Mm. If I talked with a pregnant woman at 3 times during her pregnancy: Once at the end of the first month, at the end of the fourth, and then again at the end of the eight, during which of those conversations am I having a conversation with a woman who's put on a little weight, or who is carrying a human being inside her.
As soon as she was aware she was pregnant she would likely say she has a precious life growing inside her. The maternal instinct in nearly every woman on the planet is undeniable even when in thier childhood.The overwhelming majority of women would say the same thing unless they harbour little or no maternal feelings for the new life developing inside them.

You sure? I was under the impression that a human life was actually a martian life.
What in the world are you talking about?

That's not what I was referring to.
As two stances become ever more closer or similar, it becomes more complicated or lengthy to debate them.
It shouldn't be complicated at all.Pro-choice advocates and lawyers have complicated this whole debate.You are willing to say that life began billions of years ago in some promordial ocean with a little chemical reaction and little bit of lightning..and the first molecules started to self-duplicate and there you have life. But you are hesitant to conclude that an embryo's beating heart at 4 weeks is not life let alone a potential human being.
As DBL rightly stated that religious beliefs notwithstanding...science has proven that a human life begins long before full term birth. That should settle the whole argument..
