no, not really. The toddler is unquestionably alive. If a cluster of twelve cells is considered life merely because it is implanted in my uterus what about all the unfertilised ova in my ovaries, don't I have a responsibility to them too? be careful of slippery slope arguments because they can go in more than one direction.

This is an extreme case, but it differs only by degree from abortion. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Flash for programmers - Flash MX Pro http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=56 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:174573 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
