Actually, I don't think of it that way. I don't care for people who project their opinion of me onto me as though it were a fact and it has no place in a debate. I have simply demonstrated that there is a clear and definable difference between your severed finger and an embryo. The finger is the physical result of a genetic code that took time and nourishment to achieve. A finger is a piece of flesh consisting of human DNA. An embryo is not a piece of flesh. An embryo is an unborn offspring in the process of development. Your finger is an extension of you, your body. An embryo - as it is well established - is not merely an extension of the mother who hosts it. An embryo is a seperate entity.
The 'an embryo might as well be a tumor' argument, popular among pro-abortionists, has been refuted time and time again, and not without facts. I will not address this analogy again, because I am tired of dancing around the same tired argument when it has been made clear why it is a false premise.
Aborting a fetus is the termination of a human life. Repeating something over and over again in spite of evidence does not make it true. I have defined what constitutes life. I have defined how a fetus is a human, not just a body part. If you cannot understand that a fetus is merely a human in a different stage of growth from you, I don't know what more I can say. I guess I can point you to a webpage with a multitude of quotes from abortion doctors themselves who admit to being aware that they are killing humans by performing abortions. Maybe if it comes straight from the horses mouth, you might understand why abortion is not simply a 'removing of a possible human'.

A fetus is not a possibility of someone existing. They already exist. How is this not already understood?
The cognitive dissonance in this thread never fails to surprise me.

Quote:If you believe removing the possibility of someone existing holds weight in this discussion then you have to admit that your not having our unborn, potential child is equally as wrong as having an abortion.
