I never understand how a fetus is just a useless lump of tissue but a baby is somehow not just a useless lump of tissue.

I am not trying to let semantics forge an enemy because I agree with essentially everything you are saying, I just don't get how a fetus isn't a life. I just think that different lives have different values. If not at conception, when does a fetus become a life? At conception is a fetus not homo sapien? At conception is a fetus not alive?

I have a theory on this, and it's based only on personal experience. When the baby is born, he takes his first little breath in this world after a hard journey for both mother and child, and everybody in the room, including experienced doctors and nurses are immediately awestruck and in love with that little new soul that just took on life.

Prior to that beautiful and painful moment, a fetus is part of a woman's body. That's just how nature designed us.

It's depressing to see first hand how terrible our high school biology in this country is, get a grip on reality.
