Support the RU-486 morning after pill which guarantees no unwanted pregnancy or abortion will occur. ANyone who is against this pill is a bald-faced hypocrite if they say they are against abortions. Which makes the entire religious right a pack of hypocrites. This business about a human being existing right after sex is ridiculous. It's like calling a seed a sapling. It makes no logical sense whatsoever and you know it.

Billions of fertilized human eggs die all the time one way or another in the natural course of things. It's no big deal to lose them. If you want a baby you can always try again. But first you have to wait 9 months.

And the ones who want "their mistake" aborted from the first day they realize they got pregnant, how do they call it?

Not fetus for sure, but I doubt they call it their unborn child either.

Any clue?

AS, no expectant mother ever refers to her unborn child as a "fetus" or an "embryo," even at the early stages of development.

Yes, in the final stages of pregnancy but you rarely see a mother in the beginning stages of pregnancy interacting with her flat stomach, or referring to her flat stomach as a baby. Never ever have I seen a woman do that during the first three months of pregancy.......at least. And the reason is the baby is still fetus, an inert mass more like a tumor than a human baby.

But you all go ahead and pretend its a baby when the zygote is formed so you can get hysterical and threaten to break the law if you don't get your way.
