A fertilized chicken egg is not a chicken.
A fertilized chicken egg is fully Gallus gallus (scientific name for the common domestic chicken) and NOTHING else.

An acorn is not a tree.
An acorn is fully Quercus robur, (scientific name for the common Pedunculate Oak) and NOTHING else.

A fertilized human egg is not a human adult.
A fertilized human egg is fully homo sapien and NOTHING else.

Different names for different stages do not result in a different essence.

Most forms of Birth Control have abortifacient properties. The Pill, Depo Provera, Norplant, IUD, The Patch, etc.

Here is a great site with many factual articles on the mechanisms of most forms of so called contraceptives.

It is most important for the Body to have this topic correctly understood.

Since Johnv obviously has a problem with me asking when life starts for a human I'll ask a question that's more easy for him and the rest of you guys to answer. Why is implantation neccessary?
