Your use of the word "peanut" is interesting. I used the following with high school students to whom I gave 'talks' regarding abortion, to illustrate the point that even as a 'seed of life called an embryo', the individual is already there: find a peanut with a whole kernel (an in the shell peanut is most illustrative); carefully open the shell, remove the kernel, and pry the two sides apart; notice that at one end of the halves is a tiny little peanut plant already manifesting the 'branches' of the future above ground peanut plant that will grow into full view, hidden there in the protective recesses of the shell and internal kernel of life.
