Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: No

False. A cell is an organism, but there is another type of organism that is called multicellular organism, which need two or more cells to become one organism.Either way - stating that a fetus is an organism isn't really helping you, since a plant is an organism too.
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: Yes

False yourself: Congress registers its support for human embryonic stem-cell research" ... the legal analysis conducted by the Department of Health and Human Services, which runs the NIH. It’s 1999 legal opinion states that:“Pluripotent stem cells [including human embryonic stem cells] are not organisms and do not have the capacity to develop into an organism that could perform all the life functions of a human being. They are, rather, human cells that have the potential to evolve into different types of cells such as blood cells or insulin-producing cells. Pluripotent stem cells do not have the capacity to develop into a human being, even if transferred to a uterus. Based on an analysis of the relevant law and scientific facts, federally funded research that utilizes human pluripotent stem cells would not be prohibited by the HHS appropriations law prohibiting human embryo research, because such stem cells are not human embryos.”*
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: No

Why are you talking about stem cells when we are debating about organisms?
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: Yes

Do the math sporto.... if a stem cell is not an organism, neither is a skin cell.
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: No

Skin cell and stem cells aren't the same .
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: Yes

You are such an epic fail when it comes to simple logic and reasoniong.1. You are claiming that human skin cells are human organisms. True or false? 2. A human stem cell can become a skin cell. It has the potential to do that. True or false?3. The Congression study concluded that human stem cells are not human organisms and that stem cells don't even have the capacity to become a human organism. True or false? 4. So, that would include an instance of a Stem Cell becoming a Skin Cell. True or False.The logical conclusion then is that a Skin Cell is also not an organism... because if it were, then the Congressional study would be wrong. Now.... You can hold onto your claim that human skin cells are human organisms if you want to.... and you can by doing so, also claim that the Congressional Study was wrong with their conclusions.... But unless you can support your claim that the skin cells that stem cells might become are in fact organisms?I'm going to conclude that you are full of shit.
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: No

Stem cells are found in multicellular organisms, as I tried to explain to you earlier.
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: Yes

You've failed to address the questions and points in my post and just so you know, skin cells are found in multicellular organisms as well... AND?You wanna try again?
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: No

And??You said stem cells aren't organisms. You just stated against your own statement.Stem cells are organisms, they're multicellular organisms.
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: Yes

Stem cells are organisms, they're multicellular organisms.The Congressional study I showed you declared them NOT to be organisms. It went on to say that a stem cell can't even beome an organism. That means that not even a skin cell is an organism (as you claim). Now, are you going to answer those questions or not?
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: No

Well.. then the study is false.Because a stem cell is a multi cellular organism
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: Yes

Well.. then the study is false. Because a (single) stem cell is a multi cellular organismAnd a human being in the fetal stage of their life is not? Bwahahahahaha!Oh my sides!Priceless!Have a nice evening!
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: Yes

A fetus is an organism, if that's what you were implying.I never claimed otherwise.It's morning for me - but nice evening to you.
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: Yes

That's right - a fetus is an organism. So, that means that a human fetus is a human organism.True or False?
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: Yes

Here come the arguments questioning why we should care about our own species :D
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: Yes

No doubt that's coming soon... she's not finished with the denials yet though... My expectation is that next will be the denial of the fact that a human organism in the womb is a human BEING.
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: Yes

I never said a fetus isn't an organism.True. Human fetus, human organism. Not a human being.
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: Yes

hu′man be′ing n.1. any individual of the genus Homo, esp. a member of the species Homo sapiens.2. a person, esp. as distinguished from other animals or as representing the human species:What's the difference between a human being and a human organism?
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: No

Bwahahahahahah!See Trumpet!?!Priceless!Shout..... is an amoeba (single celled creature that it is) a "living being?"
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: Yes

It's lovely to see you laughing at your own jokes, at least someone find them funny.I am a being with a brain, a consciousness, I have all the required human organs.A 5 week old fetus has none of these things.
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: Yes

You add your own clause for it having a consciousness. Technically a newborn does not really have a sense of awareness of its being.Right now its sad. Animals have more rights than a human, fetus or not.
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: Yes

