And you base that arbitrary standard on what science, exactly?
According to science, no one human being has two hearts.
Who said they did? The question was - and thank you so much for trying to dodge it - on what science do you base your arbitary opinion (as though the existence of life is a mere opinion) that "a fetus is a baby when I can hear two heartbeats"? What was the fetus before? And before you answer, please remember to show your science for THAT opinion, too.
You may not have noticed that I said when "I can hear two heartbeats." That does not include using ultrasound or a stethoscope.
"As early as the sixth week of pregnancy, when the embryo is four weeks old, a vaginal ultrasound may detect a fetal heartbeat and show it as a regular flutter, says the American Pregnancy Association. By the seventh week, detection of a heartbeat is likely. You can hear your unborn baby's heartbeat with a stethoscope by 17 to 20 weeks of pregnancy."
Amazingly enough, "But I'm counting it REALLY EARLY" in no way answers the questions.
One more time for the cojone-impaired, and let's see if you can address it head-on and honestly this time: on what science do you base your opinion that a fetus is a baby when it has a heartbeat? If it wasn't a baby before that, what was it? And whatever your answer to that second question, what is the science for THAT?
I gave you my opinion and if you have to resort to insults you can kiss my ass.
I saw that you gave me your opinion. Twice. Problem is, I didn't ask for your opinion. I asked you for the science. Hence the insults, hence the "Oh, thank GOD, I can get my panties in a ruffle and storm away before I'm forced to answer questions!" non-response.
Look, if you pulled your beliefs out of your ass without reference to science, just say so.
