Pro-Abortion is Anti-Science
Part of the argument from the pro-abortion crowd has been that the zygote/fetus is not a human, but is merely a lump of tissue --a mass. In their view, removing this from the womb is akin to having an unsightly mole removed. They also hold that humanhood is not achieved until some undetermined magical point later in the pregnancy term. For some extremists, that point doesn't arrive until the completion of birth, and some even deny that it's even human until then. However, these views fly in the face of undeniable science, from which we know that each human bears a unique genome, made up of the parental chromosomes joined at the moment of conception. A DNA test of a freshly fertizlied human egg would show that even the first single cell is both related and unique to the biological parents, and just as complete. No mere fleshy growth has different DNA than its host. And no fleshy growth can ever continue into a fully formed human when given only sufficient nutrition and time. From a scientific standpoint, there can be no argument against the "growth" being anything less than a unique and instant human. The problem is with the popular notion of "human." The proper definition must undeniably include the moment of conception. There was a time when blacks were denied human status. To deny a zygote its rightful status is to be just as dishonest.
