The Unborn Baby Never Stops Being A Human Being / Pro-Life Anti-Abortion Video PSA

The Pre-Born Baby Never Stops Being A Human Being Video PSA. It can not be acceptable to have an abortion in any situation, because no matter what the situation or hardship is, the baby never stops being a human being. You can't say, "It's wrong there but we accept it here under these circumstances", because the baby doesn't stop being human based on the situation of the mother. Even though life is hard sometimes -- and for the mother it might be difficult to keep the baby, it is important that we never use the killing of other people as a solution. All images and text from Fair Use. Music from the Music Bakery. In April 1996, and again in 1997 President Bill Clinton vetoed bills which would have banned partial-birth abortion. But new scientific evidence continues to emerge supporting the realization that the unborn children killed by this procedure likely experience a degree of pain too awful to imagine. Our understanding of the development of the fetal nervous system and fetal pain perception has only crystallized over the past decade. It is now clear that the network which conveys pain in humans (the spino-thalamic system) is fully established and connected by 20 weeks. What has become even more apparent is that premature newborn babies, many born at the same gestational age as late-term aborted babies, likely feel even more pain than babies delivered at full term. Elements of the pain system first appear much earlier, beginning with pain receptors under the skin of the face at eight weeks and early connections within the pain pathways of the spinal cord at seven weeks. The spinal cord is the "highway" that carries pain information from the limbs and trunk upward to the brain. By 20 weeks, the human fetal brain contains the full complement of one billion neurons in the gray matter, waiting to receive ascending pain impulses. The final connections between pain fibers and the gray matter neurons are completed in the period between 20 to 24 weeks. This is how we as adults "feel" pain; there is no reason to believe this is any different for humans inside the womb. Observations of human fetal response to painful stimulation support this. A 1994 study published in England by Professor Nicholas Fisk showed that two types of hormones released during pain and stress rose to high levels when blood was drawn (for necessary testing) from the living fetus by puncturing the abdomen. As a "control" experiment, blood was drawn from the painless umbilical vein source in other cases; these unborn babies did not release the pain and stress hormones. These observations were made in fetuses as early as 19 weeks of age. An earlier study by Dr. Joachim Partch of Kiel, Germany, detected similar hormones from the amniotic fluid as early as 16 weeks into the pregnancy. Emerging research data from a number of studies now suggest that the late second-trimester fetus is capable, in fact, of experiencing more pain than babies born at term. At a conference on fetal and neo-natal pain held in Toronto in early April 1996, Dr. K.J.S. Anand, assistant professor of pediatric anesthesia at Emory University in Atlanta and one of the world's foremost authorities on fetal pain, reviewed a number of recent observations. The mechanisms by which the second-trimester fetus perceives pain are well established before mechanisms designed to blunt pain, which do not begin to develop meaningfully before 28 weeks. These disturbing revelations raise issues which should ripple well beyond a basic science discussion, beyond even the established battle lines of the abortion debate itself. The question arises, how can we allow this?

Hmm.. I am pro-choice, and so far, this is the only Pro-Life video that has made me think or question my standing.. Nice work! =)

[rosaryfilms]

thank you very much!

[LesWilis]

Duh! Well done.

[rosaryfilms]

LesWilis, thanks!

I'm in the same situation. I'm 17 and 5 months pregnant. I've been eager to have kids though I'm very young.. So my older boyfriend made me pregnant, on purpose, and it was something we both wanted. When I told him that I was "feeling pregnant" he started to cry and told his closest friends. I don't understand what happened next. He started to deny that I was pregnant, even if the test came out positive. He's still denying me and is now an alcoholic :( But I'm keeping my child no matter what..

@Gingagirl One year later . . . do we have an update?

[cancerslugg]

This is fucking stupid. What if the mother gets raped? She ends up having a kid that she can't afford to care for and eventually she ends up depressed, in the hole for money, and with a kid she can't afford to take care of. It's worse to outlaw abortions than to have them readily accessible. People die from giving birth sometimes, do you think if someone gets pregnant and is told that birthing the child will kill them then they should just die and have a baby that'll grow up motherless? Idiot.

[TheScoobNoob]

How did I get here, wow...

[tomdenman]

Abortion really depends on if you value human life or not, of course for many atheists, they see human life as objectively meaningless, so abortion is perfectly acceptable. But if you're a theist whole values human life, in every situation - abortion is wrong. A human life is being taken away and that isn't acceptable no matter what situation the mother is in.

[qazmatron]

It's alive. It's human. It's human life. So is a tumor. Abortion and infanticide are a painful and PRIVATE decision of the parent(s), whether and how to destroy their unwanted and defective offspring. Enforced pregnancy is murder. "Before the rapist begat you, I knew you. Before your mother poisoned you with alcohol and drugs, I knew you. Before I malformed you in the womb, I knew you. Before you developed without a head, I knew you. Before you failed to implant and died unnoticed, I knew you."

@dustygirl122 The abortion industry on cares about profit.

[DJM4EVER1]

vonhelton is the good reason that abortion should not only be legal but in cases like his recommended

my mom said these exact same words to me! :)

Dr. Edwin Vieira, Jr. writes: "The underlying premise in the arguments pro-abortionists give against fetal personhood is that non-persons can change into persons. They are saying that a living being can undergo a radical, essential change in its nature during its lifetime. But there is a logical problem here. If the change was biologically inevitable from conception, given time, then this change is not a change in essential nature. This is because if the being naturally initiates the change,

[teton99]

It must be in its nature from the beginning to do so. If it is in its nature to do so, then despite any changes in such characteristics as independence, place of residence, physical development, or demonstration of mental ability, what the being is in later life is what the being is from the beginning of its life. This means that if we are persons with the right to be free from aggression later in life, we are persons even at conception. A False Assumption," Libertarians for Life
