Fetuses learn languages before birth... So???

The pro-abortion lobby (yes, the ones who say they are "pro-choice" when they mean they're in favour of killing babies) would have us believe that the pieces of flesh which are removed from a woman's uterus during the abortion "procedure" are just that -- mere pieces of flesh, kind of like skin tags. "Let's just remove that unwanted piece of flesh so you can enjoy your life without the responsibilities of motherhoood."

A study published in Psychological Science recently confirms what the pro-lifers say. Rather than being just a type of cyst or tumour, the "thing" conceived within a woman is in reality a small but sentient human being, with faculties of hearing and even learning.

According to a report of the study in the Globe and Mail, newborns who were exposed to two languages while in the womb have already begun the process of bilingual acquisition. As if that's not enough, babies who are only days old are able to discriminate between the languages.

The study reveals that the origins of learning two languages lie so deep that they extend even to the prenatal period. In other words, a fetus has not just life but intellect, while still in the womb. Yet, even though we pay lip service to the right to life, he or she does not have the right to be born. Still we claim to be a logical and civilized society.
