Lol I'm going by science. Not by you guys emotions.
I meant things like breathing.
Even the bible states adam wasnt a man until he took his first breath
So what level of independence is needed for you to define a person?
And during the later periods of gestation the fetus, baby, whatever breathes amniotic fluid
Once again the world is not black and white and the Bible is not a scientific reference book.
At what point does the fetus become a baby?
There are other distinct stages of development from when the sperm and egg form a zygote so why not a distinction as to when a fetus become a baby?
IMO viability outside the womb becomes a factor and our current level of techno;ogy should be considered in that determination.
There is a vast difference between the developmental stages of very early pregnancy and later pregnancy so to say that there is no difference one minute before birth from 1 minute after the egg is fertilized is ridiculous
