No, special protections.
They aren't a baby or a person until they are born, according to the elgal definition.
I have nothing more to say on this matter.

However, the inverse was also true. The Nazis also aborted and euthenized people because they were "parasites" "burdens on society" and "unwanted." The exact same reasons we have heard in this very thread.

Every child deserves a chance. If not, then it speaks poorly of our society in general. Insuring rights provides for the opportunity to achieve. Not a guarantee. But a chance. If my wife (at 43) found herself pregnant, we'd welcome the challenge.
Then I'd be happy for you sincerely.
Thankfully for me neither you nor the government get make choices for our family.
If we take away one persons reproductive choices by law we can just as easily force the opposite a choice on another. No right to abortion would likely as not end up with the government telling people when, where and how many offspring they can have. Would it ever be with whom...who knows. Mission creep…

BUt that does not make sense biologically. Are you suggesting that something magical happens in the few inches the child travels down the birth canal? Why is someone not human but suddenly is human a few moments later when the only thing that has really changed is location?

Alright Genius,
Pick which one of these is the human:
What don't you get that "looks" are not everything in science.
My god...how ignorant.
Do you really believe biologist go purely on the looks of things??? I hope you never go to a doctor that only goes by the looks of things...you may have cancer and never know it.
There is a very easy way to tell which one of those are human...which one was taken from a human...and there you have it...you have identified the human. Not to mention, I'm sure a trained biologist could absolutely identify the human just by the looks. This is really a pathetic argument...childlike almost.
Please don't tell me that you can take a fish zygote, implant it into a human uterus, and it will turn into a human.
Please nixie, for your own good...just stop...it's painful to watch you display ignorance like this.edit on 24-8-2012 by OutKast Searcher because: (no reason given)
In the present state of science, hybrid embryos are produced as research tools, and only kept alive for 14 days or fewer. The article below only deals with the ethical issues of this case, and not with the ethics of producing new creatures that are a combination of animal and human.
hybrid embryo is a mixture of both human and animal tissue. There are several types of hybrid embryo (listed below), but recent controversy has focused on cytoplasmic embryos.

I've put a fetus inside a big pickle jar (that's what they do in the hospital morgue) and their babies.
Ever see one, touch one?
So since human life begins at the first cells, and all the first cells are essentially the same, you better change your view on what point human life begins.

No in both cases the family called a funeral home to come get the remains.
They both looked like babies.
And you would want to buy a dead baby?
Because im a pro-choicer and i eat dead babies for breakfast.
