POINT: "The simple fact of the matter is that abortion is murder. What you call a 'fetus' is an unborn baby, a human being, and an abortion is nothing but the deliberate killing of that human being."
COUNTERPOINT: "Murder is the deliberate killing of a human person, and though a fetus is certainly a human /something/, it's hardly a person. The the earliest stages, it is nothing but a mass of cells. Even in the later stages, when it begins to biologically resemble a human person, it still doesn't have anything remotely resembling a human life. It has no hopes, no plans, no concept of self, no stake in its own future. Sentimentalize it all you like, you still can't put a fetus ahead of the woman who carries it."
Can a fetus that is only three months old survive outside the womb? no.
Partial birth abortion IS wrong and that is not what I advocate. Abortion should only be performed in the first three months, after that it shouldn't be allowed.
