They keep trying to dehumanize the fetus by saying it is not human. I have challenged them in the past to show me where that fetus can be manipulated or changed to be anything other than human. They never answer that challenge. Why? Because there is nothing that can be introduced anytime during the pregnancy that would change that human fetus into anything else. It would only kill it.
If it wasn't human, what need would there be for an abortion? It's really that simple. You can't end something that hasn't begun. That's why they don't call removing a dead baby an abortion. It's why they don't call removing cancer an abortion. It's why they don't call removing necrotic tissue an abortion.
If the fetus isn't alive, there is no need to abort the process of birth, for a birth can't take place without life, and therefore the process already cannot take place. Life doesn't spontaneously appear from nothing. Only life begets life.
So "abortion" is by definition ending life, and a human life at that, which is murder.
