Abortion is nearly always wrong.

I made the distinction between the "bigging of all life" and that of "one life" for you to help you realize that arbotions dose not really threaten our lives or life in general . You said you can't make sence of this because all human life should be valued the same. We can value human lives the same amoung human lives, or human embryo lives amoung human embryo lives. However a human embryo life is not the same as a person's life. A person's life is way more valuable to us than a fetus's. Thats one reason why orbartion is not the same as murder and why most people will opt to arbort whenever they have to choose between their wellfere and that at their fetus's. So with this ,sorry but we can not start with the premise that a person's life is equal to that of a fetus.I never made any assertions about what the bigging of all life is. I simply pointed out that conception is not the bigging of all life so its no big deal if stopped. You asked me for an alternative "bigging of all life" , this I think is irrelevant to this debate. If you meant the biggining of human life ,my answer is that I do not know any point when it starts because human life is a cycle. At the earliest stages human embryos looks nothing like a human being but all the other marmal embryos. They do not have most of the characteristics that distinguish them from the rest of the animals yet. They will continue to develop throughout the cycle slowly developing attributes that will make them complete human beings with human characteristics.Your example about killing a child because of family hardships demonstrates that you misunderstood a very important point and a key factor on this issue which is ,"birth control ". This is nothing like murdering a person to evade responsibility as your example implies . Birth control is more valuable to humans than a single birth is. It is directly linked to the quality of our lives and our environment so this is whats really matters here. We do have some ways to help us get this control e.g. use of contraceptives and positive behavior to avoid pregnancies but these can fail. Abortion is the final and ultimate chance we get to really control birth because it decides weather or not there will be a birth.About murder. Murder is the unlawfull premeditated killing of a human being by another human being. It is arguably the worst crime one can inflict on another and this is all for very good reasons. When you kill someone you end their consciusness this usually maximize human suffering because you would have -distroyed their memories forever and may inflict pain and distress on them in the process -remove them from loved ones forever -deny them potential experiences and fortunes. And you will hurt or distroy their cause in life.These are reasons why murder is so terrible Most of my reasons for not accepting that abortion is the same thing as murder have to do with why murder is wrong in the first place.1 Embryos are not conscious2 Embryos do not show signs of feeling pain until around the 27th week so they will not suffer like a person might suffer during a murder. 3 Embryos have not yet made the kind of connections and relationships with a lot of loved ones so their demise will not affect as many people
