[QUOTE="o_mlly, post: 76792492, member: 434838"] There are several problems with this argument. [LIST] [*]The argument presumes that these qualities are necessary and sufficient to evidence human life. The "sleeping infant" example shows the error of this presumption. [*]There are no authoritative scientific studies that support your claim of "clearly shows" the absence of these human qualities in the unborn. [*]Science does not and cannot prove any positive claims. [*]The axiom that [I]absence of evidence does not provide evidence of absence[/I] must obtain on an issue as important as deciding to kill the child. [/LIST] To refute the basis of your argument I refer you to: [URL="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5499222/#EN0001"]Personhood status of the human zygote, embryo, fetus[/URL] [/QUOTE]
