Ahhhh, but there's the rub! Anti-abortionists contend we must know that point right down to the millisecond. "Excuse me... what are you talking about?" What part confused you? What pro-life person here is arguing that we must know anything in the process of a pregnacy down to the millisecond? Leaving the womb is when you first breath with your lungs.....major distinction between the fetus and the child. I don't consider breathing an important consideration. If you hold your breath your still human. If you are choking and can't breathe your still human. If some technological method was set up to keep your body properly oxygenated without you having to breathe you would still be human. A heartbeat would be a better sign then a first breath but its still not a good one (someone in cardiac arrest or who has a machine pumping their blood is still human). Tim Tim
