Is that your position? That is the wrong formulation. Humaness is innate in the sense that it apertains to any human fetus but it is also not present at inception. It develops progressivley over time. There is no threshold over which a fetus crosses to become human but clearlythere is a range of time over which it changes from something that is potentially human to something that is human > > _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
