Almost nothing you stated is accurate yet your so passionate about it. Thats perplexing and terrifying at the same time.

actually, the majority of it is pretty sound logic, though much of it i believe to be from a narrow perspective. obviously i disagree with some of the inherent values in place, but this is the kind of stuff that we are going to have to be able to make a case against, and resorting to insults merely because you can't find an immediate answer is not going to win us any points.
i think that it is a flawed position to claim that the human fetus, and even earlier, the human embryo, is in need of any substantiation as anything but a human being. i need to investigate further in order to decide whether that is primarily a physiological or philosophical disagreement, but i am pretty confident that the defining nature is the same.
the though, is one of the problems that i see; too many people have too many ideas about the definition and value of human life.
