justify their beliefsthrough the concept that a fetus is only a blob of tissue until it is born,or the statement: life begins at birth. Abortion is not as simple asremoving a “blob of tissue” (as the pro-abortion activists put it) from awoman’s body. Abortion is the destruction, dismembering and killing of ahuman life–an unborn baby. “But it is scientific and medical fact based onexperimental evidence, that a fetus is a living, growing, thriving humanbeing, directing his or her own development” (Fetal Development). A fetus isnot just a blob of tissue, rather a fetus is Latin for “offspring or youngone.” Human life begins at fertilization, therefore it is wrong to murderthe innocent child in the womb. At a US Senate Judiciary Subcommitteemeeting, most scientists said that life begins at conception or implantationof the embryo. No scientist at the meeting claimed that life begins at birth(Factbot). Professor Hymie Gordon of the Mayo clinic stated “‘ . . by allcriteria of modern biology, life is present from the moment of conception’”(Fetal Development). In a 1963 Planned Parenthood pamphlet entitled ‘PlanYour Children’ it states “an abortion kills the life of a baby after it hasbegun. It is dangerous to your life and health” (Factbot). Even thoughabortion is dangerous to a woman’s life, and it kills her baby, PlannedParenthood still offers it as a safe solution. This statement contradictswhat most abortion clinics say. It is not possible for abortion to beoffered to women as a safe solution, when it not only puts her life indanger, but it also kills her child.Not only has science proven that a fetus is truly a human, the simplefacts also confer abortion kills the life of a human being. Life begins atconception because of the fact that life in the womb does not change atbirth. There are no special procedures or changes that occur during birth tomagically change the fetus to a baby. It is already a baby–a human life.”‘If a fertilized egg is not by itself a full human being it could notbecome one, because nothing is added to it,’” said Dr. Jerome Lejeune(Factbot). Most of all the development also takes place before one is born.Of the 45 generations of cell divisions before adulthood, 41 have takenplace before a person is born (Factbot). Fertilization is just the beginningof a long process of growing and maturing. “Life in a continuum. From themoment the egg is fertilized a new life has begun. All of the geneticinformation is present to construct a unique individual. Gender, physicalfeatures, eye color have already been determined. The baby’s heart beginsbeating regularly at 24 days. Babies in the womb hiccup, cry, play, andlearn” (Factbot). Life continues from the day of fertilization until death.Nothing is added to a person during a lifetime
