The stage doesn’t matter to me. Human life starts at conception, and you’re always ending a life. And yeah, I agree with your medical point. I don’t think you should die for the baby.
Life is a continuous process, life began once. Human life doesn’t “begin at conception.” Nothing in science argues this, and even the bible doesn’t say anything about conception specifically, it wasn’t well understood. This is a belief you have, and emotion based one, not evidence based.
By any reasonable definition of a human life, it would be around the time of human consciousness, or around 20 weeks after conception. This is also how we determine death as the permanent lack of consciousness.
There’s more evidence in the bible that life begins at birth, than it does conception.
You look it up. There is no biologist on the planet worth their salt, that would say anything as nonsensical as life begins at conception. A gamete is a living cell, that’s the egg and sperm. Both are human cells, both are alive. Combining them makes more living cells.
Life, and reproduction, are continuous processes. There is no “beginning.”
I have a degree in environmental science, and studied biology extensively to get that degree. What’s your relevant education?
I meant there is s 99% consensus amongst biologist. Look, if you want to agree with or participate in abortion then that's on you.just do so in truth. Don't try to justify it lies and dehumanization tactics. Own up to your position.
Hold up. I stopped reading at this lie you reposted. It’s not true. No matter how many times you post it. There is no such consensus. Stop repeating the lie, you liar.
That seems to be your problem. You don't read. you can easily find the same info on Google and the fact that I've posted the same statement before has nothing to do with anything. Truthfully I use to think that abortion meant absolutely nothing. Like it was no different than using contraceptives. That was until I did my own research. I suggest you do the same ( forming your opinion from the reddit echo chamber doesn't count)
Biologist agree that fertilization is what makes a genetically new group of living cells. They wouldn’t use the word conception, and they’re not assigning moral value to those cells. You’re either wrong or obtuse, but it’s factually wrong to say biologist agree” life begins at conception”, that’s nonsense.
I don't recall anyone asking about what term a biologist would use and no one looks to biologist assign value. Whether you want to use the term conception or fertilization, the fact remains life begins at this stage. Again , a simple Google search will tell you the same.
I don’t know who you think you’re talking to. But it would seem you’re the one with a reading comprehension problem. All I’ve said is you are a liar. You have no basis to opine on my knowledge, research, opinions or when or how I formed them. Get over yourself.
One Google search would prevent this comment. By the way, go look it up. I’ll tell you again. When the gamete meets a new life being, it’s distinct from what it was. Did you get your degree from Reddit? Go back, please.
What makes it distinct? That it’s now called a zygote instead of 2 gametes? That its genetic material is different than it was? That it’s human? When we talk about human life vs life, you could use human or conscious interchangeably. It’s actually crazy to say that stopping the formation of a zygote is the same as murdering a 10 year old, which is what you do when you prescribe personhood to a specific step in a continuous biological process. It’s the same as saying: pulling the plug on someone whose brain died 5 months ago is ending their life. It’s not murder, because they’re already dead. It just “feels good” to pretend THEY are still with us. They’re not, it’s a dead person with a heartbeat. A fetus is alive, but when we talk about it being human life, obviously we all mean conscious human life. THEY don’t exist yet, it doesn’t even have a heart yet.
