They can do math, so are they people yet?

A new study finds that Baby Brains are wired for math. They found that a baby already has a decent concept of basic mathematics, identical to an adult human brain. Given that this is already true in infants, we can assume the same is true for at least late term preborn infants, maybe even earlier–difficult to test while in utero.

Yet a 9-month preborn baby can be aborted with no legal consequence because the baby is not a person. If they can do math and still not be considered a person, then what does it take to pass that test?

For me, I say David answered that question around 1000 B.C.:

(Psalms 51:5, 6) Behold, I was brought forth in iniquity. In sin my mother conceived me. Behold, you desire truth in the inward parts. You teach me wisdom in the inmost place.

If we can be sinners at conception and learn from God in the womb, we must be people from conception.

 




Pro-Life hypocrisy

March 25 is the feast of the Annunciation of our Lord, which is basically the celebration of Jesus’ conception in Mary’s womb. Do we celebrate it? Mostly, no.
But think about this: the annunciation is the moment that the promise of the Messiah was fulfilled. This is the moment when God squeezed Himself into a single cell, a zygote.
We believe that life begins at conception, but we don’t celebrate accordingly. We celebrate Christmas, which isn’t nearly as big a deal as Jesus’ incarnation, which occurred at conception.

Something to ponder, anyway.
