It’s not a religious position at all, it’s a scientific one. The fetus (which of course is Latin for “baby”) fulfils all of the necessary functions for life at the moment of conception and also has a fully functioning human genome at the moment of conception so by scientific definition it is a “living human being” at the moment of conception. Denying this renders being fully human as a completely arbitrary matter which we have seen how that leads only to evil actions (i.e. slavery and the holocaust).
Quote: Believers have no right to impose their beliefs on others
According to whom? If you force a believer to conform to this little rule you have here all you are doing is imposing your beliefs on the believer and thus refuting your own position that people should not impose their beliefs on others.

No, asshole. Atheism is simply a rejection of your superstitious drivel about gods. If you ever bothered to check out the rest of the board you would see arguments about almost every subject among people who think that you and the rest of the jesus freaks are fools.
That does not mean it is not a worldview there old-timer. Christian Theism is a worldview and yet Christians disagree on a whole host of issues, atheism is in fact a worldview, it just happens to be a very deficient and irrational one.
