I don't think they've the capacity to differentiate silicon breast implant from embryo, much less a human being from fetus. All they care about is trampling on others' rights for political gains and then go trumpeting "personal liberty for all".

But then, many of these are also the same ones, who don't shy away from suggesting that those who disagree with them, should have been aborted (Kathleen Parker discovered it quickly from her fellow "conservatives" after denouncing Sarah Palin on the GOP ticket).

I understand the lovers of death will find any excuse to justify it but it is human life which goes through stages from embryo to death whenever that comes, naturally, illness, accident or murder.

God must love death. He guaranteed it for every living creature He created and loves.

But I get the feeling that you wouldn't 'approve' of a married woman taking it, even if that woman has decided she wants no more children or any children at all.

You're welcome to believe that, but there is no scientific definition of when human life begins.

So I'd suggest if that's what YOU believe, that YOU don't have an abortion and stay out of my business.

Doctors have to be ordered to tell the truth? Well, that's fine.

I cannot believe the ignorance of biology that many pro-choicer's have. At some point the fetus becomes human (biologically speaking)? You should've flunked ninth grade biology. I mean, I studied biology at an Ivy League school, but I did know these things in ninth grade.

At conception, the fetus is at all at once distinct, human, and living (in the biological meanings of these words). Now there are some people that have decided sociological concerns take precedence over those facts, and some of them have very good arguments. They just aren't personally convincing to me.

Actually, many biology and neonatology textbooks for generations have said that human life begins at conception. It's just that when abortion turned into a 'political' issue, such basic facts were just left out of textbooks to avoid perturbing people's consciences.

Absolutely not. There is no scientific definition of when human life begins.

Again - no. Show me a SCIENCE book that says life begins at conception. Absolute hogwash. Back it up.
