"So they ( pro-life peeps ) say abortion is murder . Of course , you can only murder people . So their rule is that fetuses ( feti ? ) are people also . But then they ca n't explain why fetuses are n't listed on the US Census , or why there is n't a funeral every time a woman has a miscarriage . Pretty much , along with the rules of having children , you would have to acquire the birth certificate during conception , you would have to pay taxes for children , even if you 're only pregnant , etc . Or am I missing something ? Care to clarify , anybody who disagrees ?"
"Yes , you are missing something . How come age does n't start at conception ? How come when babies are born they are n't 9 months old instead of , well , seconds old ."
