Science is not an opinion. You are choosing to deny science, and deny truth, because they both make you out to be a very dishonest and shitty person.
and the opinion of lots of people (I suspect a huge majority of Americans)...
Irrelevant. Science is not a popularity contest.
that a fetus is not a living human being.
"There you go again!" (as the late Ronald Reagan would say)
Once again, you are inserting words into the questioning that are quite simply not there.
Questions about its "species" are irrelevant.
The question contains the word 'human', which is the specific species that is being discussed. Questions about species are completely relevant in this discussion.
What is the species if not human? (you've already admitted to the fetus being human)
Yes, the LIVING HUMAN being discussed is in the fetal stage of human development.
In any case, it is a unique situation. The fetus is in the body of a single person...the woman in whose body the pregnancy is occurring...
What's unique about that situation? It happens all the time upon pregnancy.
and that woman should have the right to [kill a living human who has committed no crime nor has expressed any desire to die in order to convenience another living human].
A REALLY shitty position to take if you ask me... especially because you quickly dive away from it the very moment that YOUR life is the subject of discussion...
You...and many others...disagree.
Irrelevant. Science is not a popularity contest.
Fine. You will fight to have your opinion prevail...and I will fight to have mine prevail. We'll see who wins.
Science is not an opinion or a fight.
Now you're sooooo angry that you're referring to science as "crap".
... and a tugboat is a tugboat... and a mosquito is a mosquito... and a light is a light. VERY GOOD!
a living human is a living human
... and a dead cat is a dead cat... and a living porcupine is a living porcupine... and a dead fly is a dead fly... VERY GOOD!
who at one time was a fetus.
Correct (as living human has been defined here).
While [the living human] was a fetus...[the living human] was not a living human.
Interesting...... How does THAT work, exactly?? Please advise.
I am saying as clearly as possible that a fetus IS NOT A LIVING HUMAN.
Clearly as possible?? hahahahaha You have outright rejected logic at this point to continue running away from the truth.
[1] What species is the fetus, if not human?
[2] What does the presence of a fetal heartbeat signify, if not life?
It is a fetus. And even if it were deemed to be a human...
One of your countless paradoxes at this point... You've already admitted the fetus to be a human, but now you are denying it... Which is it?
it would be a human in such a unique situation...
What is soooooo unique about a sperm joining an egg, forming a zygote, forming an embryo, forming a fetus which eventually exits his/her mother's womb upon birth? Seems to me to be the common way that human childbirth occurs, eh?
as to not have the kind of right you want to grant it.
Irrelevant.
While it is still in the body of the woman in whose body the pregnancy is occurring...it is a fetus. Even if it were deemed to be a human (which it isn't)...it would be a human in such a unique situation...as to not have the kind of right you want to grant it.
You have now resorted to chanting repetitious phrases in an effort to ward off the science and truth that you so desperately hate. Doesn't work that way, dude...
It is a fetus of the species homo sapiens. So what?
Continued paradox. Now you're back to claiming that the fetus IS a human, after claiming that it isn't, after claiming that it is, after claiming that it isn't... ... ... WHICH IS IT?!
Yes. But so what?
Yes, but so what?
I have already done that above.
Continued paradoxes... Continued evasion of the questions asked of you.
The question of the fetus in the pregnancy occurring in a woman's body is so unique as to preclude it from having the kind of right you want to grant it.
Continued chanting.
With apologies to Dr. R. D. Laing:
You are playing a game. The game you are playing is that of not playing a game. But those of us with a functioning brain see that you are playing that game.
I am enjoying watching you play it. I am especially watching how you cannot handle the frustration ensuing because it is so transparent.
Projection.
