Should parents have the right to end the life of their child even postpardum? It's proven that the fetus feels pain, has a heart beat, feels emotion in utero. It's devesating when we hear of little kids dying in terrorist attacks, but how is that different when millions of children are tron to shreds at the hand of a dr. every year. 35 percent of those abortions are from girls under the age of 15. Scientifically we see life in the womb, but it's justified so the person who made the mistake doesn't have to face the consequences of their poor choices.
I'm curious if there is scientific evidence to support that life in utero is no life indeed hence making it expendable or is it that people are willing to kill so they don't have to be a mom or dad

I say legally because by any other means of willfully taking someone's life against their own is by all means murder. How's it different?

One of the arguments that have arose is that a fetus is not a person. So when does it become a person? after birth? can you honestly justify that? How does a person become a person by being a fetus then transforming into humanhood right when it takes it's first breath? Effing retards.
Car Craze, you're right, he/she can not support life on it's own, but neither can a newborn and that is neglect and murder by legal standards. So, you're point is moot, Not only that, it's ridiculous to justify by saying "well it's not going to survive with out me, so I might as well get rid of it" and it's funny that you use the word "survive". doens't that imply some degree of life in order for something to be able to survive anyways? Thank you for your scientific expertise. You've help prove my point...opinionated and ignorant..that's a dangerous mix

its murder no matter how people twist it to make it seem right ..... for the people who do it how would you feel if ur mom had an abortion .... u wouldnt be alive ... and because she gave you a gift by not murdering you pass that gift on to your child .... the only time it might be even remotely okay is if the mom is going to die due to the pregnancy ... and that is even a small posibility....

Because of the definition of what is truly life is so debated. Until about the end of the first trimester, it's not even a fetus, it's an embryo. It has no sense of feeling, no brain activity, nothing but potential. That's also why a pregnancy is considered into the safety zone once it enters the second trimester--it has made the transition into a fetus.

You know the saying, hear no evil, see no evil. I think people feel that since this person has not actually existed in the sense of what we call existence, never been heard or seen, its not a murder, in the text of which you put it, it is. So its all in one's perception

If You're lookijng at this theoretically, You would have to say that all of mens sperm have to be saved, as this is how to make a baby. Also, and most importantly, It's Women who have to have the child, not Men.

aborting a fetus is not murder.. it cannot survive out of the uterus at that gestation

fetuses aren't people, and already-born children aren't inside their mother's uterus, sucking up her body's nutrients.
