res- Harvesting organs? I don't know, I would think that would require thought and regulation, but there is not much difference between taking a stem cell from a few day old fetus and a liver from a several month old fetus.

If (as you've stated), the unborn child does not constitute life, why would we need regulation and thought in order to harvest its organs?

The difference between a stem cell, and a 9 month old unborn child kicking to get out of its mothers womb is profound in my mind.

I would never equate someone who went through a 7 week old miscarriage, to someone who had to go through a 9 month still birth.

The two experiences are profoundly different.

There it is....there you have it....sliding down the slope FULL STREAM AHEAD...

few days----several months----six months----nine months---- geeeez TP, we can breed whatever we want up to eight or nine months, oh lets say a male up to nine months then separate him from his lungs while still in the womb.......

you know it, I know it....there are people that would do that very thing if allowed to operate by your standard.
