<But they aren't arguments which can be refuted. Also gratuitous assertions can be gratuitously denied.>

Sure, and we can agree that each other are wrong... that way one can crawl behind logic structure rather than show any truth to the matter... even though structure is irrelevant to the situation.

<By the definition you provide, a fetus is a separate organism.>

No it's not. You apparently didn't read the definition.

<Not that its highly relevant but that statement isn't true.>

Yes, it is... and it IS true.

<Similar statements are at times made when a spouse>

Not anywhere near the same intensity.

<<Similar statements are at times made when a post-birth child is born.>>

Yes, supporting the assertion.

As you stated to Solon:

<<The human is the whole organism>>.

Exactly... NOT a fertilized egg.

<<You might respond with "a skin cell has a full set", but a skin cell is part of a human,>>

Yes, as is the fertilized egg.
