I don't really care what your worst subject is. Mine was English. Does it matter? No. This debate has a biological view to it and if you don't know or understand the basic concepts of it, you should do some research on those first.

I asked this question before and never got an answer but you brought the topic up again. So, my question to you is this: if the fetus according to you is not alive at that time, then why does it continue to grow and follow a certain developmental pattern? Micro-organisms, fungi and bacteria do not think and they do not technically breath, so are they dead?
As for the heart, the heart tube begins at week 5 but then the heart develops in week 6, so yes, you're correct on that. However, breathing and thinking occur well after 6 weeks, so what is your point about emphasizing the heart develops at week 6? If you're going to think, you need a brain, which needs oxygen via blood. So why you're only emphasizing when the heart forms... I haven't a clue.

They may not want that to happen but it's what their viewpoint implies.
