I think that people make too much of an issue trying to figure out things that are to me as simple as night and day. I mean after all - isn't the Mother a human being? If so, then her unborn child is a human being- Even though it still needs it Mother's help to grow to full term he/she already has their own features, etc. at a very early stage in development. Isn't a human being something that resembles a "man"? If so, then that says that an unborn fetus is also...it has along the way - the features of a little human being..they just are formed quite as well as the born human. I mean afterall if an unborn baby can cry, hiccup, kick, etc. in the Mother's belly - then I vote that it is a child/human-being. People are just too hung up on trying to make excuses to try and make something right - that they know is wrong. If it were right - then why is there so much contraversy over it. I believe when there is something that controversial - it must be wrong. I believe strongly in God and know that no matter how much people try and make these excuses here and now and even get away with what they may not think is murder...their hands will never be cleansed in the Lord's eyes. Because after all one of the ten commandments is 'THOU SHALT NOT COMMIT MURDER'. If a mother considers it apart of her body - then she is committing a form of suicide and that also is not part of God's plan for human beings lives and is wrong.
