The Jewish attitude about a fetus is vague. There are some provisions that treat a fetus as a living person, but in the case of a stillbirth or a miscarriage the fetus is regarded as never having lived and therefore a number of religious laws and rituals applicable to a baby who died after drawing a breath are not applicable.

"The Jewish attitude about a fetus is vague."
Would you please explain what this means. I think the Torah is very clear.

There is nothing "vague" about where the Torah stands on abortion. Hair splitting here is ridiculous, Herr Clintone.
