's not science. It's something entirely else.

it will reliably taste good in batter.
^^ i look at that and i see limbs, a head, eyes.
but i don't see a person.
it's brain is incomplete. it's thoughts and emotions are no more complex than those of a fish.
i can't pinpoint the moment where that little creature becomes a person though. somewhere between conception and birth f'sure.
looking at that stage, i find it hard to understand the passion of the antiabortionists.
well, as a society, america kinda does that by withholding access to medical treatment to all but the wealthy.
i'm ok with the idea of killing people.
but that, in my mind, isn't a person yet.

you imply an effort.
but it's the same perplex i felt when i looked at the scans.
in my mind i had created potential people,
but the scans showed not-people.
...they became people. amazing people.
but still, at that point, i saw them and thought... huh!

or it's not seeing what i see further on.It's just drawing a line. You can draw it anywhere you like and you do not have to justify it to anyone but yourself.
You maybe one of the fortunate people who never have to consider it as more than a philosophical question.
It is what a dead one looks like and I still believe in things like star trek. Human fetuses are radioactive. We should all be fucking aware of what they are.
Discuss. I'll be back when I'm wrong.
if i pull a hair out,
it's a human hair.
you're being a moron
