If people would start debating with cold, hard facts and not their emotions we would win this war. Good for you for planting the seed. You forgot one point though. Fetus is Latin for Unborn Offspring and the definition is... : an unborn or unhatched vertebrate especially after attaining the basic structural plan of its kind; specifically : a developing human from usually three months after conception to birth. The word Fetus does not prove or mean it's not a Human.

If it's not your DNA, it's not your body and therefore not your choice.

The word Fetus does not prove or mean it's not a Human.

a friend kept repeating to me a phrase to this effect: "it's Fetus, NOT a person."

i pointed out in response that the terms "Fetus" and "person" are no more mutually exlusive than the terms "adolescent" and "person", or "adult" and "person".

The term "Fetus", like "adolescent" and "adult", refers to the stage of developement of a person, NOT to the absence of personhood.
