RE:it does not have the true hallmark of humanity

Which is what the desire to live. The ability to consider oneself worth living. You have an arbitrary definition of "humanity" which is based on nothing other than utilitarian convenience (i.e. you consider life to begin outside at birth, but for no other reason other than other points in one's life are more difficult to define).

RE:You keep trying to blur the distinction between fetus and baby

Would you care to elaborate on the distinction. For instance, when does a "fetus" become a "baby" At the time of birth. How about when only say 1/2 of the baby is out of the canal? 6 inches? All but the left foot? A toe?

I'm smack dab in the middle like usual

But of course, anybody who disagrees with YOU is extreme.
