Are you saying that people with less mental acuteness are less human?
When the vast majority of abortions take place, the fetus in question has yet to develop ANY mental acuities (about 20 weeks in). I'm not saying they're poorly developed, I'm saying they haven't developed at all. They do usually develop some brain activity around the 20 week mark, but to make the claim that it doesn't make a difference if they haven't if they potentially can, I would like to point out that the exact same potential exists within my sperm. And multiple times a day, 250 million of these potential lives (four times more than died during World War 2) live, die, and spill out over the skin around my navel.
