**Though the potential for brain activity exists in the fetus, consciousness does not. The soul is not there, yet. **

Sorry...should have added: prove it.

You can't prove a negative. "The onus of proof is on he who asserts the positive." Thus, if you say that a fetus is aware of itself, in other words, has content in its brain prior to birth, you must prove it. I do not have to prove that which there is no proof for and which, by my definition, cannot be proved.
