Regardless of the 'law of the land', and 'human rights' issues, I can't see how a fetus isn't a human.

From a strictly scientific point of view, if a scientist studied an aborted baby, he would find something that has a human brain, heart, lungs, nervous system, every single attribute of a human, even complete human DNA, I mean what else could it be? A radish?

In fact it must be human since some people harvest aborted babies for stem cell research.

I don't think it makes sense to say it isn't human because it couldn't survive without oxygen from its mother (ie: not through lungs)

The fact is, once you have a baby, if you don't feed it every 2 hours or so, it will die. It is just as helpless as when in the womb. Human babies are completely 'useless' and unable to survive on their own.
