Sigh. Let's go through this.
Sure. You tried to make your own speshul PC version of "alive", where living things aren't living if you say the living thing isn't really living.
That is, you're just lying about language. I've got to hand it to you, I haven't seen any pro-lifer stoop that low before, so at least you get points for originality. However, as you're still lying, your argument there is still a big steaming pile. Sperm and egg are still alive, so live clearly does not being at conception.
I'm going to post an excerpt again that I posted to someone else. Please read it:
What about "That's a dumb subjective opinion" is confusing you here? The fact that you share the dumb subjective opinion doesn't make the opinion any less dumb or subjective. The terms "person" or "human being" are social and legal constructs, so those trying to define them by development are engaging in dishonest linguistic revisionism.
I never claimed that "personhood" was scientific. I didn't use that word. I have been talking about the beginning of our lives as a human being, a member of the human species.
They're the same thing.
SCIENCE tells us that.
No, a dumb subjective opinion you keep copying says that. Nobody outside of your cult cares.
Maybe you weren't here earlier on this thread, but if you want, I'll re-post a ton of quotes for you from biology / embryology textbooks, scientists in this field, etc.
And they'll all be dumb subjective opinions. The fact that you can find many dumb subjective opinions does not make them less dumb or less subjective.
What the hell are you talking about? You are all over the place, and you're as clear as mud.
With the eagle example, I'm pointing out that something doesn't have to be a person to get protections. I really tried to make you think there, but you weren't up to the task.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but BIRTH seems to be your point at which you believe the preborn baby suddenly has value and should no longer be killed. Correct? In other words, at any point before birth, the preborn is still killable? If that is not your position, then clarify it, pls.
No, it's not my opinion. Your cult has done a number on you, feeding you nonsense to get you to hate.
I think a fetus increases in value as it grows. All non-liars will agree they feel that way as well. Everyone thinks specks are worthless, and that a 9-month fetus is valuable.
Nope, I wasn't doing that. I'm sure even way back before there were ultrasounds, there were probably at least SOME people who intuitively knew that the preborn baby is a little human being, with value, BEFORE his head pops out of the birth canal.
Sure, crazy people have always existed.
But even if that wasn't the case, even if the entire world considered the birth canal a magical place that suddenly turns a worthless clump of tissue, a dispsoable piece of garbage, into a precious, valuable brand new baby.... that STILL wouldn't make it right.
Ah yes, raving about magical birth canals, standard pro-life PC lingo.
At one point, most people thought slavery was OK.
And today, pro-lifers still think slavery is okay, for pregnant women.
We fight for liberty, and that's just too alien for you to understand.
