Be nice to mommies

I'm just saying that by saying the mother creates the 15 trillion cells you put the pro-life viewpoint into jeopardy. If the mother is responsible for the creation of the babies cells then some may draw the conclusion that we believe that the baby is simply tissue belonging to the mother and not an individual being.




Disclaimer: I'm just trying to post debate-esque type comments in here. Mothers are to be taken into the highest regard for the sacrifices they make and love they give for the nine months of pregnancy needed for a child.

Actually, I'm not wrong. The man can't simply watch the land. Not only does he have to own the land, he has to give half the the blue-prints (23 chromosones), nourish the workers (diet), take care of the land (exercise), make sure the right equipment is being used (diet), and so on. The building analogy also works because the man is not the building, but is responsible for it. The building is an entity by itself.

So the first brick in the building could be considered a building in and of itself, right?

Lol. Perhaps not the PERFECT analogy.

One brick does not make up a buliding. According to dictionary.com a buliding is something that is built, as for human habitation; a structure.
