There are no "newborns" before the cord is cut. Nonsense. You leave the mother's body and you've been born. Thats true both in formal definitional terms, and as a matter of every day usage and as a legal matter (kill the child before the cord is cut but after its left the body of the mother and its considered murder not abortion). 1 a: the emergence of a new individual from the body of its parent b: the act or process of bringing forth young from the womb merriam-webster.com Childbirth (also called labour, birth, partus or parturition) is the culmination of a human pregnancy or gestation period with the delivery of one or more newborn infants from a woman's uterus. en.wikipedia.org But while your semantic argument is silly, lets not get bogged down there. Dealing with the substantive point rather than the term used to describe it, do you support allowing the killing of a child that has passed through the birth canal or has been removed from the womb through a C-section, when the cord has not yet been cut? Why should I care about your theological opinions? Because that is 10000 years of doctrine. We don't live in a theocracy. Also its just your interpretation of the doctrine (which doesn't mean you originated it, or are the only one who supports it but its the one you choose). And if we did live in a Christian theocracy (and I'm glad we don't) than current doctrine would be the important issue anyway. But since we don't, current, 100 years ago, 10,000 years ago, whatever, religious doctrine is not a definitive answer.
