In my eyes?

No, I'm referring to biological classifications, this isn't beliefs or opinions.

Science doesn't care about what either of us think, but I'm referring to fact while you're trying to use emotive language to manipulate; as if those who trust women with their own lives/bodies/families support killing babies. It's dishonest to compare what's aborted, typically a >12 week old fetus and often not even big enough to be seen when passed, to a living breathing feeling human being.

As is often said...if only pro-life cared as much about living breathing human beings, actual babies or their parents, as the 'unborn babies' aka a collection of cells without consciousness or feeling.

No ones denying that a fetus is alive, however it can't very well feel, sense, or touch at the point in development when it's likely to be aborted.

Not all abortions are due to unplanned decisions, but even those which are...you think you deserve to let people die, put their health at risk, deny women equality, force people to continue a pregnancy against their will regardless of how severely it could impact their mental health or life, not to mention the feel, sense, and touch of actual children who suffer when born to families who don't want them?

No one wants to do that.

Babies aren't aborted. In most places where abortion is legal its only permitted up to a certain point - eg. in the UK its under 24 weeks, typically the vast majority are carried out within the first few weeks.

People have sex, it's a fundamentalmental drive we have as living beings - that doesn't have to mean giving up your basic human rights in order to be forced to continue a pregnancy against your will, regardless of the risk to you or others.

Then there's rape, sexual abuse, and of course many people DO want to be pregnant but have to seek abortion due to change in circumstances, health reasons, or due to miscarriage.

Your beliefs shouldn't be forced upon anyone.

Yes it is.

The right to safe and legal abortion is a fundamental human right protected under numerous international and regional human rights treaties and national-level constitutions around the world. Abortion falls under bodily autonomy, healthcare, rights to life, liberty, privacy, equality, also freedom from cruel treatment.
