Amazing. Tim, even if it had a respirator, it couldn't breathe without the umbilical cord. And that's because it hasn't taken on human form yet. You didn't say that "it needs to have once been able to breathe on its own". The criteria you submitted was "it needs to be able to breathe on its own". As for taking on human form, of course it has. It has taken on the form of a human at the fetal development stage. Just as an infant has taken on the form of an infant human, but neither has taken on the form of a pre-teen or a senior citizen yet. When a baby is born, its a fully formed human. It simply grows larger. It changes in ways besides growing larger. The proportions change, the brain and skeletal structure, lungs, and immune system continue to develop. A late term fetus is far closer to the newborn infant than either is to an adult. But even if your statement was true, it wouldn't amount to a refutation of mine. A fetus looks exactly like a human. That's what human's at that stage of development look like. And even if it was normal for a fetus to look like a squid, it would still be a human.
