@mexincommando,

If any stage of human life counts as a full human being, when I bust a nut on a towel, does that mean I just killed 400,000 humans? If so I’ve probably killed more than 900 trillion people!

What about when a woman menstruates? Is she flushing humans down the toilet?

You didn't give me better choices to choose from. It was the closest to what I believe in so I chose it. I personally believe conception is birth. Sperm and a females egg are BOTH needed to make a human life. If we were asexual it might be different. We aren't.

ok, so this is human life?

Fertilized human egg
This is what we see the morning after an IVF aspiration (retrieval) when we check the eggs
Male and female genetic material (DNA) is contained in the 2 pronuclei seen in the center


I'm just trying to see where your at, not fucking with you.



Is this ok?

Yes. The egg is fertilized. If given time it will develope into what we are now.

I don't believe we should clone. But if a human life develops from it then we have to treat it like a life and not like a dispenseble tanker of human organs.

There's a lot of issues with what is considered living, non-living or even human. I've caught a lot of flack because I'm an egg donor. A lot of my friends think it's not "god's will" if a couple cannot have a child on their own. I believe that once the baby begins to have actual thought, it's a little human. But do they really have actual data on how soon that is?
