You listed a small collection of alleged textbooks. You quoted nothing. The fact remains that until a fetus is viable outside the womb, you cannot call it anything other than a collection of cells, often subject to spontaneous abortion (otherwise known as miscarriage).

As I've written before, if you are a complete amateur and don't understand a subject, don't demonstrate the Dunning-Kruger effect by writing a book about it and proving your ignorance to everyone else!
