Quite true. Anyone with suitable diagnostic tools can tell the difference between a healthy living embryo and one that has expired.
And yes, when you’re pregnant, you’re going to have a baby. Your only choice is whether to have a live baby, or a dead one.
It’s a start.
Without going any further I think that we are all in agreement: a baby is alive at the instant of conception from our viewpoint, and semantics that attempt to define away it's humanity until some ill-defined point later on are just that...semantics.
Physical reality is that there's a life in there, maybe doesn't have a mortgage or a college degree yet, but then things like that take time.
My point was that the legal profession is engaged in word games that contradict even simple physical reality. They can do things like that because language is imprecise, and they exploit that characteristic of it.
But in using that linguistic malleability in this instance, they have shown the terrible consequences of such a cavalier attitude. Millions of humans, ripped from their Mother's bodies by brute force, and literally discarded.
But it's OK according to the attorneys because it's "not really a human, at least as us lawyers define one".
I’m pretty sure — and always saddened — that you won’t get a response.
People seem afraid to speak of this message. Even with Death Cult forces of the ilk of Holdren and Emanual nearly bragging “and there’s nothing you peons can do about it any longer.”
It recalls the scene in HGWells’”The Time Machine” where the Eloi willingly marched into the Morlock processing center.
FReepers are not Eloi, (whereas much of the rest of the nation sure seems to be) yet they behave in a “huh?” manner whenever the Morlock-like plans for them come to light.
It could be some are simply keeping the powder dry, but I fear not. Each day the noose gets tighter as the DC power grab filters down to fine tune their control of every institution, not just national, but in the states.
