  • Do babies have thoughts in the womb?

    If babies can think and feel that proves that they are not only alive but cognizant.
    So is there any evidence that babies can do these things?

        There's no evidence for cognizant thought on the Internet - maybe we should take the fact that babies in utero don't use the Internet as evidence of cognition?

          Whether babies in utereo have enough experience to have real meaningful thoughts does not really matter. Our thinking is primarily based upon experience so lack of thinking, or reduced levels of thinking. only point to the experience limiting factor of still being in the womb. This does not have any bearing on supporting the abortion issue.

          I understand, Wall, that this was not in any way your intent. Just me making the point.

            Are babies after they are born void of cognizant thought? Why not?

              Their thoughts/dreams would likely be much different than ours due to lack of language and visual stimulation. My tounge in cheek reason for why we don't remember our early years is that it's in a different format that can't be accessed by an older brain. Meaning that if a child had the language skills to tell you what the were thinking, they likely could not tell you what they were thinking when they were little babies. A 32(34?) week fetus is psychologically the same as a newborn, but they still have some developing to do. And the passive immunity shot from mom is in the last few weeks of pregnancy.
              If it weren't for the Resurrection of Jesus, we'd all be in DEEP TROUBLE!

                That's kinda weird, but, at the same time, if babies thought like we do, they would be horrified that they were confined to such a small space. Yeah, I'm claustrophobic.
                The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

                    I mean babies may not be able to analyze things but they can feel. They feel love. They feel pain.
                    If they can do that how can people justify abortion?

                      They don't see them. For some reason, people can't see how much trouble they will be in for hurting/killing the least of us.

                        They don't know any different. Little babies actually like being swaddled/held snugly. It reminds them of the womb where they were never hungry, cold, or thirsty. that doesn't mean there's no stress though. If Mom is stressed, junior will be stressed also due to stress hormones crossing over to him/her.

                          I mean with adoption being available I just cant see it. The baby can go to a good home.

                            There's a lot of misinformation. Newborn babies have the highest demand for being adopted. You know how every wants a puppy or kitten, so the older dogs and cats end up not getting adopted? Similar thing with children. Except no one is advocating murdering foster children who aren't adopted. I hope that NEVER HAPPENS!

                              If it's all you have ever known; I suppose it wouldn't be so bad.
