  • poor little girl forced by her parents to do this

  • a parasitic relationship occurs between organisms of two different species. therefore a baby is not a parasite. For the dumbasses that said that a fetus is a parasite.

  • @galerouth as a zygote, it invaded the woman's uterus using its Trophoblast cells and hijacked her immune system by using Neurokinin B—-so her body won't KILL it, and stole her nutrients to survive and causes her harm or potential DEATH!

  • @galerouth symbiosis- Biology. A close, prolonged association between two or more different organisms of different species that may, but does not necessarily, benefit each member.

    ABORTION IS A CIVIL/CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT SUPPORTED BY THE RIGHTS TO PRIVACY, THE EQUAL PROTECTION CLAUSE OF 14TH AMENDMENT, AND THE 13TH AMENDMENT.

    no human has a right to life or any due process rights by the 14th amendment to use another human's body or body parts AGAINST their will, civil and constitutional rights: that's why you are not force to donate your kidney---the human fetus is no exception.

    consensual sex =/= a legal, binding contract for an unwanted fetus to live.

    "it is also possible for a symbiotic relationship to exist between two organisms of the same species."

  • @FyreFoxXP That is inconsistent with the actual phenemology of our moral beliefs [the point that no possible justification is available for abortion if the fetus/embroyo is human]. Neither common-sense morality or various ethical theories are likely to commit speciesism to this degree. If we one day had some intergalactic, multi-species society, would it be [on a general level] okay to murder, rape, or steal from our sentient [and conscious] neighbours because they are not human?

  • @neoarcadezr Thanks for your sympathy, but I really don't need it, seeing as I chose to do this video on my own. I'm now 15 years old and I'm still making videos and speaking on this issue, so this is entirely my own choice, but thanks.

  • @FyreFoxXP The title of the video is "Are the Unborn Human?"

  • Firstly I want to thank you for your respectful intro, I really appreciate it. Now, in response to your first few arguments, I agree that if the unborn AREN'T human, then there is no need to justify abortion. But, if the unborn ARE human, then no justification of abortion is adequate. So the question is "Are the unborn human?" You bring up many arguments, but if you're interested in scinetific evidence and information, I invite you to take a look at my other video answering this very question.
