Magnumhood, the problem with your position is that there is absolutely no agreement on question of "when does life begin?"
Uh huh. So, do you want to be the one who decides where that point is, or should we assume that when the sperm fertilizes the egg, and the cells begin to replicate and then specialize, that life has begun? I won't make that judgement - I believe life has begun when that egg starts replicating and the cells begin to differentiate. Then we can be 100% sure, without having engaged in all the useless semantic exercises in an attempt to dehumanize a baby that is in vivo.
You can "decide" whatever you like for yourself. You just have to realize it doesn't apply to everyone else if they happen to disagree
One shot, one kill........ It saves a lot of ammo!
