Let's discuss the "A" word
|
Quote:Well, it is irresponsible to refer to a fetus as a living being. I am a Sonographer, so I deal with viable and non-viable pregnancies more than any doctor that isn't an obstetrician. I've studied a an abundance of medical literature on pregnancies and none of them ever refer to the fetus as a "child" or "living" or "dead". I understand where you're coming from, but aren't these peer-reviewed just opinion pieces? If everyone of them simply changed their minds, then it wouldn't be OK, right? I'm not going to pretend to think I can keep up with you on the medical jargon, but isn't "death" (or the similar) defined as a stop in all coronary and neurological activity? If the fetus has a heart beat in the 1st trimester, then wouldn't the fetus, by your definition, be alive? Quote:It's interesting that we have an overwhelming majority of men here discussing what women should be able to do with their bodies. That's such an easy response. The argument is that they're killing someone else's body. In the same way that children can't defend themselves, those that oppose abortion feel like they're doing the same thing. |
