UC Davis researchers today described in unprecedented biochemical and anatomical detail how cigarette smoke damages the lungs of unborn and newborn children.

And on another thread these same people are denying that the unborn are children at all.

And silly me, I thought unborn children didn't use their lungs, so I'm kinda wonderin' how the smoke gets in there to damage 'em.

Perhaps I'm being thickheaded today. But I fail to understand how silly comments reflect on the science involved. Further, how such comments reflect the slightest understanding of the science involved.

Denial of life; denial of facts . . . UTTERLY FAIL as good survival habits.

This was my first thought too. If scientists and law makers really care about the health of unborn children why do we allow 4,000 abortions a day? From what I've read, I understand that abortion is very harmful to the unborn.
