You have stolen their humanity. It's a very Nazi tactic: just say they're not human and you can do what you want with them. If humanity is based merely on physical existence, then that is to deny any significance to the mind and soul. It is a materialist and atheist world-view, whether you realize it or not.

Fat juicy strawmen will get you nowhere. You are the one saying they have no soul because their nervous systems haven't developed yet. Your post, in fact, ascribes to me exactly the position you are taking.

"If humanity is based merely on physical existence, then that is to deny any significance to the mind and soul. It is a materialist and atheist world-view, whether you realize it or not." This is not so. The soul exists at conception (fertilization) because life begins at conception, and the soul is the life.
