in·fan·ti·cide

noun
1. the crime of killing a child within a year of birth. Nice willful omission. The full definition is...
in·fan·ti·cide
inˈfan(t)əˌsīd/
noun
1.
the crime of killing a child within a year of birth.
2.
a person who kills an infant, especially their own child.
I'm very aware that the definition of Human has been amended to allow this practice to be 'legal'. I get it.
What was not included was no necessary and changes nothing.
What you ignore is the phrase "within a year of birth".
By definition, abortion is not infanticide.

I have I have said I believe that everyone deserves a fair and equal chance, I have said I believe abortion is murder as you are preventing someone from living. How are these not arguements. I have said at 24 weeks a baby can survive birth.

Fine, let's agree that at twenty-four weeks the fetus is human. Before that, no.

Only in late-term pregnancy is that true.
Please define what a human being is and provide a reasonable argument.

They won't ever actually define what a human being is because we would be able to pin them down on it and point out what is wrong with it.

'You can have all the faith you want in spirits, and the afterlife, and heaven and hell, but when it comes to this world, don't be an idiot. Cause you can tell me you put your faith in God to put you through the day, but when it comes time to cross the road, I know you look both ways.' - Dr House
“Young earth creationism is essentially the position that all of modern science, 90% of living scientists and 98% of living biologists, all major university biology departments, every major science journal, the American Academy of Sciences, and every major science organization in the world, are all wrong regarding the origins and development of life….but one particular tribe of uneducated, bronze aged, goat herders got it exactly right.” - Chuck Easttom
