[QUOTE="MunkeySpunk92"][QUOTE="Theokhoth"][QUOTE="MunkeySpunk92"]How? life is life. the REAL difference being one can support itself and maintain life on it's own, the other can't.

Children can't support themselves. Comatose patients can't support themselves. Most homeless people can't support themselves.
I personally believe that if a person is comatose and there seems to be no hope, then they have already ceased living. They cannot even eat without machines. A child and a hobo can support themselves thru the basic needs of life IF they had to. Rare as it may seem it can happen. and embryo left on the side of a road is probably already dead.
Can a three-day-old baby support itself if it has to?
You're missing my point entirely. An embryo needs a constant physical connection with the mother to receive nutrients or it never develops. a three day old baby will not last long on it's own. but it will survive, for however short a time frame, without care.
Also, i keep seeing these posts saying it's OK if it was from rape. fine, but when your main anti-abortion argument is not parents ***ing up, but rather that even an embryo is a life. Then how does how it was conceived matter? does a rape embryo differ from a screw up embryo?
