I really liked your first paragraph. I can't argue with you regarding the second because I'm not USAian and thus live in completley different socio-political landscape.

At what point can it be considered human and not just a small group of cells working toward being a human one day?

This is intelectually stimulating position. But this same line of thought can be traced further into extremes such as eugenics and scientific racism. Because of these historical aberrations that stem from this same principle, I reject this position and thus adopt position that life begins at conception. And trying to discriminate who/what is human is dangerous and should not be done.

Instead of trying to define a point where something is a human based on how much it has developed, because of the associated risks and historical failings, your standpoint is that life begins at conception.

Did I understand correctly?

By that logic, cancer treatments should be illegal.

I do not find much logic in your reply. But fear not, to me you are still human! Have a great day!

Cancer is made of a living human cells growing to its own means. Killing it is killing a human by your logic.

People who eat meat and eggs already make this distinction. You want to get rough and stupid? Then let's get rough and stupid.

I’m not particularly interested in debate. However, I am down for getting rough and stupid with the right person.
