Fetuses Are Alive
They grow, take in nutrients, have heart and brain activity, etc.

I agree with you 100%. Fetuses are alive, etc, etc,.

I didn't see anything having to do with abortion in your title or explanation... I wonder why everyone else who posted in this column is writing about it... Am I missing something.

Of course fetuses are alive, nobody's disputing that. I think the underlying debate here is whether this proves that abortion is wrong, which it does not. Fetuses are alive like how plants are alive; they breath and take in nutrients, but they cannot feel and they have no nervous system to feel pain. I could go on and on, but then I would be going off the topic of the debate (which I'm technically doing anyway, so...)

Tadpoles are alive.
Some think it is there right to decide if they live or die.
Don't get caught killing them or trying to relocate them, they are aprotected species.

I ADORE children.
All children.
Unborn are alive and most precious, precious children.

I agree, on the basis that it is the truth.

I agree they're alive. I also stay resolutely pro-choice. Until they're outside their mother they're still part of the mother and she is the boss of her own body.

This is true and it is sad that many heartless women out there do not realize this. There are many women who could care less if their fetus has a heartbeat or a brain and they go out there and kill them. There should be some laws created that protect fetuses from murders. Abortion is not the answer to any situation, it is murder. All people need to realize that fetuses are human and they do have rights too. They have a heart and a brain and they feel abortions. Therefore, people do need to realize this and respect their fetuses more.

 Fetuses don't have a brain (and maybe not a heart), at least at the time when women usually abort the babies. The brain is part of the nervous system, and early fetuses don't have a nervous system, which is one of many reasons why I think it's okay to have abortions.

Cows are alive too, that doesn't stop anyone from eating a hamburger. This is a ridiculous argument.

 Eating hamburgers is different from eating fetuses.

Is there anyone anywhere who is disputing the fact that feotus's are alive? They are alive in the same way a lettuce or an amoeba is alive, no one is disputing the fact that they are 'alive'.

Fetusues are alive at conception. As you stated they eat (Well, they suck in nutrients) and feel and can move, They are living, and killing them is wrong.

 Fetuses, at least early fetuses, can't feel. They can't feel when they abort the babies. One of many reasons why I'm pro-choice.

They have human traits like if someone get an abortion, the fetus will move away from the needle or other sharp objects how could it do that if it were not alive?

 Please explain that to me, because I'm not sure that I believe that.
