Esquilax, I've already discussed the difference between ontology and functionality. Mistaking what that thing can do with what that thing actually is. As for the bundle of cells, the zygote is actually much more unique than that! It is the intermingling of the mother and fathers DNA to form a new, complete, genetically unique creature responsible for its own biological growth. It immediately begins producing human proteins and enzymes and is already genetically determined if it is a girl or a boy by the type of sperm that has fertilized the oocyte.
Furthermore, if I make a positive claim say its raining outside. (Lets say its not raining.) And you say its not, you are than also obligated to support your negation.
Chuck, once again you are confusing ontology with functionality. In philosophy a one-to-one correspondence with something can be said to be the same.
By the way Bad Wolf, I LOVE Neil deGrasse Tyson!
