I think you missed my point. A rock has potential for life if you rearrange it sufficiently. I can't help but value the life instead of the mere omnipresent potential because that's how I see the world.

The appearance of brainwaves is another logical boundary. I'm not a vegetarian so I can't start respecting the lives of nonsentient beings without feeling like a hypocrite
Will a rock turn into a fully functional human being if you let nature take its course? I can see brainwaves, I'd probably agree to meet halfway at some point, but I think late term abortion in general is horrific.
