"A fertilzed(sic) egg is NOT HUMAN using any defintion..."

Strange; that's not what the biology text books say. What do you think a zygote produced by a male and female Human is, if it's not human; Is it a Martian?

"Human development begins at fertilization, the process during which a male gamete or sperm (spermatozoo developmentn) unites with a female gamete or oocyte (ovum) to form a single cell called a zygote. This highly specialized, totipotent cell marked the beginning of each of us as a unique individual."

"A zygote is the beginning of a new human being (i.e., an embryo)."
