There is a lot in you statement, I will attempt to respond to a few issues.

>> I've told you that it's when it first breathes air.

At birth, the baby's lungs are filled with fluid. They are not inflated. The baby takes the first breath within about 10 seconds after delivery. T

It appears your definition supports post birth abortion. Is that your intent?

In the 10 seconds after birth, but before the first breath, the baby is not a human person with rights. If not human, it is property and be treated in all imaginable manners.

It can be killed, tortured, maimed. Have its head chopped off, etc. These a gruesome examples of what is possible with your definition.

Now, a human zygote is a human being development. It is in its proper, natural environment. And it will grow and transform into human being capable of living in a different environment, but still completely upon other humans (usually the mother) for survival.
