It certainly does not need to be "sentient" or "truly alive" by E's classification to be human. I guess "truly alive" to you
would be E burning her bra at a street party. But is that really sentient? >>>

You have quoted a phrase, "truly alive," as "E's classification." I challenge you to produce any post of mine with that phrase or classification in it. I have never used such a phrase or evoked such a classification in connection with the abortion discussion, since it is obvious that all cells that aren't dead, including plant cells and mouse cells and those constituting tumors, are "truly alive."

This is a specific direct accusation that you have misquoted me, and an objection to your doing so.

I believe you to be habitually dishonest. This is a chance to prove that in this case, at least, your "quote" was not a fiction.

Show me where you got your quote or admit it wasn't a quote of me at all, only a phrase it suited you to present as one.
