Is a fertilized chicken egg a chick?
True. A cell that has been fertilized for a matter of hours or days is a cell, or a few cells ... it is not a human being. I understand that many people have a huge moral issue with abortion, and that is their right. However, it is not their right to confuse the facts ... a fertilized cell is just that - a cell. Just as there is a big difference in an omelette and fried chicken ... right?
And something to note: The "morning after pill" is taken the morning after unprotected sex. Where conception may or may not have occurred. Just because a woman takes this pill, does not mean she was pregnant, not by a long shot. So, even if you think of the pill as a form of "abortion", keep in mind that in the vast majority of cases, the woman taking it is not even pregnant.

"All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring; Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king." - J.R.R. Tolkien
