At the instant of conception, there is a new and unique human
being that never existed before.  Killing that unique human being
is no different than killing a newly born human.  If you can
justify killing a human immediately after it comes into
existance, you should equally well be able to justify killing
a newborn, or a human at any other stage of its life.
   The argument about brain developement is groundless...what if you were,
for some reason, rendered comatose for a week, but capable of complete
recovery after that week.  Is it OK for someone to kill you because
your mind isn't currently functioning?
   Someday we will find all of the present-day pro-abortion rationalizations
as hard to believe as the Hitler death camps...he had his rationalizations
too, you know.
