Oh Kenneth, you always like to quote people out of context.  It is so much
more fun that way, isn't it?  You know I was just commenting on the use
of the term "human", pointing out that many things that are human are killed
so it might be more useful to debate whether a fetus is a person or not rather
than whether it is human or not.  Of course, it is human!
Hey!  I was giving you guys a point, why are you objecting now?

Well, YOU made the comparison, not me.  A 2 month old fetus cannot live
unless attached to its mother either, while you're at it.  An eight month
old fetus on the other hand, might, but who wants to abort 8 month old
fetuses anyway?
