Ahh, the same 'impasse' revisited ad nauseum, and every time the lie is allowed to dangle virtually unchallenged : "That's enough talk about the little ... whatever ... in her body. We are obviously at an impasse regarding its status."

When the 'thing' in the uterus is still merely a visible blob, no arm buds or leg buds, he or she can still be tested to discover whether she has Down's Syndrome, or a host of other genetically identifiable diseases. How is this possible if the thing is only a blob of tissue, not yet a human being? Well, put simply, if it were merely a generic blob of tissue, she would not be testable! This little girl in the womb may be tested to discern what diseases WILL manifest perhaps years later, because she is already the individual human being she will always be throughout her lifetime, her lifetime begun at her unique conception!

The 'blob of tissue' argument is based on a deep and very destructive LIE. But then most of the lines of argument defending the abortion holocaust are based in LIES purposely constructed for maximum effect on the public psyche.

By the time a woman knows she is pregnant, it is no longer a "blob of tissue", but a very, very recognizable thing.

Both the article and the response are well thought out. I applaud the authors! If there is one unalterable thought in my psyche it is that HUMAN LIFE begins at conception.
Oh my God! does that put me at odds with the femi-nazis?
Too bad.

Isn't it an interesting exercise in double-think to say that a fetus is not a human being, but just a glob of tissue? Yet, this glob, who isn't a human being, must be killed so that he/she cannot live.
