If I was wrong, you would have explained what he meant, but, since you can't, I'm obviously not wrong.
That is only one possible interpretation. Another would be that bfine asserted that the unborn would "most likely disagree." This assigns a level of cognition to a zygote/embryo/fetus that they lack. Therefore, the challenge from Fred could be rooted in the idea that the unborn simply couldn't disagree because they lack cognition and so projecting such thoughts onto them is disingenuous.
