Ask the lab tech who fertiliizes dozens of them, then discards most.

Is he a murderer?

Nice try. We were asking YOU. But we already know your thought on the matter.

It's a leftist tactic to avoid the question by asking a question. You should know this as long as you've been here.

How about sexually abusing an extremely retarded person? They aren't aware....don't "seem" to react much to it. Must be O.K. then, right?

As with the lab tech, I guess we'd have to ask the person who abused the retarded person huh? Is THAT your logic?!

So what about it? Where's the line? When does a fertilized egg suddenly become human? At what point? Please tell me. I've been really wanting an answer to this for a long time. Or for that matter, corn!

The question is still....as you have yet to answer, "What else could the fertilized egg possibly be other than a PERSON?

I think the problem is that in order to admit that common fertilized eggs are PEOPLE, then you have to bear the burden of knowing that murder is occuring, and most people would rather dehumanize a person before murdering him/her. It's a lot easier to murder somebody that you choose to believe isn't human.

For the record, I do believe that a fertilized egg IS a person. What ELSE could it BE?!

That's why I answered that way. You think you 'know', but the fact is, the lab tech is not a murderer because an egg is not a person.

Bull. It's a silly tactic to infer I'm a leftist.

You should know this as long as you've been here.

Whatever. Your opinions are becoming boring.

See my post #51.

Again, whatever. Feel free to post to me when you get some new points.
