They can't admit in any way that it's really a life in there, because then ending that life would be doing something bad.
They call it a fetus, or embryo, or sack of cells...anything but the terms "life" or "baby".
I remember very well when my wife was pregnant. I don't ever remember referring to my baby as a fetus, embryo, or a sack of cells.
No, they argue whether it's a baby or not because they truly don't believe it's a baby.
Just like you have certain beliefs that may not be able to be 100% proven.
This is one of the arguments that will never have a true ending because there is no absolute, set definition for "when life begins", no matter how much anyone on either side wants to claim.
I always referred to what was inside of my pregnant wife to be a baby as well, but that's because it would sound awkward to call it a "sack of cells", even if it IS just a sack of cells at that point. The fact that it's commonly accepted to call it a baby, no matter what stage it's at, doesn't mean it's technically, factually a baby.
I don't know when life begins, but the difference between us is that I'm willing to admit that.
