@crisw I think when people muddle themselves too much in scientific theory and minutiae, they tend to lose perspective on things. Um, a fetus is a human being my friend.
Again, you overlooked what I said, because what I said makes total sense. You keep saying I need a “plausible mechanism” for how it can feel pain. And I say you can’t measure that, because the fetus can’t tell you. It’s a no-brainer, and by concerning yourself with trying to get scientific measure, you lose sight of what’s real.
It’s just like trying to quantify racism. You can’t. If you’re a white person, you can never really know what real racism is like for blacks for example, because you are not black. Re-read my previous comments my friend, and you will in time realize how much sense I making.
Anyhow, enough has been said here. This comment thread has gone on far too long. I will end my discussion here and not re-visit. So long.
