BTW this was one of my arguments back in the 70s with you anti-lifers ...
I was an active pro-lifer before being pro-life was cool..
David knew that the baby was a baby...
and mentioned that fact in Psalms etc..
its well documented that modern science was not needed to know the baby was a living sole from conception..
take Elizabeth and Mary...Luke 1:26-44
Elizabeth was 6 months pregnant with her son, John ..
Mary just newly pregnant with her son, Jesus..she had “hurried” to see Elizabeth right after the angel told her she would be pregnant and that Elizabeth was pregnant..
it was the same day or the next day or the same week...Jesus was still a secret..Mary hadn’t “missed” a period as yet...
Both John and Jesus already had spirits and a way of communication in the Spirit..
John heard the voice of Mary speaking to Elizabeth and he leaped for joy..and Elizabeth was filled with Holy Spirit
In the Spirit Elizabeth knew why the unborn-as-yet John leaped..
She said it was because Mary was pregnant with Jesus her Lord...
Oh dear..unborn babies have spirits just like born humans..
bang goes that unBiblical theory of pagan Mormons and others that human babies do not get a spirit until birth so go ahead and abort them..
anyhoo...
just what was that all about ???
Im sure you will apprise igit us with some so called scientific goody to refute the superstitions of the uneducated Elizabeth and Mary...
after all they lived 2,000 years ago...
2 millennium before your scientists..
What are you going on about?
I have been describing all along the scientific basis for a pro-life position. There is nothing “anti-life” about pointing out that an unborn baby is aware and able to feel from about 3 weeks after conception on.
