so a newborn, or someone with severe alzheimers, or someone in a coma, in your opinion is not an individual because it has no "sense of its identity, attitudes, beliefs, or characteristics." it is not aware of its situation. It doesn't know the creation of it was started from the fathers sperm, or the mothers egg. it never came to a conclusion in thinking it was inside of a women,

When a persons finger gets cut off, that finger still shares this same identical human genetic structure of DNA. The finger shows to be still alive and able to function in many cases after bieng re-attached. (So if the only classification of a human is its DNA structure, than this finger is a living human. If it would be a living human, than it should have rights to. The man should be put on trial for the crime. That is to say, that anything with the human structure DNA is a living human.) |
you forget one thing, a human finger does not have a heart, lungs, brain, liver, kidneys, intestines, a stomach, a circulatory system, and every other part necessary for life on its own. even if all these parts haven't developed enough to support life, they are there.

No, obviously it doesnt, because it has not developed a full personality yet. Sure it can have a potential personality, but not a full personality. |
does a newborn love a great comedy and prefer the blue hat over the red one?

ever heard of John Merrick? he must not be human because i've never seen a human look like that.
by the 14th week of a normal pregnancy there would be no doubt in anyones mind that the embryo is human. it looks just like a little baby.

ever hear of pace makers? diabetic insulin pumps? or even life support?
does being hooked up to one of these mean you are not human?

dependant on its host like children? or special needs people? alzheimers patients? or quadriplegics?
maybe none of them should have any rights because they are dependent on others
i would love to continue, but i'm at work right now.
if i have time i'll finish when i get home.
-edit-
ok, now that i'm home i can continue

man you've beaten this to death and beyond, so i'll post something else about it.
three words "failure to thrive", in bad cases children form the time they are born until they are 2 or 3 need to be tube fed.

LOL, replace the words "a fetus is" with the sentence "the Iraqi people are" and you'd swear to god it came from one of George Bush's speeches

whats the difference between that and feeding your children until they're 18 and leave your house?

No one is going to give the fetus a lethal injection, or strap it down to the electric chair. |
no, the things they do a fetus in an abortion are 10 times worse than lethal injection or the electric chair.
to be torn apart, cut to pieces, burned to death.. or my personal favorite- partial birth abortion: Performed during the late second or third trimester. Using ultrasound, the abortionist grasps the baby's leg with forceps, and partially forcefully delivers all but the head. Scissors are then jammed into the back of the babies skull, and the wound is pryed open. A powerful vacuum tube is inserted and sucks out the baby's brain.

are you even conscious of what you are saying or are you completely oblivious to the stupidity in that statement?

How come when an abortion, misscarriage, or some other early termination occures, that they don't give an autopsy unless the mother was killed also?. |
an autopsy is usually done to determine the cause of death, a suicide would have one done to make sure it was a suicide and not a murder, i haven't actually heard of one being done after an execution. what part of having your brains sucked out with a vacuum leaves a doubt as to waht killed you and requires an autopsy?

A human is an individual. A fetus is not existing as a distinct entity. It is not separate. Making it dependent on survival by living in a host. Remove the host, and the fetus is toast. |
like insulin, stop giving it to diabetics and half the population of the earth will die

ummm.. insulin pumps, pace makers, colostomy bags, life support, oxygen, dialysis... need i go on?

So just like a dead person who has the exact Same DNA structure. He is no longer a living human being. Just as a fetus is not a living human being. A fetus is a "Living human being to come" the title for the rights is a "human being" not a "human becomming" |
big difference, a fetus grows, a corpse doesn't
