You're confusing scientific judgement with moral judgment. A good scientist may assess this article as being scientifically sound, yet empathetically insist that it should not be used as the final word in deciding a complex issue. Certainly, this article does not make me sway at all in my pro-life views; even if fetuses don't feel pain, it does not stop me from viewing abortion as a particularly barbaric form of muder.

Absolutely wrong, they are NOT fetal pain researchers, they are politicos with an agenda who did a meta study of other peoples work and used SOME of the data to justify their predetermined conclusion in order to scuttle fetal pain bills. You're confusing science and politics.

I already told you why it is scientifically unsound, you just chose to ignore it and I am not a scientist. It doesn't pass the laugh test if you have any aquaintance at all with the brain, the nervous system and fetal pain research. It is garbage.

Well, thats laudable but you should recognize dogcrap when you see it, it saves time cleaning your shoes.
