    They do not believe it is NOT alive, but that it cannot support itself and for some that is the turning or critical point.

    personally to me it is a question of viability in a sense. Once the fetus would be able to survive without its mother (by being able to breathe) then I believe it has become a baby. they have come full term and not dependent on the mother. I also think do the "end determine the means" fits too. if a baby will be brought into a very poor life then is it relaly better for the baby to be born?

    Is an egg a chicken? no..but is it alive? yes. Is a seed a tree? no.. but is it alive? yes. its not as black and white as you would like to think. it is in the midst of becoming one..yes.. but is it fully a baby? no

    Why do vegetarians believe that plants are not alive, and don't feel pain?

    There are too many people on the planet. Your God will kill a bunch of us, if we cannot be the stewards. We have to decide who lives.

    Who supports and loves the child the mother does not want, the father does not want?

    "A three month old baby cannot support itself either. Please make another excuse why it is OK to murder."

    The Bible talks about fathers killing their children before the age of majority (this is a teenager), with God's blessing. Abraham was so charged to kill Isaac. Or did you not read your bible?
