"...aborts the fetus"

In latin, where the term came from, fetus means newly delivered, offspring, or child.

You support that clearly yet again.
"Save the kitten! Kill the child!"
An... inhuman point of view if I ever saw one.

I found this:

fe·tus Pronunciation Key (fts)
n. pl. fe·tus·es
The unborn young of a viviparous vertebrate having a basic structural resemblance to the adult animal. In humans, the unborn young from the end of the eighth week after conception to the moment of birth, as distinguished from the earlier embryo.

===============

I forget that a fetus was after the 8th week. Please add the word embryo to my previous posts...and also add zygote while you're at it.
But that wasn't my point.
