Sad thing is they will always choose to ignore the disparity between these two positions...

(3,168 posts)I cant find any other rationale for why they do what they do, other than they do it to stick it to the commie libtards. Seems to be the only thing they care about! 🙄

(10,212 posts)They have the potential to be, but they aren't, even if they have a heartbeat.
Do you know what also has a heartbeat? Cows, pigs and chickens. And they aren't stuffed inside a person.
This crap that a fetus is a "baby" is NOT based on facts or science. At it's earliest, fetal development begins after fertilization on the eleventh week of gestational age. The supposed "heartbeat" starts at 9 weeks. So the thing that looks much like a fish isn't even considered a fetus when it has a heartbeat. It is still an embryo. As an embryo, it can be frozen and thawed and implanted and still live. Last I looked, you can't freeze and thaw humans without killing them.
So they passed a law to save a fertilized egg and yet the little living babies are left to suffer and die without health care. The stupid is just too much.

(25,902 posts)how many conceptions don't take, result in early spontaneous abortions. Guesses are that up to 50% of conceptions don't result in pregnancies, let alone live births.
And all you have to do is talk to a bunch of women and you'll get lots of stories of a late period that was a whole lot heavier than normal, and that (now that we think about it) might very well have been an early spontaneous miscarriage.
I have known any number of women who've reported such things.

(26,646 posts)It's considered a fetus from about 8 weeks. It's only during roughly the 1st week following conception that freezing and thawing is possible. Not past the blastocyst stage where it consists entirely of undifferentiated cells. (Source: my own experience with frozen embryo transfer.)
I just think that our side needs to be careful about accuracy.

(10,212 posts)later embryo stages with artificial womb experiments with animals. But you are right, it is experimental right now.
But I suspect it is coming soon. So, will they arrest the artificial womb if it aborts? Or will they give more rights to a machine than to a woman?
In the meantime, we let the living breathing babies suffer from the ruinous cost of health care.

(2,595 posts)the ignorant masses they believe they want because of religious brainwashing, and the ruling class undermines the fabric of society. Time for the 99% to wake up. Also, why doesn't the argument that abortion rights lead to fewer crimes ever gets a frank discussion - read Freakonomics by the MIT economics professor. We need to wake up as a country and the democrats need to start winning all elections. We have the numbers and therefore the votes. Elections do have consequences.

But, that makes the case to allow abortion and birth control. No room for more people here.

(50,562 posts)Our "Christians" may want to read the Bible a little closer. Both the sheep and goats parable and the admonition that anyone who doesn't work doesn't get to eat are targeted directly at the kinds of people we have running around this country acting like saying "I believe! I believe!" lets you shit on your fellow man with no repercussions.
