Is it really true that everything that grows is living, therefore life starts at conception, therefore abortion is murder?

I really don’t think so, but this discussion came from another thread and I didn’t know what to say to that.

Everything that grows is a living thing.
A tree is a living thing, but it's not a human.
A carrot is a living thing, but it's not a human.
A fetus is a living thing, but it's not a human.

This should not be about politics, it should be about a woman's choice, unfortunately, male politicians and religious politicians, want to make it about politics.

I don’t understand the reasoning of someone who is hellbent on saving every fetus, yet doesn’t give a shit if the festering turd lives or dies after they are born...

@Deadcutie And the same people that want to save every fetus also complain about black people on welfare and illegal immigrants “pooping out babies” so they can get more money. They think of non-white babies as poop, yet those women better not get abortions!

@JP1119 exactly my point.. not that I’m for abortion, but if you are anti abortion you should be pro gunn control , pro welfare, pro free medical, pro free education pro anything that allows that child to grow and live, and anti anything that brings harm

No condom = no sex...

Yet, we debate as many have sex with no protection. Why? Not have this talk about protection,then no abortions are needed. We save life, such as Aids, STD's, on and on.

Yes, condoms can tear, still better than to abort a human.
Maybe technically yes. But whether a fetus can feel pain is a different discussion. I think that’s the basis for an abortion to be considered ethical or legal.

NO and when you are a women let us know your opinion if you have a termination

@nedkelly I mean, I’m inclined to agree with you, I’m pro-choice, but this guy said abortion was murder, and I said, “Okay, Mr. Knowitall, when does life begin and how do you know?” And he said it starts at conception because that’s when the “baby” starts to grow. Can you think of anything else that grows that we don’t say is alive? I came up with crystals, but crystals don’t perform mitosis.

@JP1119 A man can have his opinion but at the end it is just an opinion and nothing else, the lady hass the choice to terminate the baby and she will have to live with this forever

So, killing anything that grows is murder 🤔

A cow is waaaaaaaay the fuck more sentient and conscious than a 1st-2nd trimester fetus.

I know people like me and that person who said so,are a bother now, and many would prefer as silent, but we will be not.

No need to say anything. A lot of people have nothing to say on abortion.
Sounds like the start of a fabulous argument
