[QUOTE="IceJad, post: 76879758, member: 112074"] By denying the life a future to prosper and grow. No knowledge of self now doesn't mean it will not develop one when given the opportunity. In fact all of humans will develop a sense of self even those with mental retardation (they just don't have the same level of cognitive ability). It is this potential that we are protecting. Unlike other cells in our bodies that will never gain sentience, the fetus will. Eventually the fetus will grow into a biologically independent life. We can't judge a life's value solely by self-awareness or consciousness. A comatose patient no longer has self-awareness or consciousness. Same goes for patients who undergo anesthesia. They still have value because all these people have the potential to regain their self-awareness or consciousness. It is a punishment because we prevent the life from growing. And the reason for this denial is nothing short of because I don't want you even if it was me who cause you to come into being. [/QUOTE]
