Partial-Birth Aboriton- An Affair to Remember?

New studies show babies in utero as early as 30 weeks, and possibly earlier, have short term memory.

Memory probably begins during the prenatal period, but little is known about the exact timing or for how long memory lasts. Now in a new study from the Netherlands, scientists have found fetal short-term memory in fetuses at 30 weeks.

The study provides insights into fetal development and may help address and prevent abnormalities. Published in the July/August 2009 issue of the journal Child Development, it was conducted by researchers at Maastricht University Medical Centre and the University Medical Centre St. Radboud.

That child will be FULLY aware of the fact that it is dying. One of the child's first memories will be the belief it is being delivered. And while it makes its way through the birth canal, it gets painfully and heniously exterminated.

So a full-term abortion is murder because you are taking the life of a cognitive human being. You can't argue that.

For whatever reason, Mrs. Obama believes abortion should be legal all nine months. Maybe someone should fill her in- she's very intelligent. Just wrong.



Brain waves are recorded as early as 40 days after conception.

Brain function, as measured on the Electroencephalogram, "appears to be reliably present in the fetus at about eight weeks gestation," or six weeks after conception.

Science keeps findig out more and more about embryology and fetal developement. The pre-born are a mystery in terms of scientific knowledge. When we do find new information, however, it always speaks to the personhood of the child in utero.



That is a baby. A human baby. Not a hippopotamus or a cluster of cells.
That is a BABY at 20 weeks. When abortion is still LEGAL. Let's fight this.
