No. It is not my say so. Every embryology textbook states that human life begins at conception. Conception is the beginning of the human life cycle and death is the end of the human life cycle. At any point along the continuum it is fully human.My "extremist" view is that at conception a new genetically distinct human being has been created. One that has never existed before and will never exist again. Science confirms this because DNA confirms this.
Another of your "... because I say so" commandments. Your koranic wisdom on embryology promoted by Keith Moore is a farce.
Roe v. Wade is a consistent position regarding abortion held by most Americans. Most folks consider it essentially a private matter that should be protected from governmental intrusion to the extent that is reasonable. Roe vs. Wade has achieved that reasonability.
On the other hand, fundamentalist extremists like Osama bin bing would abrogate a woman's right to control her own womb.There are clearly controls in place to throttle you.
You need to dehumanize human life to rationalize it is moral to end human life.
I simply reject your koranic experts.

You're trying to persuade others?
Not to the point of losing any sleep about it.
Sometimes ignorant fools in denial make great foils for my ability to reach others who may be less ignorant and more open to the facts.
“Biologically speaking, human development begins at fertilization.”No. It is not my say so. Every embryology textbook states that human life begins at conception.

Clark, J. ed., The Nervous System: Circuits of Communication in the Human Body, Torstar Books Inc., Toronto, 1985, page 99
Hollie's arguments that human life does not begin at conception
Out-of-the-pulpit-and-into-the-womb zealots appear hypocritical from my perspective. Most folks do not support State womb control before that stage of gestation where personhood has developed, and few believe in the extremist "instant baby" notion where conception produces a person instantaneously.
People can believe whatever they choose to believe, but to evoke the coercive power of the State and/or religious zealots to impose their personal impression upon others is antithetical to what most Americans agree on.
Your extremist view and your desire to impose it upon others via state coercion is not the moral position of most Americans. If and when a fetus achieves a stage of development where it is sentient and viable, it is recognized as a person and entitled to legal protection. Before that stage, a person does not yet exist. and the State must respect the prerogatives of the individual upon whom the developing entity is dependent.
Yes, you can cut and paste links to material you don't understand. However, that does nothing to support your extremist views.
I'm always suspicious when religious nutters cut and paste material they have edited.
The extremist religious nutters mewl that a single fertilized cell is a person and advocate that the State seize control of the womb at that point. The vast majority of rational Americans recognize that personhood evolves during gestation as brain waves are first evidenced and independent viability achieved. Thus, Rowe vs Wade is a reasonable compromise.
It's a shame your heroes are such misfits.

My "extremist" view is that at conception a new genetically distinct human being has been created. One that has never existed before and will never exist again. Science confirms this because DNA confirms this.
The DNA confirms it is a new genetically distinct human being.
My definition of HUMAN LIFE is not an arbitrary. Furthermore, it is not just any human life. It is a very specific human life. One that had never existed before and will never exist again. Therefore, it is a specific person in it's earliest stage of the human development cycle and has all of the appropriate attributes that it should for that stage of the human life cycle which begins at conception and ends at death.
Every embryology textbook states that human life begins at conception. Conception is the beginning of the human life cycle and death is the end of the human life cycle. At any point along the continuum it is fully human.
“The first cell of a new and unique human life begins existence at the moment of conception (fertilization) when one living sperm from the father joins with one living ovum from the mother. It is in this manner that human life passes from one generation to another. Given the appropriate environment and genetic composition, the single cell subsequently gives rise to trillions of specialized and integrated cells that compose the structures and functions of each individual human body. Every human being alive today and, as far as is known scientifically, every human being that ever existed, began his or her unique existence in this manner, i.e., as one cell. If this first cell or any subsequent configuration of cells perishes, the individual dies, ceasing to exist in matter as a living being. There are no known exceptions to this rule in the field of human biology.”

A lot of cutting and pasting but nothing supports the Keith Moore Koranic version of embryology.
Further, you koranic extremists on this issue forget that Roe vs. Wade IS a compromise.

A Scientific View of When Life Begins | Charlotte Lozier Institute
"...The conclusion that human life begins at sperm-egg fusion is uncontested, objective, based on the universally accepted scientific method of distinguishing different cell types from each other and on ample scientific evidence (thousands of independent, peer-reviewed publications)..."
“Human life begins at fertilization, the process during which a male gamete or sperm (spermatozoo developmentn) unites with a female gamete or oocyte (ovum) to form a single cell called a zygote. This highly specialized, totipotent cell marked the beginning of each of us as a unique individual.” “A zygote is the beginning of a new human being (i.e., an embryo).”

