a life and alive are not the same thing.

If something is human it is always human.

Not sometimes human. Not human because you feel like it.

What is in a woman's womb when she is pregnant? A human.

Your posts indicate incredible cognitive dissonance.

Human means person. Why does that trigger you?

This is a biologic definition.

I am not triggered. That's a completely obnoxious term and does not apply to my response. A personhood amendment has been rejected repeatedly in my state as a justification for ending abortion access. Personhood has nothing to do with biology. I don't accept it and neither do my fellow Coloradans.

Please point to where I wrote "personhood."

You didn't, and if that wasn't the direction you were headed, I apologize, but it certainly looked that way.

Is that the totality of your argument against abortion? Why does a fetus being human negate a right to abortion?

Usually, although parasites harm their hosts, it is in the parasite's best interest not to kill the host, because it relies on the host's body and body functions, such as digestion or blood circulation, to live.

You have stated that you realize that abortion kills a human.

Others continue to pretend that an abortion kills "potential." That there is literally nothing there. And then state that the pregnant woman needs an abortion to kill that "nothingness." That "potential."

If there is nothing there, what's to kill? And if it is something, then what it is?

Cognitive dissonance. They go back and forth tap dancing about. Sooner or later they'll get it.
