Zone1 When Is A Baby Considered Alive?

[TNHarley]

Okay so they're practice breathing then. That's pretty darn close to breathing.

No it isnt. There is no way for something to breath in a womb!

If a baby is using its lungs it's pretty close to breathing and that makes it alive.

No, it isnt anywhere close. Their lungs are filled with amniotic fluid.
Fill your lungs with that, and see if you can come close to breathing.
This is the most asinine debate so far this year.

Comes close in the sense that the baby is using his or her lungs.

So then why do their chests rise and fall in the ultrasound if they're not breathing?

They are breathing, they're just not breathing air. Let's put it this way, we have technology that allows people to breath highly oxygenated fluid now. Do we say they stop breathing just because they're not breathing air?

I know that's why my question was rhetorical.

True.

Zafira Cherry, why do you disagree with this comment?



Yes seriously. They're shown breathing on ultrasounds.



Okay so you got me there.

What is the exact question

How is a baby not alive inside the womb?

Everyone who believes a baby is not alive in the womb must be forced to watch the film, "Silent Scream" -- very graphic film of an unborn fighting for its life against the butcher's weapons.

I never saw it. I'm not strong enough to watch murder if I don't have to.

This is the bottom line. Not alive means no growth, no movement and no maturation. Since all are present in the womb, NO ONE can make the case that an unborn baby is not alive.

Same goes for a tumor.

Breathing literally means taking in air and expelling it from the lungs.

It is not a baby, it is a fetus. The fetus becomes a neonate or newborn at birth.
Second time I have stated this. I am not repeating it again,

Words have meaning.
I think they use terms like "baby" child" or something else to drive up emotion. If you go by the actual definition, a fetus is none of those.

The OP is a female, all of her posts are intended to drive emotion up.
Yes, correct, the actual definition, a fetus is none of those.

How is a baby not alive inside the womb?

Roe v wade and Casey S.C. decisions had determined the mother's choices were hers to make, until the baby to be could survive outside of the womb, which at the time was about 24- 26 weeks. Since the development of tiny tiny needles for premature infants to administer medications and fluids, a baby can some times survive at 22 weeks now, though chances of survival outside the womb are very low, but occasionally possible.

Casey case ruled it was none of the governments bees wax, until the fetus was considered independent of the mother's body to survive...and then the state govt could impose laws or rules if they wanted to.

Same goes for a tumor.

A tumor actually is part of the host body. An unborn baby, OTOH, has unique DNA and is not part of the mother's body.

Why do pro-aborts not want to use the correct term, "human"?
