[quote]Your proving my point for me: Baby has been changed to fetus. It is not ok to kill babies, but it is ok to kill a fetus.[/quote]
[quote]The biblically supported defination defines anyone who is bound to another or a way of life as a slave. it is anyone who must yield his will to the will or authority of another. according to the bible we are all slaves to one degree or another as such there are rules that govern the different types and aspects of slavery.[/quote]
Baby has been changed to fetus because everything about the thing inside mom IS NOT an infant/baby. It is a fetus. It's not breathing yet. It's completely dependent upon the umbilical cord to get all nutrients. It's brain is under developed. It's lungs aren't developed at all.
Wait, where's the glossary in the bible? I mean one that came with the original texts, not explained after the fact. Who says your definition is biblically supported? Did god put a foreward in the bible? I for one am a slave to nothing except eventual death. Every thing else in my life is an option. A choice I've made. I choose to keep working because I prefer to pay bills and have a roof over my head than to not. Slaves (biblical or any other type) also have that choice. They can do the work they're supposed to or get beaten bloody and watch their families be raped and killed because the babes are too young to work and the woman spends more time knocked up than she does working. So I guess you're right, I'm a different type of slave.
Which brings to mind. Sex slaves, their master's own them. Why do we bother trying to save them?

Thanks to Cinjin for making it more 'sig space' friendly.
