Exactly, Steve.

It all comes down to this. As soon as conception takes place, and a unique strand of DNA forms, we have an individual unique and separate from it’s parents.

This first cell is unlike any in a woman’s body. This cell is the start of a new human. Right away it starts building itself.

Killing it because it hasn’t reached a cetain stage in it DEVELOPMENT, or because it can’t do this or that is not a good reason. We could use the same argument to kill many disabled adults.

-A fertilized egg has the DNA of a unique individual separate from its parents.
-A fertilized egg contains the blue prints for a unique individual. This DNA starts building that person right away.
-A fertilized egg between two human parents is human(it’s not a dog, cat or anything else) and it is alive.
-A fertilized human egg is the start of a human life.

Like I said before, we don’t magically become humans at birth. Who we are is there in our DNA from day one.
