You seem very opinionated about a group you obviously know very little about. All your little assertions about what this groups believes and why they believe is really amusing. The funny thing is your self-righteous rants and your proclamations about other people’s motives remind me of the more unhinged Christians fanatics I know. They tell me that the pro-choicers don’t really care about choice or women’s health they just want to be able to kill unwanted babies. That if they could get away with they would let mother’s drown them at birth if they wanted to. You are pretty much the pro-choice version of that.
I know you really don’t care how offense to some people what you have been saying might be since you have your righteousness to justify it but you really come off as a self important blow hard talking out his ass about subjects he doesn't really know much about. Stick to trying to describe what you believe and you might do better.
By the way the way a zygote is alive by any definition of the word that hasn't been politicized and it is a human so there for it is a human life. I know people have come with some contrived definitions of life that would rule out zygotes but those are political constructs and have nothing to do with science. I have yet to see anyone come with a valid definition of life that doesn’t include the entire life cycle of an organism. Zygote is a stage in life cycle of humans and a zygote is no less human than any other human in any other stage. Now you can argue that is a human life without value but saying which humans get to live and which should die based on their value is a very dangerous game. The list of the unworhty can grow.
Personally I am on the fence on the whole issue I just found your bad logic and your flawed proclamations about what other people felt annoying. The problem is there are valid arguments to made on both sides but the less opened minded and more radical on both sides are to blinded by the light of the surety to see they create strawmen to fight and feel reassured when they beat those stawmen.
