mother-child-life:Found this little gem on Facebook. Other than the blatant disrespect of our development and all the lovely dehumanization, this is chalk full of down-right lies. Apparently this is an extremely magnified photo of a 5 week old embryo. This is what the creator of this image says is the true ‘face’ of abortion. This makes no sense though, this is not the after math of an abortion this is what the unborn looks like before an abortion, before they can be torn to pieces and separated from their mother and thrown away like garbage. Also, notice how they put the word face in quotes, applying that if a humans face doesn’t look like the “typical” or “normal” face, it’s not really a face. This is just an underdeveloped face, that’s all. One day this growing, developing person might have bright blue eyes, or maybe deep shades of brown, a button nose, or a slender nose, perhaps thin shapely lips, or pouty lips, who knows? We all looked like this at one point though, everyone you’ve ever loved, admired, shared laughs with, hugged, and smiled at looked just like this at one point in their life. So, yes, I find this extremely insulting. The person who made this says that pro-life people think once a women gets pregnant she should “lose her rights as a citizen and as an autonomous human being”. This is obviously a huge load of crap. Nobody loses rights once they become pregnant and an unborn baby doesn’t “gain” more rights, they receive equal rights for being a human being, just like their mother. Since this photo tries so hard to dehumanize a 5 week old embryo let’s learn some fun facts about their development, you know, all the interesting stuff about them! At 5 weeks arm buds and feet are forming, with webbing in-between the toes and fingers, within a week they’ll begin to move them. A 5 week old embryos heart is beating twice as fast as its mother, the heart is beginning to divide into 2 chambers. Their tongue and vocal chords are already beginning to form. See, as a person who values human life at every stage, from conception to death, it doesn’t matter what someone looks like. You could be missing both eyes, your nose, your mouth, teeth, tongue, ears, etc and I’d still defend your right to life. There’s something wrong with your movement when you have to use such dehumanizing language to justify it. Every time someone has used dehumanization to justify the killing of human life they’ve been on the wrong side of history. -- source link