Does it have a human brain ?
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: Yes

Now we go back to my heap arguememt from awhile ago. Now that we have established that consciousness is not present even in newborns to about 2 years old, why is it needed?http://www.scientificamerican.com/article.cfm?id=when-does-consciousness-arise Before you start the skin, hair, and nail rant, these cannot produce a baby if attached to an umbilical cord, a fetus can.
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: Yes

Like I said.. if it has a brain, then it is a human being.
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: Yes

You completely missed my point. You say consciousness makes it a human being when 2 year olds aaren't conscious. You say a brain is needed but why is this? Why is a brain entrance into humanity? Answer: its not
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: Yes

She's already been shown legal cases where children born without a brain, consciousness or ability to feel pain are still recognized as human beings....She's dense.
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: Yes

Technically court cases don't necessarily equate to scientific and philosophical truths, but thats legit.
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: Yes

While there is a lot of truth in what you said.... it's also true that when courts rulings that are not scientifically sound (and truthful)... they are quickly challenged and even overturned. So far, no one has challenged the courts rulings on the rights of anencephalic children and until they are challenged and overturned, those rulings will stand.
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: Yes

No that's not what I said.Consciousness and a human brain is what I consider to be a human being. If you're missing one of those you're still human in my opinion. If you're missing one I wouldn't consider you human.
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: Yes

If you're missing one of those you're still human in my opinion. If you're missing one I wouldn't consider you human.Logic. your. sense. not.
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: No

You seem to be having a hard time focussing.Answer my question....Is an amoeba a living being?
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: Yes

well, the basic characteristics of all living things are:-contains DNA (genetic material)-metabolism-reproductionAmoeba does all of the above.
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: No

Alrighty.... but you aren't being clear. Is an amoeba a living being or not? Maybe this will help. UNICELLULAR Any living being consisting of a single cell. Most are invisible without a microscope but a few, such as the giant amoeba, may be visible to the naked eye. The main groups of unicellular organisms are bacteria, archaea, protozoa, unicellular algae, and unicellular fungi or yeasts. Some become disease-causing agents pathogens.
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: Yes

Aren't being clear??? Get some glasses .
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: No

I'm wearing glasses... and I can see very clearly that you have yet to say outright that an amoeba is a living being.It's clear WHY you are being so reluctant.... but seriously, You can afford to acknowledge that an amoeba is a living being (brainless and one celled though it is) and still be ""pro-choice"" on abortion. Hell, you could even cut to the chase and admit that an abortion kills a human being (like Dana does) and remain pro-choice on abortion if you want to. Your reluctance has helped me refine some points and hopefully reach some others who might have been on the fence though...So, it's not been a total waste of time.
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: Yes

It isn't a human being, so I won't admit anything.Before the 5week I can't see a reason why not to support abortion.
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: No

It isn't a human being, so I won't admit anything.Is an amoeba a living being? Shout?
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: Yes

Read my previous arguments, for the love of God .
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: No

I have read them.You are hedging with your answers and I would like a simple yes or no answer. Do you think your reluctance and dodging is looking good for your argument?
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: Yes

Do you think asking the same questions over and over again looks good for your argument? Further more, do you think any of your arguments look good?You've asked that question before, I answered.
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: Yes

Do you think asking the same questions over and over again looks good for your argument? It does when the person being asked squirms like you have been doing. Absolutely!Further more, do you think any of your arguments look good?Yes. I do.
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: Yes

I'm not here to look good.You asked a question, I answered. It's all there black on white - you do read right?
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: No

I can read just fine.... that's how I know that your claim that a human being while in the fetal stage of their life is not a human being is such a load of crap. It can't be anything less than what it is.
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: Yes

