[QUOTE="dmac1, post: 5017499, member: 60252"] A fetus is not a baby by definition. Whether or not you approve of abortion doesn't change the definition. As long as it is inside the mother, it IS a fetus. It can be wanted or unwanted, but it is still a fetus. And whether or not you believe you have the right to demand that one person allows another person to grow inside them, it is still a fetus until born. If you think you can force a person against her will to supply blood, oxygen, nutrition, etc, then you need to accept that you can be forced to give blood transplants, and possibly liver, kidney, or lung transplants, depending on how far you think you can go in forcing people to provide a life-saving service to another. The term of 'parasite' could be applied to a fetus if you define 'parasite' as an unwanted living organism living off the body of another. And if you think 'god' cares about all the aborted fetuses, then you must believe that no baby would ever die in childbirth, or from diseases, or starvation. [/QUOTE]
