if this is true, if we are to take the athiestic route, and state that since we may or may not have souls, this makes the abortion argument a little harder to discuss. now we have two definitions of what it is to be alive, 1. it has a heart beat, 2. it has the ability to acomplish tasts.
if we are to go with 1, a child developes a heart very early within its growing phases so it would be considered killing a child if we abortad it even in some of the earliest stages.
if we are to go with 2, its ability to function and to do stuff on its own, what bar do we raise this to, can a child who does not spell right, be aborted, how about one that does not do complex math, worse yet, anyone who believes in these "silly ideas" of a christian God?
