Either way, then why is an abortion before 16 weeks not okay?[/quote]
As I've expressed before, I don't have a problem with abortions performed very early on in the pregnancy. At 10 weeks of pregnancy, when an unborn baby is no longer considered an embryo, but a fetus, that is where I start to have issues.
But that's sort of irrelevent. My post was intended to contest Adean's notion of consciousness and when a human becomes a human being. I believe that happens at about 16 weeks gestation.
