The burden of deconstructing the plain meaning of living human being is up to those who would deny the presumption.

You are going to allow me to define "living human being"?

What if you don't like my definition? Would you have one of your own to proffer?

The issue at hand rebutting the presumption that the human zygote is a living human being. Better yet, as good conservatives, let's adopt the Constitutional word, "person": The zygote is a living human person. That's the presumption that needs to be rebutted.
