A doctor can get a fetus to react to stimulus in as little as a few weeks after conception. That alone proves the fetus is alive. It is breathing in the liquids around it, eating, excrementing, reacting, and thinking. All signs of life. |
See my above post about the brain dead man. You are the one who is ignorant on that point. It isn't reacting to anything. It's a reflex. The same kind of reflex a brain dead person's body reacts to. It takes over two months for a Fetus to actually has any sort of readable brain activity. Up till then it's about as alive a house plant. Alive but not human or even animal level of alive.
