of the fetus at that stage, but you were almost making it sound like this combination of cells could develop into most anything; a frog or a pig or a donkey. But of course we all know that that’s not true. As it grows it will become a human. So to me your argument is not really that strong in favor of pro-choice. I think the emphasis should be on the fact that we should all be able to make decisions for our own bodies as every situation is different. As a nurse I’ve heard of women dying because a hospital would not perform abortions in critical situations and transfer of patient caused death to both mother and fetus. There are many situations and many reasons, and those decisions should be up to the woman, often including the advice of her doctor and family. Not strangers wearing black robes who don’t even know her name.
