This is a bit unrelated, but I can’t stand the argument that since fetuses are unborn, that makes abortion ok. First of all, that’s such a lazy ass argument. Second of all, regardless of whether you believe it’s alive or not, abortion ends the potential for a human life. No matter how you look at it, the potential for a life will be ended, which is what makes the choice significant. Saying the fetus isn’t alive undermines the weight of a decision to abort, which I think is wrong. People should have the right to abort, but they need to understand the weight of the decision.

Consciousness is something we’ll probably never get a handle on. As of right now there’s no way to measure consciousness. We don’t even know if everyone else is conscious. As far as I know, I’m the only thing that exists. Does some asleep have consciousness? Well yes, there’s brain activity and dreams and what not, but do we know if they are conscious, self realized? No. We can and may not ever be. It’s nearly impossible to gage consciousness, especially at our current understanding of the universe
