I can't see how the death penalty can be a punishment as the one that needs the punishment cannot experience the punishment. Cutting off body parts is a punishment, executing someone is just a preemptive measure. (or revenge)

How is this not admitting the truth? Genetically, both the baby and your hair belong to the same species.
My hair has my genes, the baby has it's own. Why is that so hard to concede?
I thought you were having difficulty calling a fetus a human. Is my perception correct?
