Pro-Life or Pro-Choice? Part 2 : What is a "fetus?"

The word is Latin based and has this definition: bringing forth of young, hence that which is born, offspring, young still in the womb, the dictionary also gives reference that in humans an embryo is named a fetus after the 2nd month of gestation, when the body structures are in the recognizable form.

Does this mean that the fetus is not a baby? No it does not, here is why. The indication is that what is in the womb is called a fetus due to where it is in the development process. Look at the phrase "bringing forth of young;" when conception occurs the process of "bringing forth young" has started.

Let us have a quick history lesson here. Back when Adolph Hitler was performing the Holocaust, he justified himself by "redefining" who was human and who was not. Hitler had decided that Jews, Blacks, and Gypsies where non-humans, and he also believed that they were considered an "inferior race."

"If I can send the flower of the German nation into the hell of war without the smallest pity for the spilling of precious German blood, then surely I have the right to remove millions of an inferior race that breeds like vermin."
Adolf Hitler

What does this have to do with Pro-Life or Pro-Choice? Very simple. After the 1973 decision of Roe v Wade, many groups have tried to "redefine" what has always been known to be in the womb. Instead of calling the life inside a human woman a baby or a child, they decided to call it a fetus. So when decision time came, they could say "well you are terminating a fetus. " Which doesn't sound as bad as "well your killing your child."

Redefinition makes a big difference. There is also another logical way to look at this. If you do not get an abortion. Will something other than your baby child come out? Will that fetus turn into something else? Kind of insults your intelligence don't you think?

Well, I would like to leave you with another Hitler saying, I think you will find it interesting:

"Make the lie big, make it simple, keep saying it, and eventually they will believe it."
Adolf Hitler

Note: At 10 days, a baby's spinal cord and heart are being formed, by the 3rd week the baby's heart is pumping blood on its own.
