Baby born with anencephaly to please jesus?

[Phil]

I said the fucking frontal lobe would be like having a lobotomy. Fucking Christ. I also made no claims about knowing the brain's anatomy, though I certainly have a working knowledge of it. Wiki link? That had to do with what the brain stem does. Remember, the brain stem acts as a messenger for the rest of the fucking brain. Don't be a dipshit. It can't control thought independently.

You really should stop purposely misreading people's arguments so you can go off on one of your daily tangents. Every day, you start ripping into someone with nary a leg to stand on. Honestly, if you took the rational approach, you would have read the entirety of my argument instead of cherry picking it and putting words in my mouth. You should quit before you go off the deep end again, as you so often have.

Stop your damn lying.

You are completely wrong. If the only thing that was missing was the "forebrain," which includes the "frontal lobe," the baby would simply behave as if it had undergone a lobotomy. It would survive, as all the functions it requires to survive would be possible. Do you know why babies with anencephaly die? It's because even the basic functions performed by the brain stem are not enough. Of course the baby is not conscious or aware of his environment (redundant, but just rehashing your comments). Seriously, read something on the condition and brain function before you try to assert something.

However, the lack of a working cerebrum
entirely rules out the possibility of ever gaining consciousness.

Chowderhead.Here you failed to include the word usuallyas it was a few short lines earlier and as I said, you failed to understand the cerebrum is part of the forebrain.

BTW Shell, the forebrain consists of the cerebrum, cerebral cortex and hemispheres thalamus, hypothalamus, among a few other parts. See why I say google isn't science?

Why are you so quick to argue? Fucking read first. I know what the forebrain consists of. Withfuckingout it, the brain stem is only able to handle certain functions. It is like having a telephone that is not hooked up. See why I say rageaholics should think before they type? Well, I only just started saying that. Thank you for setting the precedence.

Someone in a coma isn't human?

Someone in a persistent vegetative state resulting from evident excessive brain tissue destruction, and thus manifestly lacking the mechanism to even theoretically regain faculty for more than reflexive action, is considered human only out of courtesy to the relatives.

So your first statement that an ability to respond is now being modified to include the destruction of brain tissue? I'm confused, how was any brain tissue destroyed in a baby born with anencephaly? Defining a human person isn't too easy is it?
