"As usual you want to muddy the water and play word games. I have been clear from the very beginning that it is wrong to kill innocent Human beings at any stage of development but you want to twist that into something else because you want to take the focus off the fact that you do support/advocate that innocent Human beings can be killed without any justification. I would try to cloud the issue if I had to defend that position as well, so I understand your dishonesty."

Instead of your phoney misdirection and evasion, why don't you simply answer the questions raised in the post? Is aborting a zygote "INFANTICIDE"? If you do not remark a difference between zygote value and the value of a fetus days before birth..then it is reasonable to assume that you consider the aborting of a fertilized egg to be infanticide as much as you consider the abortion of the late-term fetus to be infanticide. If that is so, then why do you speak only of PBA infanticide rather than of zygote infanticide? If that is not so, then at what point in time do you consider the zygote or the embryo to become an infant--so as to justify your repeated accusations??

This is not a difficult clarification to make. There is no need (and no benefit to you) in continuing to abjure clarity for the sake of evasion and personal attack.

The starting point in all legitimate arguments is a definition of terms within premises. You have yelped a great deal about "infanticide". It is natural for all who wish to explore your "argument" to ask how you are defining an "INFANT". It is already known that you are not defining it the way the dictionary defines it; but that is ok, greg or e. If you have an argument--just tell us what it is? We don't need baton twirling or drama queen theatrics. Just be honest. That is always the best policy.