Do you have no human brain and no consciousness? Then no, I don't think you are a human being."Baby K Baby K was born on October 13, 1992, with anencephaly, a condition involving absence of the cerebral and cerebellar portions of the brain, for which there is no curative or ameliorative treatment. Baby K was permanently unconscious, could not hear or see, and apparently could not feel pain, but did have sucking, swallowing and coughing reflexes (consistent with the condition of anencephaly). She had difficulty breathing at birth and was placed on a ventilator. Hospital personnel encouraged Ms. H, Baby K’s mother, to enter a DNR order and to discontinue ventilator treatment for Baby K. Ms. H refused to permit either. Baby K was eventually weaned from the ventilator and transferred to a nursing home, where she had several subsequent episodes of respiratory distress requiring rehospitalization and a tracheotomy. Ms. H continued to seek aggressive care for Baby K. The hospital filed suit in federal district court seeking a declaratory ruling and injunctive relief to the effect that its future refusal to provide Baby K with life-sustaining medical care (primarily the ventilator), would not violate the following laws: The Emergency Medical Treatment and Active Labor Act (EMTALA), the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 (the "Rehab Act"), the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), and the Child Abuse Amendments of 1984, and the Virginia Medicine Malpractice Act.The court denied the hospital the relief it sought under EMTALA, the ADA and the Rehabilitation Act,...
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: Yes

What is your point ?
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: Yes

The point is that our courts have already decided (recently) that neither a brain nor consciousness is required for personhood or for the protections of our laws.
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: No

That doesn't change my opinion. I don't care what your laws say :)
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: Yes

Well, until you can change our laws with your opinions.... you should at least be able to see that our opinions are (at least) based upon something factual.
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: No

I can never change the laws of a country I'm not a citizen in.And the country I am a citizen in? Well they already agree with me, so I don't have to change anything there.
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: Yes

Your profile says that you are in the U.S. What country are you in? I'm going to bet that wherever it is, you already have laws (and legal definitions) that support the fact that a child in the womb is a child / human being, etc.
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: No

I didn't edit my profile information to show where I'm from - and you can't choose ''no country'', so it automatically sets to US, for some reason.And yes, we have laws where I live. They don't support your imaginary facts.
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: Yes

I'd like to see that for myself. What country do you live in?
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: Yes

I live in the Danish Kingdom, and over here the law says you are allowed to abort until the 12th week of your pregnancy.And if we didn't have time to make up our mind whether we want to keep the baby or not by the 12th week, we can always take a trip to our neighbor-land, Sweden, that allows women to abort till 18th week of pregnancy.
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: Yes

For your consideration...New Danish law: human life begins at conception.Author's abstractA new law has been passed by the Danish Parliament, establishing an ethical council. The law has caused considerable debate in Denmark, particularly because it states that 'the work of the council shall build on the basis that human life takes its beginning at the time of conception'.
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: Yes

For my consideration?1. I don't know what you're trying here. But you can disagree with laws, it's illegal to not obey them, but you can still disagree with them. So even if abortion was illegal in the Danish Kingdom, it wouldn't change the fact that I support choice.2. I don't know what you've just posted, but abortion is legal in Denmark. Abortion is actually recommended by doctors when the mother is bearing a child with down syndrome.You can ''post'' all you want, but I am pregnant now, I visited the doctor recently, and he asked, because of my young age, if I wanted an abortion. Abortion is legal in Denmark, this is a fact, I live here.
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: Yes

The link was posted to show you that it is not only the laws in our country (the U.S.) that support our claims that a child in the fetal stage of their life is a human being... your laws do too and they do so in spite of the fact that abortions (for now) remain "legal."
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: No

Lol, I like where you say ''for now'', like there's ever gonna be a change of abortion laws in Denmark :)
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: Yes

So why isnt someones 18 year old the same as their fingernail?
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: No

Because he has a human body, a human brain and consciousness.
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: Yes

In a few weeks a fetus has a body and a brain, besides why does that make them a human being? Because YOU said so?
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: No

Because YOU said so?I didn't say that makes them a human being, that's my opinion.In a few weeks a fetus has a body and a brainYou can't prove that.
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: Yes

yes I can prove ot. Studies have been done and brainwaves can be sensed in just over a month. Besides, its obvious it has a body.
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: No

That proves it's a child at the 8week if anything, sorry.
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: Yes

