Pro-Choice People: Babies Feel Excruciating Pain During Abortions
(12-27-2018, 03:56 PM)Belsnickel Wrote: Except that fallacy is about arguing something out of context. In this instance, I am actually looking at the context. The claim of the OP is that a fetus at 8 weeks of development can feel excruciating pain. There is no evidence being presented to support that.

However, the use of the word "excruciating", as well as continuing to use the term "baby" to refer to a fetus, is a logical fallacy called argumentum ad passiones. It isn't rooted in evidence or logic, but instead on emotion.

Some would ask what difference does the word excruciating make in the context of the argument. it's simply a variance of a straw man. You are arguing something that is not the point because you have been presented evidence that counters your position. We can compare Red Team Degrees if you wish.
 
As yourself this:

Would you argue if the premise was Babies a fetus feels pain as early as 8 weeks?  If you answer No. then you are on the way the realizing your argue fallacy.
