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.
