I'm assuming you're not saying Tolkien based his description of Bilbo on that Leonov. Are you saying the illustrator based the illustrations on Leonov? Does Leonov actually say that? Or just that the description and illustrations

Your original comment was "You're making his point. 4br in only 2k sqft? For 2M? Please..." That's not the same point as sblocal123's point. Regarding the real estate location point, yes, you and caminante made the

Is a newborn conscious? Is a dog conscious? If we want to value a newborn's life more than a dog, I think we need to consider more than just consciousness, but another factor: humanity. So now there are 2 factors: continuation of consc

It doesn't help. I don't see how that's related to either the article or the comment. Except of course that this Wikipedia article is off topic from other discussion, and thus fits with the article's theme of off topic d

That's a good point. However, it doesn't mean fertilization isn't the point when personhood begins. When choosing the point at which personhood begins, we should look at the stages of development to identify the most likely c
