Abortion

I will not repeat my refutations that I have already said but will present new ones. As for all your arguments, they're all wrong and pointless once you realize that we are human beings from the moment of conception and all deserve A right to life. Also note, all the information presented by my opponent is wrong/incredible because they are clearly from pro-abortion websites as well as pro-abortion advocates, which clearly means they have A bias in this matter, and therefore (according to his logic of course) cannot be deemed truthful. ~ foolish, clearly there is going to be a bias in this debate, no matter what side you're on. But only one side is presenting the truth. Me. Now I will continue this debate by arguing the only fact of the matter that actually matters, which is that these are human beings from the moment of conception. As for these "Kantian ideals for potential" I'm not familiar enough with them to use them, but I don't have to in order to prove that A human being is A human being and alive, from the moment of conception. No one is forcing A mother to die, that is simply A lie. I am just not condoning the murder of the innocent life inside her. She is not sentenced to death and neither is the life inside her, which is of just as equal value. Now understand this, from the moment of conception the tissue of the father (sperm) and the tissue of the mother (egg) unite, at this point they are no longer merely tissue but A life form. from this moment forward the Human being that is formed, begins to develop through the stages of life. (This is what makes the human being Alive and not merely tissue, it's DEVELOPING, the sperm or the egg cannot do this on their own, only UNITED is the human life created and begins to go through this developmental process until roughly the age of 25). EXPLANATION ~This DEVELOPING, which is what proves theres human life, does not magically cease once humans are born, rather it continues. all throughout adolescent years, into adulthood and it is scientifically proven that the brain itself actually continues to develop until roughly the age of 25. People don't just magically become people once they have Brain activity, or take their first breath, they're people all along. Simply because they have not DEVELOPED enough to have the Brain Activity such as yourself or myself does not make them any less human, they have already started the process of life and will continue to develop until age 25. Now according to your video, A human being is only A human being once there is Brain activity, but this makes no sense. According to this logic, someone with down syndrome would be considered less human then someone with A normally developed brain. But this is not the case, we know that there is something more to life, then mere brain activity. On top of this, let's look at someone who is in A comatose state, according to your logic, this person would not actually be Alive, or even A human being. But that is not the case either, these people are indeed human beings and are definitely alive. They simply lack brain activity, which is not what makes them A human, clearly. Otherwise they would not still be alive, which they are. Life must be something else therefore then mere brain activity. Answer~ Life begins at conception, the moment when this whole developmental process begins. Nothing else makes logical sense. To say otherwise, you have to commit logical fallacies such as my opponent has. As far as my opponents second video, First argument ~ says it happens either way, and since people have unplanned pregnancies they don't want they should be allowed to murder the innocent life growing inside them. Illogical and irrelevant, this is A human life and deserves to be treated as one, simply because the two people were not careful does not mean the baby should suffer for their mistakes. Second argument ~ says It's not alive, complete lie. This is in fact a living human being who has already started the developmental process to reach all the capacities of human life which you and i both possess. Saying it's not alive is simply an ignorant statement which ignores scientific proof that has already been provided. third argument ~ Planned babies are healthier, ignores the fact that unplanned babies are in fact human beings who are alive and developing. Being such they deserve to be treated as human beings and deserve a right to life. Fourth argument ~ Adoption is not an adoption ~ Complete lie, adoption is always an option, if however you do become attached to your child and find A way to support the child, that is awesome. Nothing wrong with that. Fifth argument ~ God does not have a say ~ once again A complete lie. But really does not matter in this debate because science alone is all that is needed to prove abortion is wrong and is in fact the killing of the most innocent form all life. In conclusion, all my opponents arguments are bogus. He makes logical fallacies left and right and fails to back them up with any real evidence. The truth of the matter is that life begins at the moment of conception, when the whole developmental process begins. I'll provide more videos to back this up, also under my definition, unlike my opponents, it applies to all human life no matter what stage of development they are in and is logical. Unlike my opponent who has no explanation for people with down syndrome and how they are fully human, or those in A comatose state who lose their brain activity and how they are still fully human. Human life only end with the cessation of ALL vital functions of the human body including heartbeat, brain activity, and breathing. Taking in this definition of the end of life and using my opponents tactic of zeroing in on only one of these functions of life, we could say that the life begins at 18-21 days, when the child first begins to have A heartbeat. However, we know for A fact that life begins at the moment of conception because the DEVELOPMENTAL process towards having this heart beat has already begun. It is completely logical and scientifically proven. My point about life beginning once the baby had A heartbeat, merely provides another example as to why my opponent is wrong. I don't know about you, but I've never heard of A tulip having A heartbeat, or ever developing into anything more than A tulip it is always merely a tulip, your comparison is illogical. Also my opponent provided a picture of a 6 week abortion well lets provide pictures from four weeks later at 10 weeks, remember that the first trimester goes up to just under 14 weeks. feel free to take A look ~ http://www.jillstanek.com... and watch the following videos ~ Here is A another video which explains in depth why Human Life begins at conception :
