I read an article once from a pro-abortionist or pro-choice woman. She talked about the pain of having to abort her baby/fetus,because they found out it will come out retarded or something, and didn't want it to suffer having to live thru life like that. Although I don't agree with what she did, I do commend her for having the balls to acknowledge that she did kill her baby,a human life. She said it in those words or something like that! She didn't go PC or try to argue the "it's only a human being after it's out of the vagina" hogwash. She even gave the baby a name.
Now I always thought about this scenario. What if we were able to produce a machine that can simulate the environments of a womb and can actually "grow" the baby, from embryo to full grown ready to pop out baby. Now what if the persons who own that it were a male and female scientist who used their own sperm and egg in that machine.....and they decide they can do anything they want with it, since it's still in the womb technically. Does that baby/fetus have any rights? Is it a human being? Mebbe they can grow the babies in a jar and they can sell bonsai babies for 20 bucks a pop. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Matthew Small" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "CF-Community" <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, October 17, 2005 12:43 PM Subject: RE: Rabbi Kushner On "Pro-Life" > 'For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's > womb. > I praise you that I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are > wonderful, I know that full well.
