Scolding people won't get you anywhere. This is a teachable moment. Please use your superior powers of grammer and comprehension to enlighten and persuade us on what we were capable of missing.
John Holdren
Either learn grammar (fetus is the subject of the sentence, baby is only in the parenthetical statement) or quit manipulating words into things they don’t say in order to develop a fake rage.
This is embarrassing.

Sorry, I have to say that this is consistent with the title of the article:
"To most biologists, an embryo (unborn child during the first two or three months of development) or a fetus is no more a complete human being than a blueprint is a building. The fetus, given the opportunity to develop properly before birth, and given the essential early socializing experiences and sufficient nourishing food during the crucial early years after birth, will ultimately develop into a human being. Where any of these essential elements is lacking, the resultant individual will be deficient in some respect.”
The above quote denies the humanity of both the fetus (unborn child) and the child after it is born.
You would still fail in my book. As I told my idiot Research Scientist daughter-in-law..."Anyone with any common sense, much less a biology degree such as yours, knows that if you get pregnant, you are going to have a baby. Period. End of discussion." I left her standing there with her mouth hanging open, she has never brought the issue up again.
He is obviously confusing civilised citizens with DemoLiberal immoral menaces to society.
the book goes on to argue that abortion spares "unwanted children" from "undesirable consequences."
There isn't any contradiction. A Zygote is a human, with unique DNA. The fact that it lives within its Mother is the condition known as "pregnancy".
After the fetus is “given the essential early socializing experiences and sufficient nourishing food during the crucial early years after birth, [it] will ultimately develop...”
Nobody’s misreading anything. “Years after birth” the baby will develop into a human being. That’s what it says. You’re the only one here who doesn’t see it.

Imho, he is extremely disturbed and detached from others.
Some will develop into human beings; others will develop into BObots.
How many of you people feel as helpless as I do?
The Left, or at least its 'vanguard', is intelligent enough to focus on the acquisition of that power; Lenin was far more astute than Marx.
Unfortunately, too many public-school trained rubes on the Right share this deluded notion that the state can create positive social goods other than the destruction of state enemies.
Would that it were so. As I have posted numerous times, Americans will be no better at creating a humane socialism than any other people.
The magic is in the power to kill - grasp that and everything else falls into place.
IMHO.
So, as long as it’s a fetus, it’s OK to terminate it. A year after birth, two years, five years, ten years, what’s the limit?
As a matter of fact, discounting LBJ and Tuman who were never vetted through a Democrat Party primary, the last Democrat president who did not attend either an Ivy League College or a Service Academey was Grover Cleveland, who did not go to college at all!
We are in sooooooooo much trouble.
If the RNC and other would just USE all this information. It is being handed to use on a silver platter.
All arguments based on the need to limit population growth depend on the notion that resources are finite.
Most social policies that have been developed by the left in the past 40 years have served to restrict access to resources.
Direct reduction of populations is therefor unnecessary to accomplich the fundamental goal.
This argument has made me think about the asteroid scenario. Or the pandemic scenario? What if we need to get our population up to some critical starting point, so that when the virus comes and wipes out 99.999% of us, there are enough left to populate the planet and start over?
What an effin’ freak!
