As bizarre as it may sound to you and me, one of the most common arguments used by young pro-abortion advocates is the claim that the unborn child is nothing more than a parasite. This attempted justification falls flat when faced with the definition of parasite which states that a parasite is “An organism that lives and feeds on or in an organism of a different species and causes harm to its host.” The unborn baby is obviously not of another species, unless abortion advocates wish to argue that humans give birth to penguins. Regardless, the unborn baby will send fetal stem cells to the mother’s body helping to repair damaged tissue including organs. The unborn baby is a human being made in God’s image, not a parasite.
