Cancer is alive. Yes. And it is a good thing to kill it.

You are totally confused.

A cancer has no hope of ever becoming a human being.

A human being comes into existence by a rigid and well studied series of steps.

That is what the abortion debate hangs on: Where and when to draw the line.

It was postulated that the start of life was somehow not resolved and I pointed out that this isn’t true. Human life begins at conception. Period. Many Zygotes spontaneously abort and pregnancy begins at implantation. The fetus develops and organs differentiate. Viabilty begins later, depending on the quality of your nearest neonatal unit. Birth occurs at nine months.

Those are the biolgic facts.

So I get that a fetus will become a human. Is it a human yet?
