"You must think that is some sort of compelling argument since you repeat it so often"

Well, it is the ONLY argument you are willing to attack,LOL!!!

I keep saying over and over and over that a fertilized egg IS human DNA (not monkey or fruit fly), and that it obviously is HUMAN life. I have never heard an advocate for human rights argue otherwise although no doubt there are people like you out there on the humanitarian side of the fence!

So if we both agree that the zygote is human life, why do you continue to challenge the point?????

So what do we disagree on? Well apparently we disagree on whether or not the fertilized egg is a distinct individual. Of course, that is not a question of opinion, either. The egg often divides and creates identical twins so in that case the fertilized egg is TWO DISTINCT AND separate individuals (unless you believe they are not INDIVIDUALS???

And I hold with society and with science that a speck of protoplasm without interests, consciousness, ends, or goals is not a "PERSON" with the RIGHTS granted to a PERSON. It is far less than a carrot or a living fluff of pollen. You, of course have a superstitious/religious perspective with an extraordinary emotional drama which keeps you excited to be on the stage.

And we both agree that abortions are unfortunate necessities in the harm they sometimes do to the mother.

I hope you enjoyed slaughtering the fish. You no doubt forgot to thank them for sustaining your bloody rampage across the planet. ;-)
