There is no doubt that a zygote of the species Homo sapiens is a
reproductive phase in the life cycle of that species. That's the
hard science. But that does not address the sociopolitical issues
of personhood and individual rights in the context of abortion.

{American jurors have complete Constitutional authority to vote
"not guilty" based on nothing more than a disagreement with the
case, no matter the evidence - despite the judge's instructions.
There is absolutely no obligation to vote "guilty" to arrive at a
unanimous verdict. Get on a jury, stand your ground, and fulfill
its other main purpose: to counteract abusive government and
unjust lawsuits.

You can, I just ask why Paul as it makes no sense. I mention them
to
parady your mention of a tree and an acorn, to remind you of what
you are undoubtedly smart enough to realize with out reminding,
that
your speaking of things that bear no relation to the point in
question. An Acorn is like the egg, not the fetus, when the acorn
hits the earth and germinates it becomes a sappling. There is no
relevance here.
Now as for your mention of a zygote, it is irelavent to your
position in the point that we were discussing because:
If you were capable of proving a zygote is not human (wich you
did
not offer any proof to) it would not show one way or anouther if
a
fetus is human or not.
Further more, if it were shown that a zygote is human it would
directly imply that a fetus is. Such backtracking in the process
does not strengthen your position at all, yet has the potential
to
strengthen mine. Such retreat would never be done voluntary with
out
the acting parties realization that they are fighting a losing
battle.
