Calling a zygote an "innocent human life" is a religious position. The zygotes don't have much of an opinion one way or the other, by most conventional definitions of "opinion".

I am only talking about zygotes in this discussion.

The discussion of at what point abortion becomes infanticide may take place later. (We've talked about it here many times, in fact; right now, however, i'm interested in zygotes.)

Do you feel zygotes have opinions, and are children, and that women should be forced to gestate them against their will by the arm of the state?