My "extremist" view is that at conception a new genetically distinct human being has been created. One that has never existed before and will never exist again. Science confirms this because DNA confirms this.
The DNA confirms it is a new genetically distinct human being.
My definition of HUMAN LIFE is not an arbitrary. Furthermore, it is not just any human life. It is a very specific human life. One that had never existed before and will never exist again. Therefore, it is a specific person in it's earliest stage of the human development cycle and has all of the appropriate attributes that it should for that stage of the human life cycle which begins at conception and ends at death.
Every embryology textbook states that human life begins at conception. Conception is the beginning of the human life cycle and death is the end of the human life cycle. At any point along the continuum it is fully human.
“The first cell of a new and unique human life begins existence at the moment of conception (fertilization) when one living sperm from the father joins with one living ovum from the mother. It is in this manner that human life passes from one generation to another. Given the appropriate environment and genetic composition, the single cell subsequently gives rise to trillions of specialized and integrated cells that compose the structures and functions of each individual human body. Every human being alive today and, as far as is known scientifically, every human being that ever existed, began his or her unique existence in this manner, i.e., as one cell. If this first cell or any subsequent configuration of cells perishes, the individual dies, ceasing to exist in matter as a living being. There are no known exceptions to this rule in the field of human biology.”

These folks would claim you destroyed an oak tree if you picked up an acorn. On the other end of the spectrum, you'll find those who equate gestation with a form of unfettered biological tyrrany, and the developing zygote/embryo/fetus/child is subject to eviction by the womb owner at any time throughout the nine month residence.

Your usual habit is to cut and paste material you don't understand. However, you Keith Moore inspired koran thumpers should remember that this thread is about the abortion issue. Your spamming with the charlatan Keith Moore and his koranic versions of embryology is pointless and time wasting.
When your koran thumpers refer to an amalgam of cells in early gestation as a "baby" rational discussion is at an end. Should you attempt to use the power of government to force a woman, against her will, to keep it in her womb until it eventually does develop into a real person, they should be invited immediately to "Take it" into protective custody, give it a name, partake of its company, and let the woman go free.
The attempt by such zealots to impose their will on others as they threaten women into becoming involuntary incubators is a testament to the weakness of the 'moral' position they would impose on others. Were it valid, persuasion would eliminate their lust for governmental coercion.
They are free now to imagine that a fertilized egg is an individual indistinguishable from themselves. Others simply do not share their fantasy.

You have single-handedly discredited Keith Moore and koranic embryology.
You have no scientific basis for saying human life does not begin at conception.
All you can make are ad hominem attacks.
I have presented a dozen different scientific experts who all agree that human life begins at conception. Even the word conception means beginning.

A Scientific View of When Life Begins | Charlotte Lozier Institute
"...The conclusion that human life begins at sperm-egg fusion is uncontested, objective, based on the universally accepted scientific method of distinguishing different cell types from each other and on ample scientific evidence (thousands of independent, peer-reviewed publications)..."
“Human life begins at fertilization, the process during which a male gamete or sperm (spermatozoo developmentn) unites with a female gamete or oocyte (ovum) to form a single cell called a zygote. This highly specialized, totipotent cell marked the beginning of each of us as a unique individual.” “A zygote is the beginning of a new human being (i.e., an embryo).”
Keith L. Moore, The Developing Human: Clinically Oriented Embryology, 7th edition. Philadelphia, PA: Saunders, 2003. pp. 16, 2.
The Developing Human - 10th Edition
“In that fraction of a second when the chromosomes form pairs, the sex of the new child will be determined, hereditary characteristics received from each parent will be set, and a new life will have begun.”

“It is the penetration of the ovum by a sperm and the resulting mingling of nuclear material each brings to the union that constitutes the initiation of the life of a new individual.”

The medical textbook, Before We Are Born – Essentials of Embryology and Birth Defects, states:

“The term conception refers to the union of the male and female pronuclear elements of procreation from which a new living being develops. It is synonymous with the terms fecundation, impregnation, and fertilization … The zygote thus formed represents the beginning of a new life.”

My "extremist" view is that at conception a new genetically distinct human being has been created. One that has never existed before and will never exist again. Science confirms this because DNA confirms this.
The DNA confirms it is a new genetically distinct human being.
My definition of HUMAN LIFE is not an arbitrary. Furthermore, it is not just any human life. It is a very specific human life. One that had never existed before and will never exist again. Therefore, it is a specific person in it's earliest stage of the human development cycle and has all of the appropriate attributes that it should for that stage of the human life cycle which begins at conception and ends at death.
Every embryology textbook states that human life begins at conception. Conception is the beginning of the human life cycle and death is the end of the human life cycle. At any point along the continuum it is fully human.
“The first cell of a new and unique human life begins existence at the moment of conception (fertilization) when one living sperm from the father joins with one living ovum from the mother. It is in this manner that human life passes from one generation to another. Given the appropriate environment and genetic composition, the single cell subsequently gives rise to trillions of specialized and integrated cells that compose the structures and functions of each individual human body. Every human being alive today and, as far as is known scientifically, every human being that ever existed, began his or her unique existence in this manner, i.e., as one cell. If this first cell or any subsequent configuration of cells perishes, the individual dies, ceasing to exist in matter as a living being. There are no known exceptions to this rule in the field of human biology.”

