A baby is a person when he is no longer part of another person's body.
a person is always a person untill death. and a person is never a part of another persons body.

LOL. A FETUS/ZYGOTE/EMBRYO is a part of another person's body...attached to the mother via the umbilical cord. The placenta acts as a transfer station for waste and nutrients. An unborn human cannot exist without BEING ATTACHED to its mother via the UMBILICAL CORD unless it is born after the 25 week mark, where if it is born that early it will require life support to SUPPLEMENT what it would have been given by its mother VIA THE UMBILICAL CORD. And a person is NOT a person until it is ONE, meaning individual of another. Not dependent on another for oxygen, food and waste transfer at the cellular level. A fetus is not a PERSON. IT might be a human, but until it takes its first breath, it, by law, is not considered a person or a being.
human, human being, person all mean the same thing. why do pro choicer insist on oppressing people with their made up definitions? human beings are created and have a continuous lifespan untill death. and no made up definition that pro choicers inflict us with will change that fact.

You are incorrect.

I believe you are the person making up definitions to suit your own agenda - a z/e/f is NOT a person (I have statute to back me up on this one).

I think my last Chinese takeaway had more intelligence and autonomy than whatever's in that dish. And it was definitely tastier!

of course a gorilla fetus is not a person of course a chimpanzee adult is not a person. but a human fetus is very much a person as is a human adult very much a person. because humans are people and people are persons.

Who cares, criminy. Words. Seriously, don't you all just want to throw in the towel? Call it whatever you want it doesn't change what it actually is. See Photo.


Let's go back to "Don't like abortion? Don't have one." Let me live with my decisions since you'll never have to. The arrogance of prolifers. Force you to give birth because they think that's right. *snort* It's ridiculous.

All you have is propaganda and insults.

How many prolife advocates have you recruited with these tactics?

And how many babies and mothers have you helped with these tactics?

what statute? the statute of lunacy? of course a z/e/f cannot be a person because there is no such thing as a z/e/f. a person starts out as a zygote than develops to the level of embryo than a person develops to the level of fetus after birth the person is basically still a fetus only outside of the womb than a person develops to adolescence than adult. people do not transform from adolescent to adult or embryo to fetus. development is gradually with no exact dividing line between levels of development. of course a person can't be a z/e/f because a person cannot be at the levels of development of zygote embryo and fetus all at the same time. z/e/f is an idiotic expression design to trick people into thinking uborn babies are something other than the human beings that they are. in an effort to promote discrimination against unborn babies and the wanton slaughter of people with abortions.

Several actually but in regards to abortion you can take the statute for homicide, since you need to be a person to be murdered (OAPA1861 - incidentally the crimes of abortion, before they were legalised, are within the same statute)

Z/E/F is used to save time typing each stage of development out, I'm sure you know this but whatever. ANyone with a basic understanding of human biology is aware of what happens during pregnancy and they are aware of the fact the zyote/embryo/fetus they carry (at various stages, obviously Rolling Eyes ) is human.

And to qualify - a zygote is not a person, an embryo is not a person, a fetus is not a person.

UMMMM....a fetus outside a woman's womb is still a fetus? NONONONO!!! I don't think so...not even for a preterm baby. The term used for that "developmental stage" is NEWBORN. And NEWBORNS are LEGALLY human BEINGS....meaning individual of another's BODY for life support.

Oh and since we are being sooo corrective, Few...get your developmental stages right: it's:
Ovum, zygote, embryo, fetus, newborn, infant, toddler, preschooler, school age child, preadolescent, adolescent, adult, middle-ager, senior citizen, and then corpse.

it must take a great deal more time to kill a person with an abortion than to write a word. but you seem to have plenty of time for that. and wht dont you abreviate mother or adult and all the other words that are used to describe people?

Because this is an abortion debate forum, and zygote/embryo/fetus is used on an almost daily basis here. You know what the letters stand for - stop whining about it.

yes they stand for a cheap brain washing tactic. a person can only be a zygote or an embryo or a fetus so why not use the word that describes what they are. the word mother and the word people are also used often but you don't abreviate those. you are just using the expression zef to brainwash people into thinking babies are not human beings to further your agenda of slaughtering defenseless humans.

I've explained in another thread why z/e/f is used, and why we don't use just zygote, or just embryo, or just fetus. It isn't always correct since abortions are performed at different stages of the unborn's development. Z/e/f covers all three of those developmental stages without forcing the debator to type out 13 additional characters.

Since when is using a scientific term a brainwashing attempt? Confused Is science so confusing?

And you complain about propaganda? You are showing a DEAD fetus to show that it isn't a person! It may not be a person (because legally it isn't one), but that's like showing a cut up corpse and claiming that is what people look like.

than why not use a/a instead of adult/adolescent that forces the debator to type out 11 additional characters?
