There are billions of separate entities in a human body (in your way of thinking). Yes there are billions of bacteria and other organisms in any human body. But if your talking about an organ or a normal human cell as being a separate entity then you are not talking about my way of thinking. When it becomes actually "human" is when it knows a "self". Then apparently in your opinion newborns, esp. premature newborns are not human. The point of physical separation is that it allows TWO HUMAN separate entities to both have FREEDOM. Humans are not always entirely separate from each other. Unfortunately that fact limits the amount of freedom they can both have whether you are talking about a woman carrying an 8 month fetus or a case of conjoined twins that can't be separated without killing one or both. Do you think an egg should be a legal person?? No. The right to abortion is a natural right. In your opinion not mine. Tim