“….it is scientifically correct to say that human life begins at conception.”
Dr. Micheline Matthews-Roth, Harvard Medical School: Quoted by Public Affairs Council
THE REGION: IN SUMMARY; Experts Clash at Abortion Hearings
“Human life begins when the ovum is fertilized and the new combined cell mass begins to divide.”
Dr. Jasper Williams, Former President of the National Medical Association (p 74)
“Biologically speaking, human development begins at fertilization.”
The Biology of Prenatal Develpment, National Geographic, 2006.
“The two cells gradually and gracefully become one. This is the moment of conception, when an individual’s unique set of DNA is created, a human signature that never existed before and will never be repeated.”
In the Womb, National Geographic, 2005
“The zygote therefore contains a new arrangement of genes on the chromosomes never before duplicated in any other individual. The offspring destined to develop from the fertilized ovum will have a genetic constitution different from anyone else in the world.”
DeCoursey, R.M., The Human Organism, 4th edition McGraw Hill Inc., Toronto, 1974. page 584
“The science of the development of the individual before birth is called embryology. It is the story of miracles, describing the means by which a single microscopic cell is transformed into a complex human being. Genetically the zygote is complete. It represents a new single celled individual.”
Thibodeau, G.A., and Anthony, C.P., Structure and Function of the Body, 8th edition, St. Louis: Times Mirror/Mosby College Publishers, St. Louis, 1988. pages 409-419
“The development of a new human being begins when a male’s sperm pierces the cell membrane of a female’s ovum, or egg….The villi become the placenta, which will nourish the developing infant for the next eight and a half months.”
Scarr, S., Weinberg, R.A., and Levine A., Understanding Development, Harcourt Brace Jovanovich, Inc., 1986. page 86
“Each human begins life as a combination of two cells, a female ovum and a much smaller male sperm. This tiny unit, no bigger than a period on this page, contains all the information needed to enable it to grow into the complex …structure of the human body. The mother has only to provide nutrition and protection.”
Clark, J. ed., The Nervous System: Circuits of Communication in the Human Body, Torstar Books Inc., Toronto, 1985, page 99
A lot of cutting and pasting but nothing supports the Keith Moore Koranic version of embryology.
Further, you koranic extremists on this issue forget that Roe vs. Wade IS a compromise. Some may have it that a zygote exhibiting no brain waves or heartbeat (no brain, no heart) is, despite all evidence to the contrary, a person. These folks would claim you destroyed an oak tree if you picked up an acorn. On the other end of the spectrum, you'll find those who equate gestation with a form of unfettered biological tyrrany, and the developing zygote/embryo/fetus/child is subject to eviction by the womb owner at any time throughout the nine month residence. Roe vs Wade is a reasonable solution in principle, but subject to modification predicated upon scientific progress - i.e, an earlier point of viability via artificial incubation.
I have presented evidence from numerous experts that human life does begin at conception.

Now try to discredit them.
Your usual habit is to cut and paste material you don't understand. However, you Keith Moore inspired koran thumpers should remember that this thread is about the abortion issue. Your spamming with the charlatan Keith Moore and his koranic versions of embryology is pointless and time wasting.
When your koran thumpers refer to an amalgam of cells in early gestation as a "baby" rational discussion is at an end. Should you attempt to use the power of government to force a woman, against her will, to keep it in her womb until it eventually does develop into a real person, they should be invited immediately to "Take it" into protective custody, give it a name, partake of its company, and let the woman go free.
The attempt by such zealots to impose their will on others as they threaten women into becoming involuntary incubators is a testament to the weakness of the 'moral' position they would impose on others. Were it valid, persuasion would eliminate their lust for governmental coercion.
They are free now to imagine that a fertilized egg is an individual indistinguishable from themselves. Others simply do not share their fantasy.

You can call a zygote a "human life" if you wish, but we both know you're falsely equating a mere potential with a fait accompli.
I do support protecting against State womb-intrusion by koran thumpers before a zygote/embryo/fetus has achieved personhood, advocating civil rights regarding equal protections in a diverse society wherein majoritarian tyranny is always a danger to individual freedom, and I maintain a conservative laissez faire attitude to Islamic zealots, organized, unorganized or disorganized.

bing claims to have had a vasectomy procedure done for himself ...
Vasectomy — also called male sterilization — is a surgical procedure. It is meant to protect against pregnancy permanently, so it’s super effective.
Vasectomies are meant to be permanent — so they usually can’t be reversed.
bing, why is that not equivalent to having an abortion - - did you get permission for the operation. the gale can still get pregnant latter.
