120. You deny a fact when you say a zygote, embryo or fetus is human.

There's no OPINION about it. Human sperm and human ova can only combine to form a human zygote. Didn't you ever study biology?

Environment affects us, certainly, but otherwise, everything you are today was in your genotype the moment you were conceived. Your sex, your hair color, your eye color, etc., all come from the chromosomes you were born with, which are identical to the chromosomes in the zygote you began as. Look it up if you don't believe me.

Scientists may differ as to the morality of abortion but no scientist can seriously say a fetus is not human.
