Another discussion about abortion

never is it the governmentā€˜s business. It’s between a woman and her doctor and God if she believes in him or her’
Yes it is the government has the right to set limits on abortion because there is an obligation to protect the fetus. And we do and always will.
 
A sperm can be alive or dead. You flunked biology didnt you
Sperm are technically alive in that they are living cells with metabolizing energy and motility, but they are not considered independent, living organisms. They function as specialized, short-lived cells (5 days inside the female body, minutes to hours outside) that carry genetic material.

Key Details Regarding Sperm Vitality:
  • Biological Status: Sperm are living cells that metabolize sugar for energy and move to respond to their environment.
So a woman is a life support system that compares to a machine. Is the machine emotional spiritually and hormonally bonded to a patient like a mother is to her fetus. Thats some machine you have there.
Your ignorance is astounding.

To perform its organ duty, a liver cell cannot be dead or dormant. That much is true.

But there are (by some estimates) about 30 trillion cells in the average human body. That doesn’t make the human body a vast community of living beings.

So, your confusion stems from the somewhat ambiguous meaning of ā€œlifeā€ as between a mere cell and the meaning of ā€œlifeā€ as it applies to individual human beings.

Human life is an emergent, unified process sustained by the organized activity of individual cells over time.
 
do you or do you not think that abortion is a sin?’

The Puritans viewed abortion as a grave sin and a violation of God's commandments. They believed that individuals should take responsibility for their actions rather than resorting to abortion as a solution. This perspective was rooted in their religious beliefs, which emphasized the sanctity of life and the moral implications of terminating a pregnancy. While there were instances of abortion in colonial America, it was generally frowned upon in Puritan society, and religious leaders often condemned the practice.

Legal and Social Implications
During the colonial period, while abortion before quickening (the first noticeable movement of the fetus) was sometimes tolerated, it was still met with significant moral scrutiny. The Puritans' strict moral code meant that any action perceived as undermining family and societal values was heavily criticized
I haven’t discussed ā€œsinā€ at all.

I take your question as confirmation that you once again spoke out of appalling ignorance.

Every cell has all the DNA needed to create a twin. Human life cant be defined in one sentence.

No. It doesn’t. It looks like you’re ignorantly bloviating about cloning.

Human life can be defined very easily.

Left alone, a sperm cell will never be a human being. Ditto for the ovum. But combine those two cells and you immediately have a human life.

Your ignorance notwithstanding, a human cell is not a life.