Considering over 30% of abortions are done after 8 weeks, that should be a concern.My point is not that its a child at 8 weeks, I was merely refuting what you said in your last post.At conception, the baby has all the DNA to function as a human being. It is no longer a part of the mother therefore she has no right to kill it.
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: No

I'm not debating a 8week fetus. I'm saying a 5week old fetus is not a human being.
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: No

I read all of that stuff with you and Hannah and that was the longest thing I have ever read.
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: No

Haha, well I hope you had fun :)Was it that interesting? :o)
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: No

That girl knows to much. She is too smart. I dont think I want to debate with her. Also do you really believe skin is like an organism?
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: Yes

No, I don't.People don't understand what I mean :) But I've just given up on explaining.You see skin is not just one thing. Skin is made out of three layers. Only the top layer, the layer you see, is dead. The skin underneath are living cells, and a living cell is an organism.
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: No

Yeah I am not a scientist so I am a little lost. I dont know much about that stuff.
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: Yes

Let's agree for the sake of this argument - that human skin is a living human organism.You voted no to the question of whether or not a child in the fetal stage of their life is one. Doesn't a human being in the fetal stage of their life have skin of their own too?
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: Yes

It's not the same as a body part. Human nails, human blood, human hair, human teeth, human saliva, human skin, human semen or human fetuses are all human, but that doesn't make them a human being.Do all of these body parts you've listed develop into an adult human?
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: Yes

How does them having everything to make them human- a heart, a brain- not make them human? Is it just because they haven't been exposed to the outside world? Does that not make them a human being? They are inside of the womb, growing every single day, gaining something new every week, whether it be fingernails, or knuckles, or even a small mole on the side of their leg. They are growing, human beings. Their hearts are beating, they are alive. If that isn't human enough then I don't know what is.
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: No

If a fetus can be of any mammalian species then the fetus is not strictly a human being.If embryo can be that of any mammalian species then embryo is not strictly a human being.The question makes the objective statement that the embryo/fetus is a human being.This is not true because a fetus can be that of any mammalian species and so can an embryo. The words embryo and fetus are subjective words used to describe the stage of development for the young of the subject.So no, I do not believe the embryo/fetus is a human being.I believe a fetus is a fetus and an embryo is an embryo.
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: Yes

This is not true because a fetus can be that of any mammalian species and so can an embryo. The words embryo and fetus are subjective words used to describe the stage of development for the young of the subject.This debate is for a human fetus. It is quite obvious if you read the other arguments. Regardless of label we are arguing if we should acknowledge it as a human being of equivalent value to other human beings.
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: No

This debate is for a human fetusActually this debate is if i believe its a human beingDo you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being? It is quite obvious if you read the other arguments.If the debate is asking me a personal question expect personal answers.Regardless of label we are arguing if we should acknowledge it as a human being of equivalent value to other human beings.Does a deer fetus deserve to be acknowledged as a deer?
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: Yes

Does a deer fetus deserve to be acknowledged as a deer?Yes. I see no reason why it would not be seen as one. It is the same argument as a human fetus.
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: No

Also, in another debate I apparently lost to the argument that rights do not exist. So regardless if it's value is the same it has no Rights (entitlements) and either do you.
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: Yes

Oh so you now admit that the fetus is on the equivalent scale as everyone else is? Well then. Now you are claiming they are equal so what are you saying?
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: No

Oh so you now admit that the fetus is on the equivalent scale as everyone else is?I never said it wasn't I said that the label fetus cannot be a human being because it is subjective when a member of a species is objective. They're humans only if the off spring is human but the fetus itself is not human. The species of the child is what makes it human.
Debate: Do you believe the embryo/fetus is a human being?
Side: Yes

I said that the label fetus cannot be a human being because it is subjective when a member of a species is objective.They're humans but the fetus itself is not human. The species of the child is what makes it human.You contradicted yourself. The species of the fetus is human if we are discussing a human. It is a human fetus meaning it is human. It came from no other species. A human fetus is human if the species it came from determines if what it is. So now you just admitted that a human fetus is indeed human.
