Conscience and the Moral Argument as Evidence for the Goodness of God.

An embryo develops something that can actually be described a heart with four vessels that connects to the lungs and major vascular systems at about 10 weeks; roughly the point where the embryo becomes a fetus. About 75% of abortions have already taken place by this point. Before 10 weeks, what is commonly described as a 'heartbeat' is more accurately described as 'cardiac activity', as it's just an electrical pulse and fluttering of the tube that will develop into the heart; not a true heartbeat at all; despite how sonograms are tuned to make it 'sound' like a heartbeat. By the 20th week, 99% of abortions have been performed.

And the abortion rate has nothing (as far as I can tell from statistics I've been able to find) to do with atheism or moral subjectivism; although atheists in the USA tend to be pro-choice; to the best of my knowledge, we don't actually have abortions at a higher rate than the general population. I suspect that it has something to do with getting a good sex education (even if it has to be self-taught) and therefore knowing better on average how to use birth control properly.

Good sex education has been demonstrated to reduce the number of abortions; but the same people who say they want to save the babies are often the same people who oppose teaching young people how not to get pregnant.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
