This is a baby at 12 weeks:

That's 3 weeks less than 15 weeks, clearly not some random life form. If babycenter.com is a far right website, they tricked me, with such an innocent name.

Here's WebMD, they have a breakdown of every trimester and week. Here is week 15:

Your baby, from head to heel, is as long as a large russet potato -- 6.25 inches. They're covered by very fine hair, called lanugo, which is usually shed by birth. Eyebrows and hair on the top of the head are beginning to grow, bones are getting harder, and the baby may even be sucking their thumb. Their organs are fully formed now and will continue to grow. You may be able to tell the baby's sex this week with high-resolution ultrasound!

Here's the link to the whole pregnancy:

So tired of being lectured about "science". It's not science, it's "Selective Science". If you based all your decisions on factual science, you should be appalled by abortions at 15 weeks, and at 24 weeks, ashamed of yourself.

Joe Biden in 1974 interview with Washingtonian:

"I don't like the Supreme Court decision on abortion. I think it went too far. I don't think that a woman has the sole right to say what should happen to her body," Biden said during the interview.

1977 letter to Delaware citizens after voting against a compromise that allowed Medicaid-funded abortions:

"As you probably already know, the*Senate*and the House of Representatives finally agreed on language dealing with the problem of Medicaid-covered abortions December 15," Biden wrote. "The 1977 fiscal year appropriations bill prohibits the use of federal funds to pay for abortions '...unless the life of the mother is in danger.' This is the position which I have consisted supported. During considerations of the 1978 fiscal year appropriation bill for the Department of Health, Education and Welfare, the House again passed the same language. The Senate, however, passed a broader definition of the circumstances under which Medicaid funds could be used to pay for an abortion. I did not support this version."

If democrats went 100% against abortion, under all circumstances, tomorrow, Biden would go back to pretending like he's a religious catholic that was always against it. And he was in his 30's when both above quotes were made. The dude is a lifetime rat that lives off of our tax dollars. Biden worships Biden.

Is a baby sentient at 15 weeks?

You know there's a reason they call dead not when your heart stops - but when brain activity ceases functioning.

Same logic applies to fetuses. If there's no brain activity - I'm not feeling guilty about anything.

And if there is brain activity - I'd bet it was at such a stage the mother was planning on going through with the pregnancy and her doctor told her it wasn't viable.

From my previous post:

Below is from the above link.

The brain is a complex organ that controls thought, memory, emotion, touch, motor skills, vision, breathing, temperature, hunger and every process that regulates our body. Together, the brain and spinal cord that extends from it make up the central nervous system, or CNS.

So yes, a functioning brain is there. Also, we've had similar discussions before, and I could be wrong, but I don't recall you ever mentioning brain function as part of your argument.

I'm tired of being told abortion is a necessity in our country. And especially at basically 4 months. Nothing is necessary about abortion in 99% of cases, let alone at 4 months.

We're gonna have to agree to disagree on this.
