I actually agree with most of your position. HOWEVER, you have stated ".."....I can only shake my head at the stretching of definitions that lets anyone even suggest that the status of a fetus is comparable to that of a group of living humans who can talk, argue and be objectively shown to have as much 'humanity' as their oppressors"
This seems to imply that if a group DOES NOT talk, argue, and be objectively shown to have as much 'humanity' you would agree that they are not fully human. Please clarify- THAT I will NOT agree with.
