"Admitting that you don't know something" = "means you aren't smart". Gotcha.

DFF: I didn't say anything about the fetus being alive. I said "when it becomes a person". The fetus is alive as soon as it has a heartbeat, but whether it is a human life deserving of the rights given a person is a matter of opinion. I don't think science has the answer as to when a fetus "becomes a person" as that is more a philosophical question than a scientific one. Unless you have scientific proof that a fetus is granted a soul after 3 weeks, 7 days. I'm not aware of that study, so I'd like to see it if you have it.....
