"Should the Unborn be Considered Human?" A College Student's Final Project

Greetings.

To those of you who know me, you'll know I've written extensively on the subject of abortion.

Should the Unborn be Considered Human? and Abortion Proposal: A Need for Education were my final papers for English 101 and English 102. They both served as the base for my final project in Computer Science 101, where the final grade depended heavily on one's ability to design a website.

The instructors said to base your website's final project on a term paper, or any subject of term paper length. My previous two papers on abortion immediately leapt to mind.

However, my final project ended up going far beyond my two papers. It became enormous. As such, it is, thus far, my ultimate work with regards to my Pro-Life views. Within this work are five arguments, based on biology, philosophy, morality, legality, and reality. Points and counterpoints are offered (many coming from Pro-Choice activist T.F. Barans, who is a REAL piece of work).

You can click on the link above to go straight to the project index page, or you can go straight to my final project here. Or for the more light-hearted among you, you can begin from my website index and goof around first before moving on. I really do suggest viewing the webpage; I could post all the material here, but then a lot of the functionality would be lost.

I hope you all approve of the final project. I spent a lot of work on it. Spread it to other Pro-Lifers for use if you want to.

Enjoy.

Thanks!

Easy: does the unborn baby have human DNA? This it is, indeed, human. End of story.

Would you believe it when I say that that T.F. Barans woman I quoted at the beginning (aka "The Angry Vegan") argued against that idea?

[ClearBlueSky]

Pardon me, but this pushes my hot button.
Good Lord, what has happened to the human mind that such a question would ever be thought of??
What else can an unborn human be BUT human?
Has there EVER been a case in recorded history of a human having any other species? Cows, monkeys, birds, hamsters?
Humans create humans. Period.
To even ask such a question is asinine bordering on mentally retarded.

Hence why I used as my project title. Because some people think they aren’t.

[Rudder]

Gee, I recall a fellow student being kicked out of a graduate seminar for using human as a noun. Eventually he left the program altogether---got my attention.

Thanks.

I agree.

There was a vegan family in my carpool when I was a kid (back in the late 50s, early 60s). They made the kids be vegans too. They were the sickliest, puniest, palest kids --any bug that was going around school, they caught it first and caught it worst. Always had sniffles and coughs, never played on the playground, it was pitiful.

One of the parents with kids in the carpool was our pediatrician and a close friend of my parents. He was discussing with them whether to do an intervention (though they didn't call it that then). He was really worried about the kids. He said that growing children especially needed the proteins and amino acids that you could only get from red meat, and that depriving them of eggs and dairy as well was going to kill them . . .

I don't know what happened, those decisions were made way above my pay grade when I was 8 or 9 years old . . .

Thanks for the ping! A beautiful website/project. I plan to share the link with pro-life friends.

Please let us know the grade that you receive.

Should college students be called human , that is the question.

[Just A Nobody]

Thanks for the ping. Saving for morning.

I’d appreciate it if you read through the post and my website first. I’m arguing in DEFENSE of the unborn.

"Should any of the following be considered "human": 1) Democrats 2) Liberals 3) Celebrities 4) Washed-up has-been singers 5) Muslims



Muslims are people of great faith, who though following a false prophet, a perverse and vengeful god and an abhorrent lifestyle, still have within themselves the human spark needed for conversion, redemption and salvation. For them Apokatasiasis is a real possibility.


.....#1 - #4 = no hope. <;^}

I like how you worded that. Thank you. (I think it’s how I’ve wanted to phrase my thoughts...but couldn’t put it into words!)

[Skooz]

Thanks for posting this.

My daughter is home schooled (via a collegiate correspondence course) and has decided to write her required term paper on the abortion debate. Her title is “Why I Oppose Abortion.”

I will direct her to your site for material and references.

Should I, as a vegetarian, parade in front of YOUR favorite restaurant where YOU are eating MEAT, with pictures of what goes on in the slaughterhouse where your meal came from?

feel free. i kill and butcher my own meat, pictures are not going to bother me.
