Line 13:
Line 13: − Well, yeah. Check any medical text or simply ask an eleven year old. − I believe beyond any doubt that human life begins at birth. It is a well know fact that childbirth is a miracle of human life. Thus, the vagina is obviously endowed with miraculous humanizing powers. That should be sufficient proof that the humanity of a person is established as the "clump of cells" descends through the birth canal and comes out a "child". This is called the “Magic Vagina Hypothesis”. (Unless birth is by a C-section…those people have no soul.) Line 25:
Line 23: − So human life begins at some random time during pregnancy. Really! So what brand of pixy dust causes this miracle transformation? Perhaps it is in the water mom drinks. Perhaps it is the angels that come and ensoul the little guy just before he is sufficiently smart to realize it. Yeah, that must be it. + − − By the way, what happens to your "humanness" when you loose your high status of being "self aware"? Like during surgery, in the event of a brain injury, or in senility. Perhaps we should just off you in your sleep since you have then lost your magic version of humanity. − +

On a side note, I wish there was more activity in the debate boards, or am I just missing it? I do love debate, and I realize that talk pages are usually not appropriate for such things, which is why I wish there was more going on around these parts. I'm not sure if this particular subject is especially debatable, since much of it hinges on personal belief rather than empirical fact with verifiable veracity.

Also, a question. Should any syops happen to wander around this way, I was wondering. Where do debate posts fall within the 90/10 rule. As I said before I love debate, but I would not want to violate any rules. I hope that partaking in ongoing debate counts as worthwhile contribution.--[[User:NicholasT|NicholasT]] 09:58, 13 April 2009 (EDT)
==Human Life begins earlier than that==
==Human Life begins earlier than that==
Human life began 6,000-250,000 or so years ago. The gametes in the sex organs are small parts of humans and are just as human as when they have fertilised an egg and grown into an adult, albeit less developed. In the same way that an unattached exhaust pipe is still part of a car, and a new car can be built around it, all cells of a human are in themselves human.
