I'm of the opinion that the only thing uglier than an unwanted fetus is an unwanted child.

We have no way of knowing whether or not one or more of the pregnancies which were aborted may have produced the person/people who could have made this world a better place. How many great poets and artists have been aborted? How many great contributions to science have been flushed away with the remains? Will the lessons that died with the aborted ones be lost to humanity for all time? These, are Generations Unborn! We claim no God, and then we become God in our own minds, saying "We know what is best".

I'd say that is hard to justify.

A 'being' doesn't need a brain or a nervous system.

You should know this Chas..

In the sense that he used that term, yes it does.

None. I've never read a poem or seen a work of art created by a fetus.

None. No fetus has ever done any research or written a scientific paper.
Skepticism is not a position; it is an approach to claims.
Science is not a subject, but a method.
