Thought it might prove prove interesting to readers: Man's growth rate has been changing in the last few centuries.

Today's boys aged nine to 14, are six to eight percent taller and!2 to 15 percent heavier than in the last century.

THIS WAS YOU The First Weeks of Life 1-30 Days --blood cell formation has started --major organs forming --primitive intestines form --blood circulating --heart starts to beat 5 Weeks --limb buds develop 6 Weeks --all vital organs present --sex can be determined --full skeletal system --buds of milk teeth appear --brain emitting waves 7 Weeks --baby is perfectly developed with fingers, feet and toes --first movement of the body, arms. .and legs occur 8 Weeks --well proportioned small scale infant with familiar external features --sensory experience possible --kidneys begin to function --bone begins to replace cartilage --will grasp an object and make a fist --fingerprints and footprints visible 9 Weeks --development now is concerned with growth and maturation of organs and tissues 10 Weeks --fingernails develop --turns head away, squints and frowns if forehead is touched --baby is sucking thumbs, fingers and toes 11 Weeks --baby very active -- dancing gracefully, playing as if on a trampoline, pushing against the wall, bending knees and wrists --activity indicates that muscles and nerves are working --baby inhales and exhales amniotic fluid. This is practising breathing motions. 12 Weeks --baby extremely sensitive to . touch, heat, sound, discomfort and pain _... --vocal cords forming --goes through motion of crying --face shows features inherited from parents--baby begins to look like MOM and DAD!' 16 Weeks --eyelashes appear --starts to urinate --vocal cords are complete --primitive eggs and sperm are formed 8 Weeks Conclusion The human nature of the human being from conception to death is not a religious, metaphysical metaphysical contention; but a fact based on scientific evidence. It is no longer a matter of taste to accept or reject the fact that a new life comes into existence following fertilization. We were not tadpoles, indefinable colls, or poorly functioning adults before birth but splendidly functioning babies.. .growing and developing. Human Feet 10 Weeks CAN KILLING EVER BE A "REASONABLE COMPROMISE"? Would Canadian judges and politicians accept "compromise" laws which would allow even A FEW cases of rape, .°¥lU! egree of discrimination, A LITTLE BIT of incest, A LITTLE BIT of mugging, A LITTLE BIT of extortion. extortion. OF COURSE NOT. Why, then, are some of them so willing to accept the LARGE SCALE killing of unborn babies by abortion? Some people are inclined to view as a "reasonable compromise" legislation which would allow abortion with few or no restrictions up to the 20th or 13th week of pregnancy. In fact, in 1987 less than 0.5 per cent of abortions in Canada Canada were performed after 20 weeks of pregnancy and less than 12 per cent after the 12th week. So, what is so "reasonable" about a recommendation which, for all practical purposes, would perpetuate the present situation whereby OVER 70,000 UNBORN BABIES ARE KILLED BY ABORTION every year in Canada? The most shallow argument for "compromise" abortion legislation is that it would be impossible to arrive at a law which would satisfy both the pro-life and pro-abortion camps. But did the absence of consensus among Canadians on another very emotional and divisive life-and-death issue stop our législations from voting against the reinstatement reinstatement of the death penalty in ALL cases, even for criminals for whom many people felt and still feel that it is called for? No, it didn't. WHY, THEN, SHOULD THE NOTION OF CONSENSUS BE ENTERTAINED IN THE DRAFTING DRAFTING OF A JUST LAW protecting THE MOST IMPORTANT RIGHT, THE RIGHT TO LIFE, from the moment moment of conception? Again, some people argue that a law making abortion illegal could not be enforced. This argument does not hold up, for the simple reason that THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A LAW WHICH IS TOTALLY ENFORCED. There are laws against stealing, blackmail, impaired driving, violence, murder; yet prisons remain full because, in fact, these laws are not alyrays obeyed. Ultimately, the most compelling reason against a "compromise" law on abortion is that KILLING BY ABORTION, like any other form of killing, IS WRONG. "Most of all, I shall be voting against it because I believe it is wrong." (closing sentence of Prime Minister Mulroney's speech on capital punishment in the House of Commons on June 23rd, 1987) SHOULDN'T THIS SAME PRINCIPLE BE FOREMOST IN PROVIDING A LEGISLATIVE SOLUTION TO THE ISSUE OF ABORTION?
