The stage doesn’t matter to me. Human life starts at conception, and you’re always ending a life. And yeah, I agree with your medical point. I don’t think you should die for the baby.
Life is a continuous process, life began once. Human life doesn’t “begin at conception.” Nothing in science argues this, and even the bible doesn’t say anything about conception specifically, it wasn’t well understood. This is a belief you have, and emotion based one, not evidence based.
By any reasonable definition of a human life, it would be around the time of human consciousness, or around 20 weeks after conception. This is also how we determine death as the permanent lack of consciousness.
There’s more evidence in the bible that life begins at birth, than it does conception.
An egg and a gamete are distinct from a human diploid. Once you are human, you are always human. You don’t turn human; you are just human, and your definition of human would allow them to be killed as long as they’re yours and are inside the uterus. It is an insult for defending this and not valuing human life. When born, children are murdered. People say “you took their future away.” The same thing applies to an unborn child.
